Listed as US RCH, Point Richmond sits on San Francisco Bay and is defined by the Richmond Long Wharf, the tanker terminal serving Chevron's refinery, which processes around 240,000 barrels of crude a day. The wider Port of Richmond is Northern California's most diversified cargo handler and ranks first on the bay for liquid bulk and vehicle tonnage. City-owned and private terminals handle petroleum products, dry bulk, metals, new cars and breakbulk. The channel runs to about 9.4 metres, and the port offers major repair and dry-dock capacity. Containers, however, move through nearby Oakland rather than Richmond. Road and rail connect the port to the Bay Area hinterland.
