About This Seaport
The name Port Socony recalls the Standard Oil Company of New York and still describes the site's job: a petroleum-handling point at Sewaren on the Arthur Kill in New Jersey. Along this oil-lined waterfront — near the large Shell/Motiva terminal — refined products move by barge and through pipeline links (including Colonial) into and out of storage. This is an energy and liquid-bulk location, not a container or breakbulk port: no box, reefer or RoRo services call here. Tank barges and smaller product tankers reach the facilities via the roughly 9.4 m Arthur Kill, with road and rail tying the tank farms into the New Jersey hinterland. For container cargo, Port Newark–Elizabeth is the gateway, while further petroleum terminals operate at Linden, Bayway and Bayonne. For forwarders moving fuels or chemicals, Port Socony is a specialised but narrowly focused call.
