Port Overview
The Port of Houston is a 25-mile-long complex of diversified public and private facilities located just a few hours sailing time from the Gulf of Mexico. The port is ranked first in the United States in foreign waterborne commerce, second in total tonnage, and seventh in the world.
Barbours Cut Container Terminal is located at the mouth of Galveston Bay and is three and one half hours' sailing time from the Gulf of Mexico. The terminal's six berths provide 6,000 ft. of continuous quay. Twelve wharf cranes ensure efficient and reliable handling of containers. The facility also includes a RoRo platform, a LASH dock, 230 acres of paved marshaling area and 255,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space and acres of open marshaling and storage area.
The Turning Basin Terminal is a multipurpose complex located 8 miles from downtown Houston and serves as the navigational head of the Houston Ship Channel, just 50 miles from the Gulf of Mexico. The banks along this section of the channel are lined for 2.5 miles downstream with an alternating arrangement of open wharves and docks backed by transit sheds and warehouses. This makes the Turning Basin ideal for direct discharge and direct loading operations. Each year, some 2,800 ship and barge calls are recorded at the Turning Basin Terminal's 37 docks. These docks are equipped to handle just about any type of break bulk, containerized, project or heavy-lift cargoes. This terminal also is equipped for handling large, odd-shaped cargoes, long-term project cargo and vehicles.
