Marine Tank Terminal in the Heart of the Houston Ship Channel
The Gulf Coast's Most Strategically Positioned Terminal
Ameritank operates a 147-acre liquid tank terminal at 2012 Miller Cut Off Road in La Porte, Texas — directly on the Houston Ship Channel. Our site handles crude oil, refined petroleum products, petrochemicals, and LPGs with infrastructure built for serious throughput: 840 MW of power capacity, 4 billion gallons of annual water access, and Foreign Trade Zone 84 designation.
Surrounded by ExxonMobil, Kinder Morgan, Enterprise Products, and Chevron Phillips, we sit within reach of 60% of U.S. refining capacity and the largest petrochemical complex in the Western Hemisphere.
Why Major Traders and Producers Choose Ameritank
Purpose-built infrastructure for every liquid commodity — crude, chemicals, refined products, and LPGs — with duty-free flexibility and true multimodal access.
Foreign Trade Zone 84
Defer, reduce, or eliminate customs duties on imported crude, chemicals, and petroleum products. Pay duties only when product enters U.S. commerce — or never, if re-exported or used in manufacturing. A strategic advantage for international traders and refiners managing global inventory.
Industrial-scale power & utilities
840 MW of power capacity and 4 billion gallons of annual water access support the most demanding storage operations — heated tanks for heavy crudes, refrigerated storage for LPGs, and high-throughput pumping for chemicals. Infrastructure that matches your operational scale.
True multimodal connectivity
Union Pacific Class I rail with unit train capability. Deepwater barge access on the Houston Ship Channel for Panamax vessels. 24/7 truck loading racks. Move crude, chemicals, or refined products by any mode — without bottlenecks or delays.
Extensive Pipeline Network
Your product arrives by rail, barge, or truck. We verify quality and assign tank space based on your specifications and our current capacity.
