The new high mark primarily can be attributed to a jump in crude oil exports. The Port of Corpus Christi saw a 3.1 percent increase in crude oil shipments (to nearly 31.1 million tons) compared to Q1 2023.<\/p>\n<p>For the first six months of 2023, the Port of Corpus Christi has moved 99.3 million tons, a 10.3 percent increase from the same period in 2022. The leading commodities for the first half of this year are crude oil, petroleum products and dry bulk commodities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe continued growth in goods movements is testament to the strength of our Port of Corpus Christi customers and their capacity to meet the energy needs of our global trading partners and allies,\u201d said Kent Britton, Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for the Port of Corpus Christi. \u201cThe infrastructure growth of the past decade in this region has our customers well positioned for success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In July, the Port of Corpus Christi saw the completion of Phase 2 of the four-phase Corpus Christi Ship Channel Improvement Project (CIP), a national critical infrastructure project that will render the Corpus Christi Ship Channel the most improved in the entire U.S. Gulf Coast from Texas to Florida. The third phase should be completed in 2023, and the fourth and final phase is out for bid and expected to be awarded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers by October 2023.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_12122\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12122\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12122\" src=\"https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/24033_Port_22_Web-Updates_click-through_2_700x500-700x334-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/24033_Port_22_Web-Updates_click-through_2_700x500-700x334-1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/24033_Port_22_Web-Updates_click-through_2_700x500-700x334-1-400x191.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/24033_Port_22_Web-Updates_click-through_2_700x500-700x334-1-440x210.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.findadistributor.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/24033_Port_22_Web-Updates_click-through_2_700x500-700x334-1-650x310.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-12122\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Port of Corpus Christi\u2019s customers moved nearly 50 million tons of goods through the Corpus Christi Ship Channel in Q2 2023.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe continued success of the Coastal Bend energy corridor is due largely to the hard work and dedication of our Port of Corpus Christi customers,\u201d said Charles W.
