Growth, in population, in production, and in bettering living conditions, requires energy.Texas is providing that energy now and experiencing incredible growth ourselves in meeting the world demand.
Because Texas is shipping out increasing volume of products roaring into coastal refineries as sweet crude from the Permian Basin.Production keeps increasing, the pipelines are growing, and that is now testing the capacity of the Texas port system to handle the demand for not just refined, but also crude exports.
Texan David Blackmon writes about this in Forbes.
You probably have your own eyewitness awareness of what’s happening along our Texas coast; the influx of workers, commercial traffic, tankers, construction vehicles, road building and billions of dollars of refinery and shipping capacity on the increase.I just hope there’s a silver lining to all this black gold industry.
