The majority of the nation's energy TS&D infrastructure is sited along the Gulf Coast, including waterways, ports, distribution terminals, railroads, pipelines, electric transmission stations, and petrochemical facilities. As the largest consumer of energy in the U.S., DoD has significant equity in the resiliency, reliability, and security of energy TS&D infrastructure.
Port Fourchon has significant petroleum industry traffic from offshore Gulf oil platforms and drilling rigs as well as the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port pipelineessential to U.S. security interests.
Port Fourchon's primary service markets are domestic deepwater oil and gas exploration, drilling, and production in the Gulf of Mexico. Port Fourchon currently services over 90% of the Gulf of Mexico's deepwater oil production.
