Stop the Sea Port Oil Terminal before it spills!

The Seaport Oil Terminal (SPOT) and Texas Gulflink are two massive crude oil exports projects proposed for the Gulf of Mexico Coast.

With just 7 miles between them, SPOT and Gulflink would consist of a crude oil storage facility, onshore and offshore pipelines, and an oil export terminal where crude oil would be loaded onto  Massive supertankers called VLCCs for export.

SPOT and its VLCCs would load 2 million barrels/day of oil -- more crude oil than is currently produced on all the Gulf Coast offshore drilling platforms annually. Since the crude oil export ban was lifted in 2015, there's been a rush to develop and esport more and more crude from Texas and the nearby Permian Basin -- driving up prices at the pump, and global warming pollution at the same time.

Unless we stop it, SPOT will increase fossil fuel production and global warming pollution from a region that's already the largest carbon bomb on the planet. Oil companies are racing to be the first to profit from foreign demand for oil, and the international markets are rapidly building refineries. Meanwhile, communities and the planet bear the brunt of the costs and damages that these hastily built projects bring.
