Bryan Mound Strategic Petroleum Reserve

Strategic bulk liquid storage on the Texas Gulf Coast

We operate integrated tank storage and terminalling infrastructure at Freeport, Texas — combining above-ground tank farms, solution-mined salt cavern capacity, marine access and pipeline interconnects into one dependable system for crude oil and refined products.

Bulk liquid storage is a promise: that the product will be there, in specification, when it is called for. Everything we build is aimed at keeping that promise — maintained assets, documented operations, and a workforce that treats process safety as non-negotiable.

From receipt through segregation, blending and redelivery, our terminal handles each movement with metered accuracy and full chain-of-custody records.

  • Above-ground and cavern storage
  • Marine, rail, truck and pipeline outbound
  • Real-time inventory and audit-ready records
  • 24/7/365 terminal operations

The Bryan Mound position sits on a subsurface salt dome on the Texas coastal plain, roughly 2,000 feet below the surface — geology that allows vast caverns to be solution-mined and used for secure bulk storage.

Above ground, the terminal is served by pipeline connections, marine berths at Freeport and overland loading, giving customers multiple independent routes to market.

Our track record

Storage built to national scale

Decades of continuous development on one of the most significant bulk liquid storage positions in the United States.

  1. Foundation

    A salt dome selected for strategic storage

    Bryan Mound is developed on a Gulf Coast salt dome to provide secure, large-volume liquid storage — the geology being the asset.

  2. Expansion

    Caverns and surface tankage brought online

    Solution-mined caverns and above-ground tank farms are progressively commissioned to create one of the largest storage complexes in the country.

  3. Connectivity

    Marine and pipeline links established

    Connections to Freeport port facilities, neighbouring tankage and large-bore trunk pipelines integrate the site with the wider Gulf Coast market.

  4. Today

    Maintained, instrumented and ready

    Modern metering, SCADA, integrity management and an experienced operations organisation keep capacity available on demand.

Safety is the licence to operate

No volume, schedule or commercial target takes precedence over the safe control of hydrocarbons. Every member of our team — and every contractor on site — holds the authority to stop work.
