Environmentalists who typically supported the Biden administration in its anti-oil and gas moves were dashed this week when the federal government approved what will be the largest supertanker Sea Port Oil Terminal off the coast of Texas.
Environmentalists called it a betrayal by the administration in paving the way for a $1.8 billino project by Enterprise Products Partners of Houston. Once completed, the terminal would have the capabiility of loading two supertankers at once. The project was approved by the Department of Transportation’s Maritime Administration.
It prompted environmental groups to respond in anger, with some suggesting the terminal will lead to “disasterous” plant-warming greenhouse gas emissions reported the Associated Press.
