Clearwater Port is proud to offer a progressive alternative for meeting the natural gas needs of Ventura County and California. It combines a safe, environmentally sound approach – using existing infrastructure to preserve the coastal experience and supply affordable clean energy to consumers sooner – with the energy expertise and experience to continue the over 40-year safety record of transporting liquefied natural gas.

The Clearwater Port vision is as straightforward as it is innovative: Transform an existing off-shore oil platform – 12.6 miles off-shore – into a safe, state-of-the-art natural gas receiving terminal . Clearwater Port preserves California's coastal experience and the ocean horizon – instead of building a new structure off the coast. And since Clearwater Port will not have on-site gas storage, construction time will be shorter and costs will be lower, supplying Ventura County and California with more affordable natural gas sooner than other proposals.

Clearwater Port will be operated as a low cost natural gas service provider and will not own or control natural gas supply delivered through its facility. This means that Clearwater Port will serve the interests of California's natural gas consumers by increasing competition among natural gas suppliers, inspiring competitive pricing and supply reliability.

By moving Ventura County and California from the back to the front of natural gas supply lines, Clearwater Port will provide reliable access to enough to help protect against price spikes – and to help spur the shift to the cleaner alternative fuel vehicles of today, and to be a bridge to the most promising renewable energy technologies of the future.
