The article states that the Corpus Christi port has grown by more than 238 percent since 2013 – nearly double the next entry on the list. Port of Corpus Christi CEO Kent Britton points to a combination of factors for that kind of growth, saying the biggest is the increased production of oil and gas coming out of West Texas. The port's ongoing success also is a plus for the city of Corpus Christi. “How exciting is it that Corpus Christi is mentioned numerous times in that Forbes article, bringing awareness to the city," Hurlbert said.
