EGF Energy Partners Expands with New 13-Acre Acquisition
EGF Energy Partners Acquires 13-Acre Site at Gulf Inland Logistics Park
In a significant development for the logistics and energy sectors, EGF Energy Partners has completed the acquisition of a 13.1-acre rail-served site located at Gulf Inland Logistics Park. This newly acquired property will serve as the base for a terminal and manufacturing facility dedicated to the production of base oils and lubricating oils.
Strategic Advantages of Gulf Inland Logistics Park
Marcus Goering, Principal at Liberty Development Partners, expressed enthusiasm about EGF Energy Partners joining the Gulf Inland community. "Their decision to locate here underscores the strategic benefits offered, such as direct access to the Union Pacific and BNSF rail networks and proximity to the Greater Houston area. Each new tenant enhances our mission of establishing the park as a key player in industrial growth and global logistics within Texas," he stated.
Growth and Development Plans
Established over two decades ago, EGF Energy Partners specializes in manufacturing high-quality lubricants and related products aimed at automotive, industrial, and drilling markets. The family-owned business, headquartered in Houston, has plans for its facility at Gulf Inland. The initial development phase is projected to launch operations within a year and will feature a 20,000-square-foot warehouse with storage capacity exceeding 400,000 gallons, loading racks, and a truck scale. Ultimately, the facility will encompass 60,000 square feet of warehouse space, capable of accommodating up to 800,000 gallons of tankage.
Investing in Efficient Operations
Felix Moreno, Jr., President of EGF Energy Partners, shared excitement regarding this pivotal acquisition. "Our new site, equipped with direct rail access to both Union Pacific and BNSF railroads, will include modern terminal facilities, advanced storage tanks, a transload station, and on-site manufacturing capabilities. This strategic investment will allow us to optimize rail logistics and improve the integration of operations between this new location and our existing Houston site," he elaborated.
Gulf Inland Logistics Park: A Modern Logistics Hub
Gulf Inland Logistics Park is evolving quickly into a pivotal logistics hub, with development racing ahead to meet the increasing demand for logistics space. The first phase, covering 200 acres, is nearly filled with six of the seven lots already sold. Development opportunities for Phase 2 are currently available.
Rail Infrastructure Expansion
The park's rail infrastructure is expanding rapidly. Yard 1 is fully operational with 330 rail storage spaces, and Yard 2 is anticipated to bring an additional 550 spaces by the following year. By early 2026, three more yards will open, offering over 2,000 railcar storage spaces—making it a vital transportation hub for the area.
