CSX offers a full range of solutions to help you move crude oil to your destination. Shipping crude oil by rail is an efficient choice that makes it easier to access your target markets.

Integrating rail into your supply chain is easier with CSX.  A new facility can be up and running within a year, and alternative solutions are available immediately. You may choose to use rail alone or in combination with other shipping modes such as pipeline or waterborne transportation. No matter the solution, CSX will provide the same operational support and excellent service that our customers have come to expect.

When you choose CSX as your crude oil shipping partner, the network options available include:

Refinery Direct

Our refinery direct solution provides low per-barrel transportation cost by minimizing product handling, terminal and additional costs. We offer plant track design services and in many cases a refinery direct solution can be up and running in as little as four months.

Terminal

Interested in building a crude oil terminal or accessing an existing terminal? CSX has experience building and serving crude oil terminals throughout our network. Depending on the location, terminals can be up and running within three months.
