About this listen

Host Jennifer Crockett interviews Chett Chiasson, Executive Director of Port Fourchon, a vital hub for the U.S. energy sector. The discussion centers on the port's critical role in servicing over 95% of the Gulf of Mexico’s deepwater energy production and its significance as a major economic driver for Louisiana. Chiasson shares insights into the $60 billion in energy and emissions reduction investments reported by Louisiana Economic Development and the jobs being created to satisfy this growing sector of the industry. He highlights surprising aspects of the port, like construction of an island to expand port access, and exciting upcoming projects, including Shell’s exploration of drone cargo deliveries, which could revolutionize logistics.
