Distance is measured from the centre of the listed companies in that city, so it reflects where the companies actually are rather than where the city hall is. Where a bigger gateway sits within about 45 km of the closest facility we name the gateway, because that is the market a shipper means — a Houston suburb works through Houston, not through the nearest rail siding. None of this means a particular company has told us it serves that port.
