Energy services and petrochemical contracting

Houston is a global center for energy company headquarters, oilfield service businesses, and the contractors who build and maintain refineries and petrochemical plants along the Ship Channel. These businesses often need specialized coverage for pollution liability, high-value equipment, and contractual indemnification requirements that go well beyond a standard general liability policy.

Workers' comp exposure here also runs higher than average because of the physical demands and hazards involved in industrial and pipeline work.

A massive trucking and logistics sector

The Port of Houston and the surrounding refining complex support one of the largest trucking and freight networks in the country, and commercial auto coverage for Houston fleets needs to account for heavy traffic, congestion, and high accident-frequency corridors.

Hurricane and flood exposure

Houston's Gulf Coast location means hurricane wind damage and flooding are real risks every storm season, and many businesses learned after past storms that standard property policies don't automatically include flood coverage, which has to be purchased separately.
