Deepwater
Information
The deepwater portion of Gulf of Mexico has shown a remarkable increase in oil and gas
exploration, development and production. In part this is due to the development of
new technologies reducing operational costs and risks, as well as the finding of
reservoirs with high production wells. There are about 90 announced Gulf deepwater
prospects--the Gulf operators have been setting and surpassing records in water depth and
length using new and improved proven technology.
