tlas of Gulf of Mexico Gas and Oil Sands
The
Atlas documents principal geologic and engineering characteristics of natural
gas and oil sands of the offshore northern Gulf of Mexico basin.
The objectives of the Atlas are to
·
organize all Federal OCS
offshore gas and oil sands in the GOM into plays on the basis of geologic and
engineering parameters;
·
illustrate and describe each play
and typical sands within each play;
·
tabulate sands to include
descriptive and quantitative summaries of play characteristics, cumulative
production, reserves, and various other engineering and geologic data; and
·
provide the spatial location of
plays, fields, and sands through a computerized geographic information system
(GIS) available on CD-ROM.
As part of our ongoing mission, it is our
goal to provide periodic updates of the extensive reserves and production
database, maps, and text that are presented in each Atlas. The first Atlas was
based on January 1, 1995, data and the most
recent publication was based on January 1, 1999, data. An Atlas has not been
compiled or published since, but tabular files for subsequent data sets are
available for download by clicking on the link below.
