Gulf Oil Rigs and Hurricanes
Published Wednesday, September 21, 2005 by CCAer | E-mail this post

We have all experienced the effects of a hurricane tearing through the gulf, if only by a subsequent rise in oil prices. Now you can see part of the reasons why a hurricane affects the production of oil so much.
RigLogix and
RigZone have
a couple of interactive maps showing the location of oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico and hurricane tracks. Click on the
Hurricane Katrina button and see a map of damaged oil rigs. Identify an oil rig and get an update on the repair time. The
Hurricane Rita map doesn’t list damaged rigs but shows a more complete list of the rigs in the Gulf. Something to watch over the next few days as Hurricane Rita passes through.
