Oil and Gas Platforms in the Gulf of Mexico from BOEM

Metadata Updated: October 6, 2023

Point location for oil and gas installations in federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico are presented. This layer was converted from GIS data acquired from the U. S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) website. We note that platforms are being added and removed continuously, thus regular updates of this data base are required to know the true distribution of platforms. The current layers are non-projected with coordinates in decimal degrees.
