Chris Oynes Gas Quotations

The overall damage caused by hurricanes Katrina and Rita has shown them to be the greatest natural disasters to oil and gas development in this history of the Gulf of Mexico.

Last year continued to be a strong year for deep-water activity in the Gulf of Mexico. There is intense interest in oil and gas potential in the deep water.

The Gulf of Mexico, back in the early 1990s, they called it the dead sea. That's not true anymore. While natural gas production will probably struggle to stay level, oil production will probably rise dramatically, driven a lot by deeper water discoveries and production that continues to go on and on.
