Published by DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 10:48 PM | Dataset Last Updated: January 04, 2017 at 12:00 AM
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.
