The Oil Drum: Gulf Oil Production/Katrina Weather/Map Update

This whole Katrina thing could be a really big deal, not just because New Orleans is a prime target under the current models for Katrina, but she could also disrupt Gulf supplies of petroleum, both from rigs and from refineries, for a while.

The first graphic is probability swath for Katrina with the recently damaged Thunder Horse platform as the red dot, and the other purple dot represents the Mad Dog development that will ramp up to 100,000 bd; the Holstein development that will also produce, at peak, around 100,000 bd of oil; and the Atlantis field that will begin production next year and will ramp up to around 200,000 bd in all.
