Wednesday, August 29, 2012
The oil and gas industry continues to monitor Hurricane Isaac as the storm, which made landfall early Wednesday, continues to pound New Orleans and the southeastern Louisiana-southern Mississippi region with heavy winds and rain.
Shell said it expects to begin flyover inspections of its assets on Thursday as weather conditions improve, the company said in a statement Wednesday.
"Once we determine that conditions are safe, we will begin redeploying staff on Friday, August 31 and restarting operations," Shell said.
The company's central and eastern Gulf operations remain fully evacuated with the associated production shut-in, Shell reported.
BP said it was keeping a close eye on the storm to determine when conditions would be safe to redeploy personnel and resume operations.
"However, we cannot yet predict when that will be," the company said in a statement on Wednesday.

RIGZONE - Gulf E&P Activity on Hold as Isaac Drenches Gulf
 
From operator reports, it is estimated that approximately 94.72 percent of the current daily oil production in the Gulf of Mexico has been shut-in. It is also estimated that approximately 71.64 percent of the current daily natural gas production in the Gulf of Mexico has been shut-in. The production percentages are calculated using information submitted by offshore operators in daily reports. Shut-in production information included in these reports is based on the amount of oil and gas the operator expected to produce that day. The shut-in production figures therefore are estimates, which BSEE compares to historical production reports to ensure the estimates follow a logical pattern.
After the hurricane has passed, facilities will be inspected. Once all standard checks have been completed, production from undamaged facilities will be brought back on line immediately. Facilities sustaining damage may take longer to bring back on line. BSEE will continue to update the evacuation and shut-in statistics at 1:00 p.m. CDT each day as appropriate.

Subsea Inspection: The Autonomous Approach
by Jon Mainwaring

Rigzone Staff
Subsea inspection is a hazardous activity that used to be solely the preserve of divers but more recently has seen the deployment of wire-guided remotely-operated vehicles. The latest improvements in technology now promise an era of more stealthy autonomous vehicles that can perform inspection tasks without pesky cables getting in the way.


Last year, Subsea 7 – with help from Scottish software developer Seebyte – announced it had designed and built the world's first commercial 'Autonomous Inspection Vehicle' (AIV). [more]

Fears Confirmed that Isaac Stirred Up Macondo Oil

Thursday, September 06, 2012

Fears that Hurricane Isaac might have stirred up crude oil left over in the Gulf of Mexico after the Deepwater Horizon accident more than two years ago have been confirmed by BP after officials closed a 13-mile stretch of beach Tuesday due to tar balls and oil being reported.

According to the Associated Press, a BP spokesman said late Wednesday that the company was working with the Coast Guard, state officials and land managers to clean up oil on the Fourchon beach on the Louisiana coast and that clean-up crews would be there Thursday.

On Tuesday the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Secretary announced the emergency closure of a portion of coastal waters due the emergence of a large tar mat and concentrations of tar balls on beaches in the area. The LDWF banned all commercial fishing in these waters.

BP still has hundreds of workers operating on the Gulf Coast cleaning up oil that was leaked into the GOM from the Macondo prospect, where Deepwater Horizon was drilling.
