Updated Lease Sale Data Now Available
The U.S. Minerals Management Service Central Gulf of Mexico Lease Sale No. 208 attracted $703 million in high bids from 65 companies. Over US$933.6 million was exposed in the bidding. Over 40 percent of the bids were made on blocks in water depths of over 5,250 feet (1,600 m), reflecting the oil and gas industry's continuing move towards even deeper waters in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar said the responsible energy development resulting from the sale will be a part of our nation's comprehensive energy plan, which will include a renewed emphasis on conservation and an aggressive effort to develop renewable energy resources, so the nation can move towards energy independence.
