OK, I'll buy a weeks shutdown from a cat 1.
Whats a cat 2 going to do, given Janet in 1955 hit Yucatan as a cat 5 and exited west as cat 2 ?

ianwhitechurch,
I have no personal knowledge of the design standards of offshore platforms in the area, but hurricanes are not rare. Pemex has 13,000 workers that have been evacuated, I would susoect that it will take a week after the hurricane passes to get them back and things back to normal, and the hurricane is still in the Carribean moving west at 20 mph, according to www.weatherunderground.com
I expect lower production through Sept. 1
