“Of all races in an advanced stage of civilization, the American is the least accessible to long views… Always and everywhere in a hurry to get rich, he does not give a thought to remote consequences; he sees only present advantages… He does not remember, he does not feel, he lives in a materialist dream.”
—Moiseide Ostrogorski (1902, 302-303)

However my worst case scenario indicates that GOM and other high technology old producing regions should be declining fairly rapidly now.
Memmel, Prof. G.
That would be a good subject for a write up.
GOM - 3 Years Later
With all the post Kat-Rita damage at the time, and how much was impared, it would be a great study to take a clinical look now.
How much was lost?
How much capacity was/will never be reclaimed?
Dollar amount of loss?
etc.
Just Sayin...
I found a wealth of data on the DOE website. I'd have to dig up the links but I posted them here a few times. Simmons has given several talks on the issue.
Bringing it all together is a bear since their is a treasure trove of data and a number of good summary papers exist.
Short summary is if the rest of the world that has invested in advanced extraction methods follows the decline patterns seen in the GOM we are fucked.
And sorry to use such language but...
