The purpose of this book is to examine the geospatial and temporal
linkage between offshore supply vessels and oil and gas activity in
the Outer Continental Shelf Gulf of Mexico, and to model OSV
activity expected to result from future lease sales. Oil and gas
operations occur throughout the world wherever commercial
accumulations exist, but no quantitative assessment has ever been
performed on the marine vessels that support offshore activity. The
OCS Gulf of Mexico is the largest and most prolific offshore oil
and gas basin in the world, and a large number of marine vessels
are engaged in operations in the region, but tracking their
activity is difficult and requires specialized data sources and the
development of empirical models. The challenge of modeling arises
from the complexity and size of the system, and the particular
limitations governing stochastic difficult-to-observe networks.
This book bridges the gap with the latest technological perspective
and provides insight and computational methods to inform and better
understand the offshore sector. Offshore Service Industry and
Logistics Modeling in the Gulf of Mexico is presented in three
parts. In Part 1, background information on the life cycle
stages of offshore development and activity is reviewed, along with
a description of the service vessels and port infrastructure in the
region. In Part 2, OSV activity in the Gulf of Mexico is
baselined using PortVision data to establish spatial and temporal
characteristics of vessel activity. In Part 3, the analytic
framework used to quantify the connection between OSVs, ports, and
offshore activity is described, and activity expected to arise from
the 2012-2017 OCS lease program is forecast. Providing an
invaluable resource for academics and researchers, this book is
also intended for government regulators, energy and environmental
analysts, industry professionals, and others interested in this
often-overlooked sector.
