Offshore Leasing Plan Sees Slower Atlantic Pacific Drilling
The Interior Department proposes a five year plan slowing most offshore oil and gas tract leasing while adding Pacific Northwest acreage for the first time in 27 years. Aims for one sale every three years outside the Gulf, with central and western gulf sales annually. The draft lists 43 auctions, five of which are re offerings of rejected tracts, maintaining the area wide access policy.
