Description:
Abstract:
This data set contains the Lease Term lines in ESRI shapefile format for
the BOEM Gulf of Mexico Region. The lease term lines lie in the Outer
Continental Shelf (OCS) in the Gulf of Mexico and represent current 5, 7, and
10 year lease term areas for the Gulf of Mexico. The BOEM uses lease terms
based on water depths that incentivize industry to diligently and promptly
operate their leases. For leases issued in 2010 and later, the BOEM changed the
lease terms in the deepwater GOM to account for
improvements in deep water technology and the decreased time necessary for
exploration and infrastructure development. Additional details are
available from OCS Report MMS 99-0006 - Boundary Development on the Outer
Continental Shelf: http://www.boem.gov/uploadedFiles/BOEM/Oil_and_Gas_Energy_Program/Mapping_and_Data/99-0006.pdf
Because GIS projection and topology functions can change or generalize
coordinates, these GIS files are considered to be approximate and are NOT
an OFFICIAL record for the exact baseline
coordinates. The Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs) and Supplemental Official
Block Diagrams (SOBDs) serve as the legal definition for BOEM offshore boundary
coordinates and area descriptions.
Purpose:
The BOEM uses lease terms based on water depths that incentivize industry
to diligently and promptly operate their leases. OCS leases have fixed lease
terms, as long as exploration and development is privately profitable, lessees
will explore and develop within that initial period. BOEM and BSEE
enforcement of laws, regulations, and lease terms assure conservation of
resources through diligent development of leases. For leases issued in
2010 and later, the BOEM changed the lease terms in the deepwater
GOM to account for improvements in deep water technology and the decreased time
necessary for exploration and infrastructure development. Using shorter lease
terms for shallower waters helps to encourage timely development by providing a
built-in incentive for development. Current GOM lease terms are:
For water depths 0m to <400m, the Initial Period is 5 years extended to
8 years if a well is spudded during the initial 5-year period targeting
hydrocarbons below 25,000 feet TVD SS (Total Vertical Depth Subsea). For
Water Depths 400m to <800m, the initial period is 5 years extended to 8
years if a well is spudded during the initial 5-year period. For water
depths 800m to <1,600m, the initial term is 7 years extended to 10 years if
a well is spudded during the initial 7- year period. For water
depths 1,600m+, the initial term is 10 years.
Supplemental_Information:
The BOEM is making its
existing cadastre data available at http://www.boem.gov/Oil-and-Gas-Energy-Program/Mapping-and-Data/Index.aspx.
These data include Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs),
and Supplemental Official OCS Block Diagrams (SOBDs) in pdf format, and digital
spatial data in ArcGIS shapefile format. Additional information on lease
terms may be found at: http://www.boem.gov/BOEM-Newsroom/Press-Releases/2010/press0211.aspx
