An active Region, the Gulf of Mexico is home to more than 2,400 production platforms and a weekly average of 37 drilling rigs. In the first six months of 2016, the Region’s drilling, workover, and production engineers who work out of the five District offices reviewed and approved approximately 400 permits.

Federal oil and gas resources provide an important source of energy for the United States; create jobs in the oil and gas industry; and generate billions of dollars annually in revenues that are shared between federal, state, and tribal governments. Interior reported collecting over $49 billion from fiscal years 2011 through 2015 from royalties and other payments. This makes oil and gas resources one of the federal government's largest sources of nontax revenue.
