Re FPSO approval in GOM...

Under Minerals Management Service (MMS), part of Interior. It seems to be stuck in a bureaucratic morass, a multi-year study. Very hard to find any information about timing of decision. Lack of FPSO's in the GOM brings up a question that I haven't been able to answer, here or elsewhere.....if not FPSO's in the Gulf, then what? A number of deepwater projects completed...what will be needed to produce them? Lots of idle production platforms but will they and can they be used in deepwater? Will deepwater GOM require a lot of platforms or is it mostly subsea work to link together and share facilities? Lots of ramifications for the fabs and subsea construction companies.
