Oil Rig vs Gas Rig ? Hiya Big, I have been under the impression that the difference is not in the rigs themselves but rather in the intentions of the people doing the drilling. That is, that they are drilling for oil or gas at a particular location because the seismic data and/or previous experience lead them to believe that's what they'll find at a given location. BWDIK? regards, diana

<<<Off Topic>>> Intentions of drillers Big, et al, My last post reminded me of this story which you might find amusing. A married couple is spending the summer by a lake. The man is a keen fisherman and has a well-equiped small fishing boat. He goes out early every morning to fish. One late morning he returns as usual to their lakeside cabin and lays down for a nap. --The wife decides this morning that it might be pleasant to take the boat out herself and enjoy a few quiet hours on the lake. She motors across the lake to a quiet cove, drops anchor, and relaxes on deck with a cool drink and a novel. --After she's been there reading for an hour or so, the boat of the local fisheries warden pulls into the cove. --He says "Well maam, this cove is a 'No Fishing' Area, and I'm going to have to give you a ticket." --"But," she replied, "I'm Not fishing, as you can plainly see. I'm just sitting here reading a book," --"Yes maam, but your boat is just full of fishing gear. I'm going to ticket you because you've got that equipment." --"Well, she says, "If you do, I'm going to charge you with Rape." --"What!" He is shocked. "I never touched you!!" --"Perhaps not," she answered, "But you've got the equipment." --d

Big Maybe this distinction of the oil/gas split in the Gulf coincides with the recent re-design of the BHI web site. They made this spreadsheet available that shows weekly totals for oil/gas in the Gulf back to the beginning of 1994. I think ol' Cheryl is downloading it because it is not part of the recorded phone message or the summary on the web site. You might want to take a look. bakerhughes.com Select "U.S. Rotary Rig Count Excel Spreadsheet" Data is under the worksheet labeled "Oil & Gas" John
