; ; ; ;
Intense interest in the oil and gas potential in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly deepwater tracts, has brought a resurgence in Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) exploration, development, and production activity. Both of the 1997 lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico Central and Western Planning Areas were recordbreakers receiving the largest number of bids received, tracts bid on, and tracts leased.
