This is a report on the environmental impacts and potential advantages of using biomass instead of fossil fuels in energy production.

This report details the petroleum lease sales and development in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico (GOM) Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) through estimated physical and economic measures. Physical performance is measured in ways such as the prospectivity index, expeditious index, and development productivity. Economic performance is measured in ways such as a profitability index and internal rate of return.

Offshore structures are required to be removed within a year after production ceases and recently the Minerals Management Service has asked for removal of structures no longer "economically viable." This paper seeks to identify the amount of idle iron that exists in the Gulf of Mexico as well as describe the geographic distribution and ownership patterns.

Limbo Lands are considered as underused, formerly contaminated sites, and include former Superfund sites, landfills, brownfield, abandoned min lands, former industrial sites, and certain government installations.

A report that describes the financial effects of low and high energy consumption. It describes how some energy efficiency programs can be or have been implemented. It also slightly investigates how using energy effects the environment.

This report is based on the needs of the National Marine Fisheries Service and Minerals Management Service to gain data about the Sperm Whale population, comparing the population in the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Twelve whales were tagged and observed to gather various types of data about their population and environment.

This report presents information about improving energy efficiency in homes, businesses, schools, governments, and industries. It also discusses challenges of energy prices.

This guide is designed to assist gas and electric utilities in calculating energy, demand, and emission savings.

The tuft coral Lophelia pertusa is a deep-water coral that is very slow to develop and fragile, which makes recovery from any type of damage a very slow process. Current fishing practices and oil drilling are destructive processes that effect these coral systems. The goal of this paper is to learn more about the Lophelia pertusa and determine how best to protect these deep-water systems.
