Shell’s Blacktip Shock: The Deepwater Jackpot!
In the heart of the Gulf of Mexico, Shell, Chevron, Equinor, and Repsol are shaking up the oil scene with the Blacktip deepwater site. Shell, as the operator, just hit a massive oil-rich pocket!
Andy Brown Weighs In
- “Blacktip is Shell’s second big find in the Perdido Corridor.”
- “It’s all about adding fresh deepwater options and extending our heartland.”
- “We hit more than 400 feet of sweet oil pay – that’s 122 meters of pure gold.”
Next Steps are on the Way
Evaluation is still in progress, and appraisal plans are rolling out to map the discovery and pave the way for future development.
