that's the best summary I have seen all day -- streamers are showing rig reports from individual companies all day, but haven't seen a global report myself - maybe someone else has seen a compiled report.
edit - example of one company's report:
Williams Provides Update on Gulf Coast Operations, Interests PR Newswire - August 30, 2005 18:05 * Personnel Performing Visual Inspections * Transco and Gulfstream Natural Gas Pipelines Remain Operational
TULSA, Okla., Aug 30, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Williams (NYSE: WMB) today provided an update on its operations in areas affected by Hurricane Katrina.
The company has begun initial visual inspections at certain facilities. So far, Williams has not received reports of significant damage at company locations.
Reports for some facilities, such as underwater pipelines, are not expected until additional offshore crews and equipment can be mobilized.
Natural Gas Transportation
The Transco and Gulfstream natural gas pipeline systems remain operational. An initial assessment of the onshore facilities such as compressor stations has not revealed any significant damage.
Volumes on both the wholly owned Transco system and the 50 percent-owned Gulfstream system have been reduced because of producers' storm-related supply shut-ins.
Onshore Natural Gas Processing
Personnel have re-entered the Mobile Bay, Ala., natural gas processing plant. The facility is experiencing a power outage. No significant damage was reported.
Personnel are initiating start-up operations at the Geismar, La., olefins production plant that has been shut-in since Sunday. Geismar is located south of Baton Rouge. The facility is expected to be available for service on Wednesday, pending resumed feedstock delivery to the plant. The Geismar plant cracks ethane and propane to produce ethylene, propylene and other co-products that are used to manufacture plastics.
In Texas, operations have re-started at the Markham, Texas, natural gas processing plant. This facility was not directly impacted by the storm and is processing natural gas.
Offshore Operations
The Nansen and Boomvang offshore gathering pipelines have returned to service. Nansen and Boomvang gather and transport oil and gas from deepwater wells in the western Gulf of Mexico.
The company's GA-244 platform is manned and operational after being evacuated over the weekend. GA-244 supports the Nansen and Boomvang operations.
Preliminary reports for the Canyon Station fixed-leg platform in East Main Pass Block 261 and the Devils Tower deepwater spar at Mississippi Canyon block 773 have not indicated significant damage. These facilities will be inspected further this week
Next Steps
The process of conducting inspections and collecting data from each company location remains dynamic. Williams is committed to providing accurate reports as new information becomes available.
