Before an operator can begin drilling a well on their lease they must file a drilling
permit and receive approval from the MMS.
Some organizations use this information as a sales tool and others use the number
of permits filed an indicator for future drilling business. Either way, GOMExplorer
provides you with an unprecedented view of drilling permits via the GOMExplorer
Map Viewer. Within GOMExplorer you will have
access to following fields of information for each permit:
- Operator
