Most U.S. Gulf oil output shut as Gustav threatens
HOUSTON (Reuters) - Energy companies shut down three-quarters of U.S. Gulf of Mexico oil production on Saturday to prepare for the worst hurricane to hit the U.S. oil patch since 2005, and coastal refineries braced for possible floods.
Hurricane Gustav, now a dangerous Category 4 storm, roared toward western Cuba on Saturday with 145-mph (233-kph) winds on its way to the oil-rich Gulf of Mexico after a deadly pass through the Caribbean.
According to the U.S. Minerals Management Service, 76.8 percent of the Gulf’s crude oil production and 37 percent of its natural gas output was closed.
