However, other sources report that production in the Gulf of Mexico began in 1946 by the Magnolia Petroleum (now ExxonMobil) platform 18 miles off the Louisiana coast.

5 5 Anomalies are in this book used for any deviation in condition (degradation, deformations, defects, damage and deterioration), configuration (change in layout, geometry and weight), design regime (new or updated requirements or practices) and design actions (changes to, e.g., metocean data leading to, e.g., insufficient strength and fatigue life) that may affect the integrity of the structure.
