  • The Economic Impacts of the Gulf of Mexico Oil and Natural Gas Industry
    The Economic Impacts of the Gulf of Mexico Oil and Natural Gas Industry Prepared For Prepared By Executive Summary Introduction Despite the current difficulties facing the global economy as a whole and the oil and natural gas industry specifically, the Gulf of Mexico oil and natural gas industry will likely continue to be a major source of energy production, employment, gross domestic product, and government revenues for the United States. Several proposals have been advanced recently which would have a major impact on the industry’s activity levels, and the economic activity supported by the Gulf of Mexico offshore oil and natural gas industry. The proposals vary widely, but for the purpose of this report three scenarios were developed, a scenario based on a continuation of current policies and regulations, a scenario examining the potential impacts of a ban on new offshore leases, and a scenario examining the potential impacts of a ban on new drilling permits approvals in the Gulf of Mexico. Energy and Industrial Advisory Partners (EIAP) was commissioned by the National Ocean Industry Association (NOIA) to develop a report forecasting activity levels, spending, oil and natural gas production, supported employment, GDP, and Government Revenues in these scenarios. The scenarios developed in this report are based solely upon government and other publicly available data and EIAP’s own expertise and analysis. The study also included profiles of NOIA members to demonstrate the diverse group of companies which make up the offshore Gulf of Mexico oil and natural gas industry as well as a list of over 2,400 suppliers to the industry representing all 50 states.

Levine, MD, senior vice chancellor for the health sciences and John and Gertrude Petersen Dean of the School of Medicine. However, this year is not a typical year because Dr. Levine will step down from his leadership positions, once his successor arrives in June 2020 (see below). So, in lieu of his column, the annual report leads off with the story of Dr. Levine’s tenure, Iencapsulating quite a journey for him and for the University of Pittsburgh In addition, the report is packed with news emanating from the School of Medicine and the achievements of its students and faculty. All is worthy of reflection.

    Contact: Philip Cynar Pittsburgh Regional Alliance 412-281-4783, ext. 4573 [email protected] Pittsburgh Regional Alliance Partnership is Selected as One of the Nation’s Top 10 Economic Development Groups For a Third Consecutive Year, Recognition from Leading Commercial Real Estate Publication Validates the Pittsburgh Region’s Economic Development Momentum (PITTSBURGH – April 26, 2010) – The Pittsburgh Regional Alliance (PRA) Partnership has been named one of the nation’s Top 10 economic development groups by Site Selection magazine. This distinction is based on its performance in 2009 across a range of criteria including total capital investment in the region, total jobs created, the contributions of regional economic development partners toward the attainment of these numbers, overall economic vitality, scope of economic strength, diversity of industry and ability to generate breakthrough deals. An affiliate of the Allegheny Conference on Community Development, the PRA is the 10-county Pittsburgh region’s public-private economic development partnership that markets the benefits of conducting business in southwestern Pennsylvania to companies worldwide that are growing, relocating or expanding. Recently, the PRA Partnership announced its own annual inventory of regional economic development deals, or ―wins‖, and 2009 was a respectable year for the region, despite one of the deepest economic downturns in history. In line with Site Selection’s own criteria for a top economic development organization, the PRA’s inventory of regional economic development projects included $3 billion in capital investments and 197 corporate expansion, relocation and development projects. These projects are expected to create, over time, 7,238 new jobs for the Pittsburgh region and will retain 8,683 jobs—representing total employment impact of approximately 16,000 jobs.
