路易斯安那州和德克萨斯州的钻井平台到珊瑚礁项目得到了公众、行业和政府的广泛支持，并已成为世界各地类似项目的典范。路易斯安那州的rig -to- reefs项目是世界上最大的，自1986年启动以来，已有363个石油和天然气平台被捐赠，平均每年捐赠12个。德克萨斯州的钻井平台到珊瑚礁项目始于1990年，从那时起，大约有154个建筑被捐赠，或者每年大约6个建筑被捐赠。提供了路易斯安那州和德克萨斯州珊瑚礁计划的摘要更新，以及最近立法活动的变化。审查捐赠趋势和统计数据。rig -to- reefs项目的捐赠活动不太可能超过历史水平，这两个项目都应该开始规划未来，因为未来项目产生的收入会减少。
Abstract The Louisiana and Texas Rigs-to-Reefs programs enjoy widespread public, industry, and government support and have become models for similar programs around the world. Louisiana’s Rigs-to-Reefs program is the largest in the world, and since its inception in 1986 about 363 oil and gas platforms have been donated, or on average about 12 structures per year. Texas’s Rigs-to-Reefs program started in 1990, and since this time about 154 structures have been donated, or about six structures per year. A summary update of the Louisiana and Texas reef programs is provided, along with recent changes in legislative activity. Donation trends and statistics are reviewed. The Rigs-to-Reefs programs are unlikely to see donation activity above historic levels, and both programs should start planning for a future where the income generated from future projects diminishes.
