在路易斯安那州和德克萨斯州附近的墨西哥湾爆炸拆除石油和天然气结构期间，观察员被派往近海地点监测和保护海龟。1992年对106个建筑物拆除进行了6500多个小时的监测，收集的数据提供了有关海龟分布的资料。共观察到18只海龟，其中包括10只石斑龟、2只棱皮龟、1只鹰嘴龟和5只身份不明的海龟。航测海龟的观测率(每监测一小时的海龟个数)约为白天或夜间海面调查的30倍。
Observers were placed at offshore sites to monitor and protect sea turtles during explosive removals of oil and gas structures in the Gulf of Mexico off Louisiana and Texas. Data collected during more than 6,500 hours of monitoring at 106 structure removals in 1992 provided information on sea turtle distribution. Eighteen individuals were observed including 10 loggerheads, 2 leatherbacks, 1 hawksbill, and 5 unidentified sea turtles. The observation rate (individuals per monitoring hour) of sea turtles was about 30 times higher during aerial surveys than during day or night suiface surveys.
