2005年飓风季节对整个墨西哥湾沿海社区造成了前所未有的破坏。考虑到卡特里娜飓风和丽塔飓风对石油化工和炼油公司的陆上作业的影响，它们特别感兴趣。这两场飓风带来的洪水和强风破坏了多种类型的资产，包括水箱、冷却塔、发电机建筑、工艺塔、泵、控制器、电线杆和变压器。它们还造成了长时间的停电、供应中断和广泛的员工失业，所有这些都是财产和业务中断损失的主要原因。
The 2005 hurricane season caused unprecedented levels of damage to coastal communities throughout the Gulf of Mexico. Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita were of particular interest to petrochemical and refining companies, given the impacts they had to their onshore operations. Floodwaters and extreme winds from these two hurricanes damaged numerous types of assets, including tanks, cooling towers, generator buildings, process towers, pumps, controllers, utility poles, and transformers. They also caused prolonged power outages, supply disruptions, and widespread employee dislocations, all major contributors to both property and business interruption losses.
