Never before 2020 had companies engaged in offshore Gulf of Mexico exploration and production seriously considered being unable or unwilling to flow crude barrels due to disappearing transportation capacity or crashing prices. The COVID lockdown crippled global demand while near term supplies remained uninterrupted and the threat of additional barrels being introduced into the Gulf loomed over the horizon.
