THE GULF REGION AND U.S. OIL COMPANIES WILL ALSO NEED OUR PRAYERS
In 2005, Katrina defied predictions the storm would only hit Florida. Learning from this previous disaster, the U.S. Gulf oil companies are making preparations this time for Hurricane Dean.
It would seem in these days of advanced weather technology, computer models cannot always be trusted.
This next week we will also need to say a prayer of protection for the Gulf region. LH

U.S. Gulf oil companies prepare for deadly hurricane
Sun Aug 19, 2007 6:31AM IST
HOUSTON (Reuters) - U.S. Gulf of Mexico oil and natural gas producers were evacuating offshore workers and shutting small amounts of production on Saturday as they watched powerful Hurricane Dean storm across the Caribbean Sea toward an entry into the Gulf next week.
Forecasts and computer models point Dean away from the paths taken by 2005's devastating hurricanes Katrina and Rita through offshore oil production areas and onshore refining centers.
Taking a lesson from Katrina, which defied forecasts showing it would confine its damage to Florida, companies with operations from the central to western Gulf continued pulling support workers who were not essential to keeping offshore production running.
