BOEM’s Resource Evaluation activities support all the bureau’s program areas, both energy and non-energy, through critical technical and economic analysis.
The program’s primary objectives are:
- To provide an assessment of both discovered and undiscovered oil and gas resources on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS).
- To assure receipt of Fair Market Value (FMV) on OCS lands as mandated by the OCS Lands Act.
- To assess carbon storage resources on the OCS.
