Description

Eduardo Cuevas and a large team map clashes between oil work and fishing in the southern Gulf of Mexico for a 2026 risk study. Fleets share water with platforms, pipelines, heavy ship traffic, and spills, in a lopsided and poorly documented pairing. Multi-source maps fed individual and combined vulnerability and risk scores for industrial and small-scale fleets.

Two danger zones stood out. Small boats off eastern Tabasco and western Campeche face steady exposure to big vessels and oil structures, while industrial fleets north of Ciudad del Carmen meet surface oil more often. The maps can guide sea planning near a new protected area.
