Heard that:

Hurricane Katrina is heading through the area that produces 1/3 of the
U.S Oil
and Gas..
Most of the Rigs are old and decrepid.. Heard that many will collapse /
Go down in the Storm..

- So , because of the shortfall in production and such

Gas Prices will Soar.. Probably true for heating oil as well...

There have been far worse hurricanes in recent years that covered the same
area. Though there is always the potential for an off-shore platform to
suffer some kind of structural failure for a variety of reasons, there's
nothing to indicate this particular storm spells "doom" for any of them.

Storm winds already at 160 MPH (knots?), making it a category 5, and it is
expected to gain strength before it hits landfall. Some estimates are for
195 MPH winds.. worst storm to hit the Gulf coast since Camille (we left
Corpus Christi just before Camille leveled our whole neighborhood, which was
just two blocks from the beach)
