The Barataria Field is a discovery located offshore in Mississippi Canyon Block 521, in the Gulf of Mexico. The field is a Miocene oil and gas discovery that was made by DGE III in 2015 and has a water depth of 2,063.8008 metres. The well will be completed and brought on line in the 4Q of 2016. Barataria will be jointly developed with South Santa Cruz which will be tied back to the Blind Faith FPS. Deep Gulf operates Barataria with a 22.5% working interest. The operator expects to bring the first well at South Santa Cruz and the well at Barataria on stream late in 2016 and the two wells are estimated to produce about 15,000 bbl/d.
