Chevron Corp. is drilling a second exploratory test on the company’s Yarrow prospect in the Gulf of Mexico. The #2 OCS G35971 is in the western half of Mississippi Canyon Block 434. Water depth in the area is 6,900 ft. The venture offsets the Houston-based company’s #1 OCS G35971, which was plugged and abandoned in 2019 after just two weeks of drilling.
