energy everywhere: anchor’s journey continues

Jacob Gros usually starts his workday with two things: a cup of coffee and a moment of reflection while watching the sunrise.

That isn't so uncommon, but his morning ritual is unique. He enjoys it nearly 140 miles off the Louisiana coast, aboard the Anchor Platform. And Gros experienced another dawn when Anchor began producing in August.

It was the result of years of effort, marking an opening chapter for an oil and gas facility that's expected to produce for approximately 30 years.

"It's a full circle moment," said Gros, a Chevron offshore installation manager. "It's pretty amazing."
