1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Fugro-McCleliand Marine Geosciences, Inc. (FMMG) performed geotechnical investigations for proposed offshore structures across the Texas Offshore Port System (TOPS), located in Block A-56, of the Galveston Area in the Gulf of Mexico. The primary purpose of the investigation was to obtain soil data to develop foundation design recommendations for the single Point mooring (SPM) facility, designated as SPM #1 and SPM #2, of the proposed TOPS facility in Block A-56: The field investigation was performed on June 30, July 2 and 3, 2008, from the RN Seaprobe. The soil conditions were determined by performing a total of four exploratory borings, with one boring at a selected anchor leg location and one boring at the proposed Pipe Line End Termination (PLET) location at each of the SPM locations. These borings were drilled to a penetration of 131-ft below mudline. The water depths ranged from 117 to 121 ft at the soil boring locations across Block A-56. An exploratory boring was also drilled at the Offshore Terminal location in Block A-56 and is presented in FMMG's Report No.
