Tiber Oil Field is a deepwater offshore oil canyon.
 With Tiber joining at least ten other successful Lower Tertiary explorations in the area, analysts viewed the announcement as a sign for optimism, and a harbinger of renewed interest in, and production from, the offshore Gulf of Mexico
  Sources such as Bloomberg suggest caution, warning that the find is technically complex and potentially could take 56 years to produce oil or be lower yield (515%) based on "rates talked about" at nearby Kaskida Oil Field, BP's previous giant find (2006) 40 mi (64 km) away
