Storm Gordon halts some energy production in U.S. Gulf Reuters HOUSTON (Reuters) - Three more oil producers pulled employees out of Tropical Storm Gordon's path, and companies cut 9 percent of U.S. Gulf of Mexico oil and gas production on Tuesday as the storm churned towards an expected nighttime landfall. The storm, which is expected to strengthen into a Category 1 hurricane with winds of at least 74 miles per hour (119 kph), shifted eastward, reducing its threat to producers on the western side of the Gulf and most Gulf Coast refineries.
