Platform Hidalgo is located in 123 m of water off Point Arguello, California. A pilot study was conducted to examine the distribution and abundance of rockfishes around Hidalgo and at eight adjacent natural reefs.

Red snapper mature as early as age 2, have high fecundity (a 10-year-old female produces 60 million eggs per year), and may live for over 50 years. Eggs, larvae, and post-settlement juveniles typically show high rates of natural mortality.
This article presents results from the first detailed study on the feeding habits of fish assemblages associated with offshore oil and gas platforms in the North Sea.
