Administrators at Shell Oil began evacuating employees from operations in the Gulf of Mexico.
The almost 300 people that evacuated Tuesday were classified as not essential toward production and drilling operations.
Company administrators are concerned with the potential development of a tropical disturbance in the region.
Approximately 400 more Shell employees are expected to be evacuated from gulf coast platforms Wednesday.
According to Shell, production is currently not affected by the evacuations.
