Where are the Oil Rigs?

Hi folks. I just recently got back into flying choppers and after a few days cruising around Fly Tampas St. Marteen scenery, I thought I would try some flights to the oil rigs, but can't for the life of me remember where they are located in FS9. I thought there was one near San Diego but I couldn't find it last night. I do have scenery complexity turn all the way up. Is there anything posted anywhere that gives all the locations. I did a search here and didn't see anything posted on it. Thanks in advance.Regards,Sean
