A December 2001 site survey for an oil and gas pipeline/cable route between Viscount and Vampire platforms in the UK Continental Shelf. The survey traversed blocks 49/16, 49/17, 49/21, and 49/22 and was conducted by the British Geological Survey.
Use Cases
- Analyze pipeline route survey data from block numbers 49/16, 49/17, 49/21, and 49/22 for seabed geohazard assessment.
- Map the December 2001 survey corridor between the Viscount and Vampire platforms for infrastructure planning.
- Integrate this 2001 survey with other UKCS datasets using the BGS reference number CS01SS0009 for historical analysis.
Strengths
- Survey conducted by the authoritative British Geological Survey (BGS).
- Specific temporal coverage from December 2001.
- Defined spatial coverage across four UKCS blocks (49/16, 49/17, 49/21, 49/22).
Limitations
- Dataset is over 20 years old and may not reflect current seabed conditions.
- No column or sample data is available to assess the specific features and measurements recorded.
- Unknown data volume, format, and structure limit immediate analytical utility.
