August to October 2009 survey for a semi-sub rig operated by Dana Petroleum in UK blocks 23/16b, 23/16c, and 23/11a. The British Geological Survey collected this data under licences P1051, P359, and P749.
Use Cases
- Analyze survey data from blocks 23/16b, 23/16c, and 23/11a for geological hazard assessment prior to rig placement.
- Map the survey path traversed by the semi-sub rig during the August-October 2009 operational window.
- Cross-reference this site survey with other datasets using the DECC Reference Number 2028 as a unique identifier.
Strengths
- Data originates from the authoritative British Geological Survey (BGS).
- Provides precise temporal coverage from August to October 2009.
- Specifies exact geographic blocks (23/16b, 23/16c, 23/11a) surveyed in the UK North Sea.
Limitations
- Core data structure is unknown; columns, rows, and file formats are unspecified.
- The dataset is over 15 years old, limiting its relevance for current subsurface conditions.
- Lack of sample data prevents assessment of content depth or variable types.
