CGG Core Analysis Database: Porosity and Permeability Data for UKCS Wells

Over 2000 wells in the UK Continental Shelf are represented in this core analysis database. The data includes measurements such as porosity, permeability, and lithology, compiled by the North Sea Transition Authority. The dataset was last updated on 2026-06-18.

Use Cases

• Model reservoir quality based on porosity and permeability measurements.
• Analyze lithological distributions across the UK Continental Shelf.
• Calibrate well log interpretations using direct core analysis data.
• Assess geological formations for potential carbon capture and storage sites.

Strengths

• Data covers cores from over 2000 wells, providing a substantial sample size.
• Includes key petrophysical properties like porosity and permeability explicitly mentioned.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update is scheduled for a future date (2026-06-18).
