UKCS Hydrocarbon Field Production Reports with PPRS Points

UKCS hydrocarbon field production reports PPRS points (WGS84) contains recent and historic production data for various oil and gas unit types in the UK. The data is managed by the North Sea Transition Authority under the Petroleum Production Reporting System (PPRS), which was enhanced on 9 June 2017. Reporting covers offshore and onshore fields and terminals.

Use Cases

• Analyze production trends for different field types (e.g., Oil Tanker to Loader, Dry Gas Fields) based on the unit types mentioned in the description
• Model the spatial distribution of hydrocarbon production based on the geospatial WGS84 coordinate system indicated in the title
• Track changes in reporting standards and data quality following the PPRS system enhancement in June 2017
• Benchmark production performance across onshore and offshore UK hydrocarbon fields and terminals

Strengths

• Covers both recent and historic production data, providing a temporal perspective
• Includes data for multiple unit types: Oil Tanker to Loader, Dry Gas Fields, Oil Field Exporting to Pipeline, and Onshore Oil Field
• Managed under a formal reporting system (PPRS) with documented submission guidance and a known enhancement date of 9 June 2017

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download from separate linked files
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale analysis
• Freshness should be verified; last metadata update was 2026-06-18 11:11:25.357333
