Description
In the 2015/16 UK Budget, OGA was assigned funds to acquire seismic and other geoscience data in under-explored areas of the UK Continental Shelf in order to improve regional evaluations and stimulate future exploration activity by improving the fundamental geological understanding of these areas. Two areas were selected for surveying, in collaboration with industry, and the geophysical acquisition work was completed and data processed. The surveys cover the Rockall Trough and the Mid North Sea High (MNSH) areas with a total of up to 40,000 km of new and legacy seismic data (including a substantial set of Broadband 2D seismic data), supplemented by gravity and magnetic data. Final Processed and Raw data will be made available at the end of March 2016, including full-offset stacks, angle stacks, gathers, velocity data, navigation data, gravity data, magnetic data and well log data. A small charge will be made for data provided on physical media (i.e. field tapes). These data packages will be freely available for interpretation from 31st March 2016. More information on the surveys (including spatial data) is available from the OGA website: www.gov.uk/oga.
