UKCS data initiatives released related to 32nd round

This dataset is a curated inventory of geoscience and exploration‑relevant products released as part of the 32nd Licence Round and Data Release. It brings together technical contributions from several major providers—including Getech, Badley Geoscience, BGS, CGG, Geotrack, Ikon, and LR—each delivering domain‑specific datasets and interpretative studies. The catalogue includes a wide range of subsurface and basin‑evaluation resources. These span regional structural and tectonic interpretations, OcTek structural and stratigraphic studies, exploration opportunity assessments, and the UKCS Seeps Database, which compiles geochemical seep information across the UK Continental Shelf. Additional entries cover fission track regional reports, rock physics and seismic amplitude studies, and Petroleum Systems Project material, offering basin‑scale evaluation inputs. The dataset also incorporates comprehensive digital well log compilations from CGG, providing enhanced well‑based subsurface data for screening and interpretation. Overall, this collection acts as a discovery and reference index supporting structural frameworks, play fairway understanding, petroleum systems analysis, and exploration opportunity identification across the UKCS.
