All data released with this
set of geological maps is public domain data. The project has, however,
benefited from a number of additional third-party data sources which have been
used to help inform final maps and/or derive interpreted products. These
include the 21CXRM Palaeozoic project (which is now available in the public
domain),the Southern Permian Basin Atlas (SPBA),PGS’s North Sea Digital Atlas
and East Shetland Platform seismic interpretation project, Frogtech’s East
Shetland Platform Project, IGI’s Source Rock Evaluation for the East Shetland
Platform, research data from the University of Aberdeen, seismic interpretation
work and other geological studies carried out by Durham University on the SW
Approaches, seismic interpretation work carried out by Heriot-Watt University
on the Mid North Sea High, seismic interpretation work carried out by Aberdeen
University on the Rockall area CGG’s Target database and relevant products
available via the BGS’s Offshore Geoindex. TGS are gratefully acknowledged for
providing joined digital log data from LogLinePlus to enable the production of
sand flag curves. Schlumberger, TGS and BP are acknowledged for providing
additional seismic data to help QC interpretation carried out within the
project and CDA are also kindly acknowledged for their support in downloading
and providing much of the released well data to LR as part of this project. Due
to the high level, regional nature of the project, the depth structure and
structural elements maps have been produced for the main geological time
intervals, e.g. Paleocene, Lower Cretaceous, Upper Jurassic. Depositional
facies maps and reservoir distribution maps were produced for a higher number
of stratigraphic intervals such as the Danian, Selandian and Thanetian
(Paleocene).
