GLO Deep Well Locations and Depths of Formations V01

Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from the Gloucester Deep Wells Completion Reports - Geology dataset (GUID: 0529ae9a-4d40-460d-b52a-fb0e5f646746). The source dataset is identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

The data set consists of two files which correspond to the wells location and data (formation markers) used to identify the depth of formations used in the geologic model.

Files:

Well_picks.txt

Contains the well name, datum and the calculated depths of formations form the datum identified from the well completion reports.

Wells_locations.kmz

Contains the locations for use in GoogleEarth. Geographic coordinates are available in the original well completion reports.

Dataset History

Data were extracted from 25 well completion reports obtained for the Gloucester basin from the DIGS database. Each report lists the depth of the various formations encountered during well drilling and the elevation at the surface. Using these values the formation tops and bottoms were calculated and formatted accordingly for input into the geological model. The file well_picks.txt represents the input data.
