NSTA and Lloyd's Register English Channel Regional Geological Maps (Open Source version)

<div><p><span>As part of the NSTA’s published 2018/19 Activity Plan, the NSTA is publishing a set of regional geological maps for the Engish Channel area of the UKCS. These maps represent the fifth set of deliverables from a 3 year contract with Lloyd’s Register (LR) to produce a series of maps and associated databases for the whole of the UKCS.</span></p><p><span>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 seismic interpretation work carried out by Heriot-Watt University (Rachel Brackenridge), the 21CXRM Palaeozoic project (which is now available in the public domain), CGG’s Target database and relevant products available via the BGS’s Offshore Geoindex. CDA is also kindly acknowledged for their support in downloading and providing much of the released well data to LR as part of this project.</span></p><p><span>Due to the high level, regional nature of the project, the maps are being produced for the main geological time intervals e.g. Paleocene, Lower Cretaceous, Upper Jurassic. Each time interval includes the following products:</span></p><p><span>• Depth structure maps</span></p><p><span>• Isochore maps</span></p><p><span>• Subcrop &amp; supercrop maps</span></p><p><span>• Structural elements maps</span></p><p><span>• Depositional facies maps</span></p><p><span>• Reservoir distribution maps</span></p><p><span>• Source rock maps</span></p><p><span>• Well penetration maps</span></p><p style='MARGIN: 0px'><span style='FONT-SIZE: 12pt'>• Hydrocarbon occurrence maps</span></p></div>作为已发布的2018/19年度工作计划的组成部分，英国国家油气管理局（NSTA）正针对英国大陆架（UKCS）的英吉利海峡区域发布一套区域地质图件。该套图件是与劳埃德船级社（LR）签订的三年期合同的第五批交付成果，该合同旨在为整个英国大陆架编制一系列地质图件及配套数据库。 本次随本套地质图件一同发布的所有数据均属于公有领域数据。不过本项目还依托了多个第三方数据源，用于辅助完善最终图件及/或推导解译成果。具体包括赫瑞-瓦特大学（Heriot-Watt University，Rachel Brackenridge团队）开展的地震解译工作、现已公开的21CXRM古生代项目数据集、CGG的Target数据库，以及可通过英国地质调查局（BGS）近海地理索引获取的相关产品。本项目同时对CDA为支持本项目，协助劳埃德船级社（LR）下载并提供本次发布的大部分井资料深表感谢。 鉴于本项目为宏观区域级研究项目，本次图件将针对主要地质时代区间编制，涵盖古新统、下白垩统、上侏罗统等。每个地质时代区间均包含以下成果： • 深度构造图 • 等厚图 • 剥露与超覆图 • 构造要素图 • 沉积相图 • 储层分布图 • 烃源岩分布图 • 钻井穿透图 • 油气产出分布图
