Nilaoba12345/BOEM: Global Database for Naturally Occurring Radionuclides associated with offshore Oil and Gas Production@en

This study compiles a comprehensive dataset on the occurrence, distribution, and potential impacts of Technologically Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radionuclides (TENORMs) near offshore oil and gas platforms. It encompasses data derived from various environmental matrices, including activities (Bq/l) and exposure levels (Msv), with particular emphasis on petroleum products and waste, such as produced water, scales, and sludges. The dataset aims to contribute to a better understanding of the distribution of TENORMs in marine environments, as well as inform future radiological safety norms, contribute to the formulation of regulatory policies, and facilitate the design of mitigation strategies. The information, covering literature and datasets spanning five continents over the past 70 years, has been organized to enable intuitive inquiries, making it a useful resource for policymakers and academics.
