All well numbers subject to BERR confirmation

IHS provides a database of all UK Released Offshore Wells. This contains approx 10,000 UK Exploration, Appraisal & Deviation Wells and is updated at each release. Key Data sets are Scanned Well Logs & Reports, Merged Wireline Logs, Well Attributes such as Deviations, Checkshots, Core Analyses, and Formation Pressure Data from RFT / MDT, Leak-Off test and mud weight data.
Onshore Well Data: IHS is also an official DTI release agent for onshore well data and provides a database of approx 1700 exploration, appraisal and development wells. Key data sets provide are as for offshore data.

Norway. IHS currently has pressure data for approximately 1000 wells in Norway divided between the Norwegian North Sea, Norwegian Sea (Mid Norway) and the Barents Sea. These wells contain re-interpreted, standardised and quality controlled formation pressures from RFT type tests, DSTs and kicks with additional fracture data and drilling mud weights. Also available is a Pressure Study of the Mid Norway region produced in collaboration with Geopressure Technology; available early 2007. Email midnorwaypressure@ihs.com for additional information.
