AVAILABLE CORE
Use the dashboard below to browse our vast selection of core! Look up information on samples you already own or dive into data that piques your interest.
Scroll down for instructions on how to use the dashboard.
This dashboard is made in collaboration with GeoXtract at the University of Aberdeen. GeoXtract have streamlined access to publicly available subsurface data. Their Power BI dashboards help users filter and analyse data based on their specific interests, without needing to access multiple sources.
DASHBOARD INSTRUCTIONS
The dashboard is best viewed on a computer or tablet. For full screen view and functionality, open the dashboard in a new window by clicking on the icon at the bottom right-hand side of the dashboard. Tables can be viewed in full by using 'focus mode', click the icon at the top right of the table.
On the home page, you can search our core inventory and find details like location, sample type, formation and/or depositional environment. Page 2 displays the porosity and permeability data for the selected core. Note that this data is not available for all samples. On page 3, publicly available data associated with the core can be downloaded. Any core photos not available on the dashboard, can be found in the BGS database.
After selecting a quad or field, use the down arrow to see the wells available within that quad/field and select the appropriate one(s). Note that the search boxes are linked. You need to reset them all when starting a new search otherwise not all available data is shown. Reset a search box by clicking the rubber icon at the top right corner.

CORE DONORS
All the core we receive is from company samples and has been cleared for donation under the Petroleum Operations Notice (PON) 9 guidance set out by the North Sea Transition Authority (NSTA). We also collaborate with the British Geological Survey (BGS) to identify key sections for the BGS Core Store and National Archive, with this taking priority over the selection of material for redistribution through North Sea Core.
We are grateful to the following companies for supporting North Sea Core by donating material:
