Historic seismic data which provide images below the seabed are to be made available by the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) following a consultation into the reporting and disclosure of such data.
Explorers, organisations researching potential carbon capture and storage (CCS) sites, and academics will be among those who will benefit from the greater availability of the data, spanning a time period from the 1960s to around 10 years ago.
