DECC aims to make as much information and data publicly available as soon as possible. Under the current regulations, data will normally be available for release once a period of confidentiality has passed. All data release contracts are non-exclusive. All the data collected under the PON9b requirements will be considered for release: PON 9b - Record and sample requirements for landward surveys and wells
We are always ready to discuss any proposal to extend our current range of products.
Please contact Phil Harrison Geoscience Data Manager (+44) (0) 300 068 6036

Release Dates
For the purpose of data release, the start of the confidentiality period is deemed to be the well completion date for well data and the end of the calendar year when data acquisition was completed for seismic data. The relevant confidentiality periods are:
For data acquired under offshore licences awarded up to and including the 19th round is 4 years.
For data acquired under offshore licences awarded in the 20th and subsequent rounds is 3 years (or full licence relinquishment).
For data acquired under onshore licences awarded up to and including the 11th round is 5 years.
For data acquired under onshore licences awarded in the 12th and subsequent rounds is 4 years.
For spec seismic data acquired under offshore Exploration licences guidelines are currently in place (subject to annual review) for a 10 year confidentiality period.
