UKGEOS Glasgow GGA02 borehole information pack

The borehole information pack from borehole GGA02, site 01 of the UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Glasgow facility. This release from the British Geological Survey (BGS) contains BGS and Drillers’ logs, cased hole wireline data, details on fibre-optic cable installation, a listing of archived rock chips and a descriptive report. The borehole was drilled between 17th June and 20th September 2019 (start of drilling to casing installation date) to 94.16 m drilled depth as a mine water characterisation and monitoring borehole. Unfortunately, during the final stages of construction grout entered inside the casing, the casing was damaged and the borehole is now available as a sensor testing borehole to 67.2 m. The cased borehole was wireline logged in January 2020. Rock chip samples were taken during the drilling process and have been archived at the National Geological Repository at BGS Keyworth. Further details can be found in the accompanying report http://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/528076 DOI https://dx.doi.org/10.5285/189dac62-b720-4fde-8260-f129fb9b0233

Statement
This dataset for the 94.16 m drilled depth UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Glasgow sensor testing borehole GGA02 was derived from borehole drilling and rock chip returns, and geophysical wireline logging of the borehole. Drillers’ log information was compiled by the drilling contractor BAM Nuttall/BAM Ritchies/Drilcorp and checked against BGS records made on drill site. BGS collected rock chip samples every metre and created rock chip and interpretive summary logs. Wireline logging data was collected by Robertson Geo Services Ltd and quality control checks were undertaken by BGS. Fibre-optic cable installation was completed by Silixa Ltd and electrical resistivity tomography cable installation was completed by BGS. More information is available in the accompanying report http://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/528076
