UKGEOS Cheshire - BHA-101 Initial Borehole Information Pack
This data pack contains information from geotechnical and contaminated land investigations carried out at potential sites for the development of the UK Geoenergy Observatory in Cheshire. Following these investigations, a decision was made to move the proposed observatory to Thornton Science Park. None of the sites discussed in this data pack are in scope for development as part of the Cheshire Observatory. In total 16 holes were drilled using a variety of techniques. The only hole to be drilled using rotary coring was BHA-101. This borehole was cored extensively and logged with wireline geophysical tools. As such this is the main focus of the data pack. BHA-101 was drilled to TD of 121.2 m between 19-Nov-2020 and 09-Dec-2020. Drill core was collected from 51 m – 121 mm with 100 mm diameter. This initial data release pack from BGS contains composite and digital wireline logs alongside daily driller's borehole records.

- Statement
- This initial dataset for the 121 m UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Cheshire BHA-101 Ground Investigation was derived from borehole drilling, rotary coring and geophysical wireline logging. Driller's log information was compiled by the drilling contractor SOCOTEC and checked against BGS records made on drill site. Wireline logging data was collected by European Geophysical Services and quality control checks with data processing were undertaken by BGS to create the .las file. More information is available in the README files which accompany the dataset. Sedimentary logging was undertaken after the completion of drilling by BGS.
