This vector dataset compiles the faults for the Upper Devonian in hot sedimentary aquifers in the Midland Valley of Scotland, UK used by Kearsey, T.I., Receveur, M. and Monaghan, A.A., 2024. Modelled hot sedimentary aquifer geothermal potential of Upper Devonian strata in the Midland Valley of Scotland.

This vector dataset compiles the vertical and non-vertical faults for the top and base of the Sherwood Sandstone Group in the Permo-Triassic Worcester, Wessex, East Yorkshire Lincolnshire and Cheshire basins.

This vector dataset represents the vertical and non-vertical faults for the Fell Sandstone Formation (base Middle Border Group) in the Northumberland-Solway Basin (Carboniferous hot sedimentary aquifer resources).

This vector contour dataset represents the temperature distribution in the Carboniferous Fell Sandstone Formation (Mid Border Group), at the mid reservoir depth, in the Northumberland-Solway Basin.

This dataset represents the thickness in metres of the Carboniferous Fell Sandstone Formation (Mid Border Group) in the Northumberland-Solway Basin.

EPSRC grant EP/L012227/1: Development of Unified Experimental and Theoretical Approach to Predict Reactive Transport in Subsurface Porous Media. The effect of pore-scale heterogeneity on non-Darcy flow behaviour is investigated by means of direct flow simulations on 3-D images of Bentheimer sandstone and Estaillades carbonate. The critical Reynolds number indicating the cessation of the creeping Darcy flow regime in Estaillades carbonate is two orders of magnitude smaller than in Bentheimer sandstone, and is three orders of magnitude smaller than in the beadpack.

This vector dataset compiles the vertical and non-vertical faults for the Permian hot sedimentary aquifers in the Cheshire (Collyhurst Sandstone Formation, CS) and the Worcester (Bridgnorth Sandstone Formation, BS) basins.

This dataset represents the modelled thickness in metres of the Sherwood Sandstone Group (SSG) in the main Permo-Triassic Cheshire, Wessex, Worcester and East Yorkshire-Lincolnshire basins, considered for their hot sedimentary aquifer geothermal resource potential. This dataset is derived from Rollin, K. E., G. A. Kirby, and W. J. Rowley. Atlas of geothermal resources in Europe: UK revision. British Geological Survey technical report WK/95/7, Regional Geophysics Group, 1995: https://webapps.bgs.ac.uk/data/publications/publication.html?id=21735106 and the European Geothermal Atlas (https://op.europa.eu/publication-detail/-/publication/9003d463-03ed-4b0e-87e8-61325a2d4456).

This vector contour dataset represents the calculated temperature distribution ( °C) at the base of the Permo-Triassic (PT) in the Cheshire and Worcester basins, considered for their hot sedimentary aquifer geothermal resource potential. The extent of the temperature maps corresponds to the extent of the modelled base PT in each basin. The maps and are based on temperature data from the latest revision of the UK Geothermal Catalogue (1987) compiled during the 1977-1991 Geothermal Energy Programme.  For all basins taken together, the temperature ranges between 8.0 °C to 104.6 °C, with the highest temperatures found at depth in the Cheshire Basin. The dataset is used as a basis for the determination of the heat resource potential of the Permo-Triassic hot sedimentary aquifer resources (heat-in-place and heat recoverable). This dataset is derived from Rollin, K. E., G. A. Kirby, and W. J. Rowley. Atlas of geothermal resources in Europe: UK revision.

This dataset represents the modelled thickness in metres of the Permian and lower Triassic sandstones in the Cheshire (Collyhurst Sandstone Formation, CS) and Worcester (Bridgnorth Sandstone Formation, BS) basins, considered for their hot sedimentary aquifer geothermal resource potential. Isopach maps for the other Permo-Triassic basins (Eastern England and Wessex) are not considered as a viable geothermal resource because of the limited porosity and transmissivity of the reservoirs, and were not modelled.
