The borehole information pack from borehole TH0420 at the UK GeoEnergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Cheshire facility. This release from the British Geological Survey (BGS) contains a borehole schematic, borehole metadata, a report from the drilling contractors, geophysical wireline logs, metadata relating to the multilevel sampling installation and an index to samples collected from the borehole, which are archived in the National Geological Repository at BGS Keyworth. No core scanning data is available for this borehole but the core has been refrigerated in sealed liners for future sampling.

The borehole information pack from borehole TH0419 at the UK GeoEnergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Cheshire facility. This release from the British Geological Survey (BGS) contains a borehole schematic, borehole metadata, a report from the drilling contractors, geophysical wireline logs, metadata relating to the electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) installation and an index to samples collected from the borehole, which are archived in the National Geological Repository at BGS Keyworth. No core scanning data is available for this borehole and the core has been disposed of.

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.

The initial borehole information pack from the TH0424 Ground Investigation Borehole drilled as part of the UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Cheshire facility. TH0424 was drilled to TD of 101 m between the 08-Nov-2021 and 30-Nov-2021. Drill core was collected from 2 m – 101 mm with 100 mm diameter. This initial data release pack from BGS contains composite and digital wireline logs alongside daily driller's borehole records. This information pack also contains the Initial Core Scan dataset from the BGS Core Scanning Facility (https://doi.org/10.5285/b06d44e6-324d-4e19-bf78-a4520b9b87c8).
