Petroleum Wellbores
Comprehensive overview of petroleum well drilling in Norway's offshore and onshore regions, categorised into different well types: active production wells, development wells, exploration wells and completed or abandoned wells. The dataset is supplied by Geodata AS, with Sokkeldirektoratet (the Norwegian Offshore Directorate, formerly Oljedirektoratet) as the underlying data owner.
The dataset is mainly relevant for property analysis in industries close to petroleum and for sites in petroleum regions (Sørlandet, Vestlandet, the Stavanger region and parts of Nord-Norge), where oil and gas history has shaped the local economy and the industry structure. For developers in other regions, the dataset rarely provides direct decision support. It forms part of Placepoint's map layer for energy. Related: Petroleum Cultural, Petroleum Infrastructure.
