The Danish Deep Subsurface Database, Samba

The database contains information on deep drilling, carried out under a permit, cf. the Subsoil Act, as well as geophysics (especially seismic), licenses and reports. These are exploration, estimation, delineation and production drillings concerning oil/gas, geothermal energy, gas storage and salt, as well as scientific drillings. The dataset contains technical, administrative and geological information from the drillings and about geophysical measurements in the drillings.

Statement

The Samba database was established in 1988 as cooperation between the DGU (now GEUS) and the Danish Energy Agency. The oldest well in the database was drilled in 1936. Today the database contains approx. 2000 wells and 1400 seismic surveys.

In 2014 the GEUS web shop Frisbee was introduced, providing easy access to, and download of, the data from all released appraisal and exploration wells in Denmark. Data can be purchased by credit card or invoice. The final well report and the deviation data can be downloaded free of charge. In 2016 the 3D seismic data became available in Frisbee, and the acquisition report is available for download free of charge.
