Description: High-resolution 3D seismic refraction data during research cruise MSM63 in April/May 2017 onboard RV Maria S. Merian. 15 ocean bottom seismometers sampled seismic shots around the Scanner Pockmark, central North Sea. Seismic data are in standard segy-format.

Description: Source data of the North Sea well inventory: United Kingdom (UK)- Oil and Gas Authority (Dec. 2018) - https://data-ogauthority.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/oga-wells-ed50 Contains information provided by the OGA. Wells are extracted for the area of the PGS data set PGS Mega Survey Plus. We measured the distance between all wells of the test group (n = 43) and all those who are within the seismic data set (n = 1,792; presented here) and their closest bright spot with polarity reversal. Furthermore, we calculated the mean RMS amplitudes and RMS amplitude standard deviation for a buffer radius of 300 m around the well paths for all wells inside the seismic data set and the visited wells as 300 m is the distance below which all of the visited wells of the test group showed gas release in form of flares from the seafloor. We test, if the propensity of a well to leak can be identified by using a logistic regression, which includes regressors such as well activity data and/or derived parameters such as mean RMS amplitude and mean RMS amplitude standard deviation, the distance towards the most proximal bright spot with polarity reversal and age (spud date). In order to identify the most suitable regressor combination best subset selection is employed. The main selection criterion chosen was the prediction accuracy from randomly and repeatedly splitting the visited wells into a training and a test set and then using the fitted logistic regression to predict the test data. The most suitable subset turns out to only employ the distance to polarity reversal, producing a prediction accuracy of 89% and the following logistic regression results: In order to obtain confidence intervals using the normal distribution the distance to bright spot with polarity reversal has to be normally distributed, which it is not. Yet it can be transformed to normality by adding 100 meters to the original distance and then taking the natural logarithm: Logistic regression fit for leakage of all visited wells using distance to bright spot with polarity reversal in meters as a regressor.

In order to obtain confidence bands this logistic regression is performed subtracting and adding two standard deviations from the calculated probability. The point estimate predicts leakage from 926 of the 1,792 wells, where the 95% confidence interval ranges from 719 to 1,058.

Description: Ocean Bottom and deep-towed controlled source electric field data during cruise MSM63 with electromagnetic source DASI (University of Southampton), electric field receivers Vulcan (UoS, Scripps), and Ocean bottom receivers (Ocean Bottom Instrument Facility, UK).

Description: High-resolution multibeam bathymetry data were collected during the 3D seismic survey (https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.943506, https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.943523). In 2006 onboard RRS Charles Darwin the EM-120 (13 kHz, 191 beams) was used. The data was processed to a 5x5 m grid.The data is fully processed and no additional data exist. The data is projected to UTM WGS 1984 31N.

Description: Underway temperature and salinity data was collected along the cruise track with two autonomous measurement systems, called self-cleaning monitoring boxes (SMBs). Usually, the SMBs are changed after 12 hours. While temperature is taken at the water inlet in about 3 m depth, salinity is estimated within the SMB from conductivity and interior temperature. No calibration was performed, neither for temperature nor for salinity. For details to all processing steps see Data Processing Report.

Description: 3D reflection seismic data were acquired using the P-Cable system of the National Oceanographic Centre, Southampton, UK during cruise 178 Leg 2 onboard RRS Charles Darwin between the 5th and 8th of April 2006. The responsible PI's was C. Berndt, Southampton Oceanography Centre, Southampton, UK. The aim of this cruise was to map submarine landslides on the eastern slopes of the Eivissa Channel, western Mediterranean Sea located between the islands of Ibiza-Formentera and the Spanish mainland. Berndt et al. (2012) used the acquired data to study repeated slope failure linked to fluid migration, while Lafuerza et al. (2012) studied geotechnical aspects of slope stability using this as additional data. Acquisition parameters: The source during seismic acquisition consisted of four 40 in3 Bolt 600B air guns spaced 0.75 m apart and tower at a depth of 1.5 m about 20 m behind the stern of the vessel (Berndt et al., 2012). The air guns are fitted with wave shape kits that emit approximately 10 in3 of air prior to the main volume to reduce the bubble pulse. The air pressure is 2000 psi, and the gun controller triggers the guns to figure every 7 seconds. The data were collected with 11 single-channel analogue streamers that were towed 10 m apart. The seismic cube in the Eivissa Channel covers an area of ca. 14 km2 (ca. 6.4 EW x 2.2 NS km) located at 306091.83 4280497.41; 305951.42 4278353.92; 312321.94 4277936.57 in UTM zone 31N. 3D seismic processing: Data were frequency filtered from 45 to 220 Hz and binned at 10 m bin interval before a Stolt time migration with a migration velocity of 1500 ms-1 was carried out. The resolution of the data is approximately 5-6 m vertically and for the 10 m inline and crossline spacing the horizontal resolution is 10-15 m (Berndt et al., 2012). Seismic data acquisition was performed between 10:05 PM on the 5th of April until 08:30 PM on the 7th of April 2006 (CD178 cruise report). The seismic cube is located at water depths of 550 to 825 m from east to west. Raw data is available here:doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.943523.

This required de-ghosting. Unfortunately, these attempts did not yield improved quality of the 3D seismic data. This was mainly because the 12.5 m streamers were too short for commonly used de-ghosting technique used in the industry. To increase vertical resolution individual 2D profiles were extracted from the raw dataset. Processing steps included frequency bandpass filtering, burst noise attenuation, binning, NMO-correction, stacked, and a Stolt migration with 1520 ms-1 was applied that resulted in higher resolution 2D profiles for 85 lines and 11 streamers (channels).

Description: During research cruise M87/2 COSY, Parasound echosounder data were collected onboard research vessel FS Meteor in May 2012. The profiles cover the northern sidewall of the Storegga Slide and the Nyegga pockmark field at the mid-Norwegian Margin. The uploaded dataset is converted to the SEGY data format, coordinates are stored in the bytes 73 and 77 in UTM-cm and the shot points are stored in byte 5. The coordinate system is UTM31 WGS84. For more information, see the cruise report (doi:10.2312/cr_m87_2).

Description: Multibeam bathymetry raw data were recorded in the Mediterranean Sea during cruise SO277 (GPF 19-2_012) that took place between 2020-08-14 and 2020-10-03 (Emden-Emden). The data were collected using a vessel-mounted Kongsberg EM710. Sound velocity profiles (SVP) were applied on the data for calibration. Please see environmental data (zip file) and the cruise report for details. SO277 served two scientific projects. The objectives of the first project, SMART, were to develop multi-disciplinary methodologies to detect, quantify, and model offshore groundwater reservoirs in regions dominated by carbonate geology such as the Mediterranean Sea.

Description: The 3D seismic cube is in SEG-Y format with SP in byte 5, inline number in byte 25 and xline number in byte 17. Processing includes repositioning, time migration and depth conversion using a smoothed velocity field based on Berndt et al., 2019. Acquisition parameters are discussed in the SO227 cruise report (Berndt et al., 2013).
