National Geothermal database, including cataloging available bottomhole temperatures for oil and gas wells throughout the state.
 
Additionally, we maintain a GIS database of oil and gas well locations (surface and bottomhole when available), well unit and field
 
boundaries, and infrastructure, and provide an ArcGIS MapService that contains geologic data.
