Find the number of hydraulically fractured horizontal, vertical, and directional oil and gas wells by drill (spud) year and by 8-digit U.S. Geological Survey hydrologic unit (HUC).

This is a list of all published data available from the Utilization of Carbon and other Energy Gases - Geologic Research and Assessments Project from 2012 through 2019.  This list will be updated as new data sets are published.

A database of images related to the characterization of fossil fuel resources in the United States and the world.

Query, browse, and download descriptive stratigraphic data associated with numerous locations throughout the United States.

World Coal Quality Inventory (WOCQI) Spatial Viewer

The National Coal Resources Data System (NCRDS) began as a cooperative venture between the USGS and State geological agencies in 1975 and focused on the stratigraphy and chemistry of coal. The current component databases of NCRDS include: USTRAT, USCHEM, and USCOAL.

This viewer allows users to see the location and underlying data associated with NCRDS USTRAT data points. The NCRDS Spatial Viewer was expanded to display data from the USCHEM and USCOAL databases in FY2011.

Data containing geodetic location, field observations, sample analyses, bed thickness; lithology; depth of burial, moisture, ash, and sulfur content, heat value, and major-, minor-trace-element contents.

This map shows the provinces assessed by the USGS for undiscovered oil and gas resources. 

The Geologic CO2 Sequestration interactive web map includes investigated basins, assessed areas, stratigraphic columns, and well density information.

This website is a data visualization companion to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) report titled Federal Lands Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sequestration in the United States: Estimates 2005-14. The maps and charts on this site include the estimated emissions and sequestration from both fossil fuel activities and ecosystem processes on Federal lands only.
