Eagle Ford Test Well Drilling in Texas
USGS researchers drill a research well located on the south side of U.S. 90, 7.1 miles east of Brackettville, Texas. This core was drilled by USGS during field work for an oil and gas assessment for the Eagle Ford of the Gulf Coast Basins. Cores like these provide information on the various rock layers, such as their make-up, their age, etc.

fantail of the R/V Savannah
The fantail of the R/V Savannah loaded with USGS gear recovered from near Matanzas Inlet, FL. The data collected by the sensors in winter 2018 will be used to assess storm effects on coastal inlet dynamics.
