Central Graben and West and East of Shetlands
These maps detail reservoir distribution from the Devonian through to the Middle Eocene throughout the Central and Northern North Sea area and over the West of Shetlands area. The maps were prepared from a large well database, which is documented on the reservoir layers, and on all published data.
