Physical and meteorological data collected by shipboard ADCP and CTD, and moored meteorological buoy data collected in the Chukchi Sea from February 2007 to October 2013 by contractors for Shell, ConocoPhillips and Statoil (NCEI Accession 0093399)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 06, 2026 at 01:18 AM | Dataset Last Updated: December 01, 2015 at 12:00 AM
These data are part of a multi-year baseline environmental studies data set collected as part of the permitting process prior to drilling exploration wells. The objectives of the Chukchi Sea Environmental Baseline Studies Program are: 1. To provide data for pre-exploration and development-related activities 2. To provide data for permit applications 3. To provide input to planning of future operations and associated mitigation 4. To provide additional baseline data that can be used to assess and measure the potential environmental effects of offshore oil and gas exploration and development in the northeastern Chukchi Sea. These data were submitted under Annex 1 of the Memorandum of Understanding between NOAA and the oil companies (NOAA Agreement NOS-MOA-2011-080).
