Subsurface Data Digitization and Interpretation Services

2026-11-03

Technical consultation regarding formatting , structuring , and archival of subsurface datasets to ensure compatibility with Bureau data management practices . 15 . 3 Subsurface Data Digitization and Compilation - Services may include , but are not limited to , the following : 15 . 3 . 1 Log Curve Digitization - Digitization and delivery of wireline geophysical log curves in non - proprietary , industry standard digital formats such as LAS ( v . 2 . 0 ) or raster / image ( e . g ., TIFF or GeoTIFF ). Services may include digitization of individual curves or for entire well - log datasets as indicated in subsections below . Normalization of scanned or digitized log curve datasets into consistent LAS formats suitable for integration and analysis . Quality control screening for completeness , unit consistency , and internal logic . Preparation of metadata sufficient to support Bureau review , integration , and long - term management . Quality control procedures and documentation includes compilation of well header information and location data , including assembly of ancillary subsurface metadata derived from public records and authorized proprietary sources , where directed by the Bureau . Where available , the Coordinate Reference System ( CRS ) must be specified . 15 . 3 . 3 . 1 Log Curve Digitization by Curve - Digitization and delivery of wireline geophysical log curves by individual curve . 15 . 3 . 3 . 2 Log Curve Digitization by Curve - Digitization and delivery of wireline geophysical log curves for entire well - log datasets . 15 . 3 . 2 Raster Scanning of Geophysical Logs - Scanning of borehole geophysical well logs into depth registered raster formats suitable for archiving and analysis . All datasets shall be delivered in non - proprietary , industry standard digital formats ( e . g ., TIFF or GeoTIFF ) suitable for analysis and long term archival . 15 . 5 Third - Party Data Use - The Bureau may provide access to Bureau held or licensed third party datasets for the limited purpose of performing authorized services . Contractors shall use such data only for the authorized project , shall not redistribute such data , and shall comply with any licensing restrictions communicated by the Bureau . Interpretive deliverables may reference derived analyses but shall not include raw third party datasets unless expressly authorized . 15 . 6 Deliverables - Deliverables shall be defined within individual task orders and may include , but are not limited to : • Depth registered raster images of scanned well logs compatible with commercially available geologic and geophysical interpretation software or archival datasets ; • Digital datasets including LAS ( v . 2 . 0 ) and image ( TIFF or GeoTIFF ) files and associated metadata , including QA / QC of well header information ; • Documentation describing sources , methods , assumptions , and limitations ; and • Technical memoranda summarizing methodology and data confidence where requested . • Deliverables shall be provided electronically in formats specified in the applicable task order .
