Petroleum well data used for preliminary regional groundwater salinity mapping near selected oil fields in central and southern California

This digital dataset is comprised of two separate data files that contain total dissolved solids, well construction, and well identifying information for 1,131 petroleum wells used to map salinity in and around 31 southern and central California oil fields. Salinity mapping was done for 27 fields located in the southern San Joaquin Valley of Kern County (North Belridge, South Belridge, Canfield Ranch, North Coles Levee, South Coles Levee, Cymric, Edison, Elk Hills, Fruitvale, Greeley, Jasmin, Kern Bluff, Kern Front, Kern River, Lost Hills, Mount Poso, Mountain View, Poso Creek, Rio Bravo, Rosedale, Rosedale Ranch, Round Mountain, San Emidio Nose, Tejon, Ten Section, Wheeler Ridge, and Yowlumne), 3 fields in the...

All Wells, District Boundaries, and Field Boundaries from the California Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR)

Geospatial data from the California Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) were used in the prioritization analysis. Dataset include geospatial data for 222,637 petroleum wells, administrative boundaries for 514 oil, gas, and geothermal fields, and boundaries for DOGGR's 6 juristictional districts. The data were downloaded from DOGGR's Geographic Information System (GIS) Mapping website at http://www.conservation.ca.gov/dog/maps. The DOGGR GIS Mapping website is periodally updated, and the datasets downloaded by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2014 may no longer be available on the DOGGR website.
