[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] Korea National Oil Corporation (KNOC) will provide petroleum development technical data, including samples and rock fragments collected during domestic and overseas drilling processes, free of charge to academia, research institutes, and general companies.

On the 20th, KNOC announced that it will disclose data obtained during the exploration, development, and production of oil and gas.

The data includes physical materials such as drilling cores and rock fragments acquired during the drilling process, as well as various digital data stored in file formats.

The corporation has digitized domestic continental shelf petroleum development technical data from 2017 to 2018 into a database and is sequentially expanding the database of overseas petroleum development technical data.

Until now, KNOC has provided database viewing and lending services only to employees of academia, research institutes, and companies related to oil and gas development.

Starting this year, the scope has been expanded to include employees of general corporations and undergraduate and graduate students.

The list of petroleum development technical data available for viewing and lending can be checked and requested through the 'Petroleum Development Technical Data Disclosure System' guide on KNOC's website.

Lists of domestic continental shelf seismic survey data and drilling well data are also available.

Seismic data from the western and southern seas of the domestic continental shelf, as well as cores and rock fragments from drilling wells, are also available for lending.
