Abstract/Summary

This report presents a record of the infrastructure provided by the UK Geoenergy Observatories Cheshire Energy Research Field Site. It sets out the basic monitoring, sample collection and analysis that will be carried out by the British Geological Survey on behalf of the UK research community and international collaborators. All data generated by the British Geological Survey and researchers who use the facility will be freely and openly available. It is expected that individual research projects, funded separately, will have specific operational requirements, and where possible on the grounds of capability and capacity these will be accommodated, following discussion with and approval from the facility’s management team. The design of the infrastructure was based on the requirements of the UK Geoenergy Observatories’ Science Plan, which was generated following community consultation. As with all drilling projects, the realities of what can be achieved in the context of geological constraints, health and safety, and budget have meant that the final design is necessarily a compromise. Researchers should use this document as the definitive description of the Observatories’ infrastructure, and refer to it in their published outputs.
