Information System (NRIS)'' Development for the State of Oklahoma.
Awardee: Oklahoma Geological Survey (University of Oklahoma).
Term of Assistance (Grant) Award: 12 months.
Cost of Assistance Effort: The total estimated project value is
$375,000 of which $75,000 will be borne by the awardee, with the
remaining $300,000 funded by DOE.
Objective: The objective is to continue to develop, edit, maintain,
utilize and make available to the public the oil and gas Well History
File portion of the Natural Resources Information System (NRIS) for the
State of Oklahoma. The proposed work is considered to be relevant to
the DOE mission in that the program will provide a mechanism for
communication and interactive research efforts between DOE and the
Oklahoma Geological Survey in the development and maintenance of an
information system in response to the need for a computerized,
centrally located library containing accurate, detailed information on
the state's natural resources. The one-year cooperative research
program extends a unique opportunity to complete the foundation of the
NRIS oil and gas Well History File by processing the remaining
historical records of Osage County, estimated to total 53,000, bringing
the Well History File to approximately 420,000 records when completed.
