Readme.txt This CD has several spreadsheets that list various holdings of the California Well Sample Repository in Bakersfield, California. These spreadsheets are used at the Core Repository to maintain our inventories of core samples, micropaleo reports, geologic reports and seismic velocity surveys. The data in most of these spreadsheets can be sorted or "key word" searched to determine if information is available in areas of interest to users. All of these spreadsheets are "works in progress" so there will undoubtedly be errors and omissions but they are as accurate as possible as of March 31, 2008. File descriptions: CWSR core database as of 20080331.xls - This is the primary tracking tool for the 6200+ wells throughout California for which the Repository has some type of core, cutting, sidewall or other rock samples. Many wells have multiple entries in the spreadsheet. The sample type key is as follows: CC - Core chips C - Whole core D - Ditch (washed samples) S - Sidewall (or punch) core samples SC - Slabbed core PR - Preserve core P - Unwashed ditch samples * - In temporary storage Beck and Steinmeyer Paleo Reports.xls - This spreadsheet lists the personal paleo report files of Stan Beck and Ed Steinmeyer. MDBM Paleo Reports.xls - Unocal's extensive paleo report files for wells located in the Mt. Diablo Base & Meridian SBBM Paleo Reports.xls - Unocal's extensive paleo report files for wells located in the San Bernardino Base & Meridian HBM Paleo Reports.xls - Unocal's extensive paleo report files for wells located in the Humboldt Base & Meridian Offshore Paleo Reports.xls - Unocal's extensive paleo report files for wells located offshore California Geologic Reports.xls - Contains cursory descriptions of geologic reports in the CWSR files. It is believed that these files were originally compiled by Getty Oil Company Wells with velocity surveys.xls - The CWSR is now the custodian for a large collection of seismic check-shot surveys that are now available to the public. This list shows all wells with Velocity surveys that can be obtained as scanned images from the CWSR.
