Summary

This data release contains data associated with the journal article "Modeling the maturation history of the stacked petroleum systems of the Williston Basin, USA". Collectively, the data release includes 13 child items and metadata files that provide detailed descriptions of the attributes, processing steps, and original data sources. There is also a data table, "Williston_Basin_Data_Release_Overview.csv" that describes how all the child items are linked with one another.

Purpose

These data and interpretations were collected to support a petroleum systems modeling study as a part of a broader, multi-year project to assess the various petroleum systems of the Williston Basin. These data are useful for regional-scale (basin-scale) geologic interpretations of subsurface stratigraphy, structure, temperature, and maturity of source rocks at present day and through geologic time. The data release was assembled in such a way to provide users with the means to rebuild the 3D basin model from scratch, either in PetroMod or another basin modeling software package. All inputs and settings for model construction are included.
