abstract This British Geological Survey (BGS) geophysical and sampling survey took place in July/August 1975 in North Sea on board the MV Whitethorn. The purpose was to gather data which could be used to map the regional geology of the area and investigate pockmarks. Seabed samples and cores were collected using Gravity corer and Vibrocorer. Sea floor data were collected using a echo-sounder. Subsurface data were gathered using a pinger. These data are archived by BGS. Technical details of the survey are contained in BGS Internal Report 75/19. BGS MGU report 98 & UC97. BGS Geotechnical report WN/EG/76/12.
