Although we try to ensure the information is as reliable as possible, the GSI takes no responsibility for the accuracy of the data or for decisions made on the basis of using the data. Due attention must be paid to the location accuracy given with each well record, which ranges from 10m to more than 1km (townland accuracy). Digital files are updated periodically and users are responsible for obtaining the latest version of the data.</span></p><p style='margin:0 0 14 0;'><span>There are 31 published data fields (designated in square brackets below, []).
