Abstract

This data release contains hydraulic head data used to create a hydraulic head map of the McMurray hydrostratigraphic unit (HSU). The data were acquired from the following publicly available sources: 

  1. Alberta Environment and Parks' Alberta Water Well Information Database (AWWID)
  2. Cenovus groundwater monitoring wells pertaining to the Environmental Impact Assessment of the Cenovus TL ULC Telephone Lake In-Situ Project
  3. Pressure data from drillstem tests (DSTs) from oil and gas wells.

Data have been processed, relevant records selected, and outliers removed to compile this dataset.
