  • Delimitation of areas and identification of geological formations with potential for CO2 storage in mainland Portugal and its respective Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The areas were obtained from a combination of historical data (mechanical oil exploration surveys and their geophysical logs and geophysical prospecting using the seismic reflection method), lithostratigraphic interpretation, requirements for storage in saline aquifers, as well as an update of the results of the COMET, CO2STOP and HYSTORIES projects, carried out in the framework of the CSA-GSEU project (WP3 Geoenergy, thematic subgroup CO2 and Hydrogen Storage).

  • Geological Map of Portugal, at scale 1:200 000, composed of the sheets published at this scale (Sheets: 1, 2, 4, 6, 7 and 8).

  • The marine energy potential maps for mainland Portugal consists of the mapping the main wind and wave parameters for the offshore environment at the height of 100m (offshore wind resource) and at surface (wave energy resource). The offshore wind resource is performed with a sophisticated mesoscale atmospheric model, capable of describing the main wind phenomenology near the Portuguese coast, and contains the mapping of the average wind speed [m/s], Wind Power Flux [W/m2] and the map of the annual number of hours at full capacity NEPS of a standard reference turbine as well as the NEPS maps [h/year] for specific type of bottom-fixed wind turbine systems - "Jacket" and "Monopile" or Floating – WindFloat. The offshore wind resource maps represent the climatology of the wind resource as well as characteristics of the wind phenomenology associated to the land-sea interaction along the Portuguese coast. Regarding the wave energy maps, the estimation of the wave energy resource is based in estimating the main sea-wave characteristics and the wave energy production for standard different wave system types – oscillation water column converter; floating two-body heaving converter bottom-fixed oscillating flap converter. The maps of the wave energy resource are a merging of observational data (boys) and information from the ONDATLAS database as well as data from numerical modeling with the MAR3G model all with 10 years of data . This way the wave energy resource maps describe the main characteristics of the average wave resource for a period of 10 years, which is representative of the sea state climatology of Portugal. All wave energy maps are expressed in [kW/m]. Also, all wind and wave energy resource maps are processed with a high spatial resolution of 1km x 1km from the coast up to the bathymetric of 300m. Some wind and wave energy maps are freely available to download in a course but larger grid area (5Km x 5Km). In time, the offshore wind maps will include higher heights.

  • Database that stores and catalogues thin sections and polished surfaces, as well as the corresponding source samples, providing a valuable resource for the scientific community.

  • The Critical Raw Materials Deposits Map in Mainland Portugal is a compilation of the known mineral occurrences and deposits of the most critical raw materials according to the latest list published by the European Commission in 2023.

  • QAFI is a database of faults with geological evidence of proven activity during the Quaternary period (the last 2.6 million years according to the limit officially established by the SQS in 2009) of the Iberian Peninsula.

  • Prototype of a seamless data model of the Digital Geological Map of Portugal, at scale 1:200 000, in which the mapped units of mainland Portugal were inventoried and organized according to a unified legend (LU). Standardization and harmonization work was carried out between contiguous maps, as well as updating the units through extensive bibliographic research and, above all, leveraging on the experience and knowledge existing at LNEG. The following elements are available: LU code, unit code, unit name, and associated lithological description. This work is under development and reflects the situation as of September 2025.

  • Geology and Geomorphology of the portuguese offshore of the Pre-Quaternary, using as reference the Geological Chart of the Immersed Area, Scale 1: 2 000 000, of the Geological Chart of Portugal, Scale 1: 1 000 000. National Laboratory of Energy and Geology (LNEG) 2010 .
