Welcome to Houston's oldest and largest geological library

Based in Houston, TX. the Gulf Coast Library has been serving it's Members since 1967. Since then , the Gulf Coast has merged with two other Libraries, expanding it's data collections to over 472,000 well logs and over 7,000,000 pages of scout tickets, including a collection of original handwritten reports from Pure Oil, in onshore Texas and Lousiana basins.

We strive to supply the best and most current information to our members, including well logs, maps, production data, well history, historical scout information (multiple collections), driller's logs, paleo reports, core analyses and velocity surveys.

The Gulf Coast data archives house the most comprehensive inventory of geological data available to the Gulf Coast oil and gas exploration industry.
