Abstract
The petroleum datasets contain information on all known oil and gas deposits throughout the world. Two datasets are available: one for on-shore deposits and another for off-shore deposits. Version 1.1 represents a slight update of the original dataset where some variables have been renamed to increase consistency and missing fields have been assigned a unique missing value. Version 1.2 represents a further update of the dataset. The Codebook, Country profiles, and List of sources remain unchanged.
