It is the result of the aggregation and harmonization of datasets provided by several sources from all over the EU (plus Norway). The database contains lines representing the actual routes of offshore pipelines (where available) in the following countries: Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia, Spain (Andalucía). Each line has the following harmonized attributes (where available): status (in service, decommissioned, under construction, proposed, planned), country, code, name, year, medium (air, condensate, 'control', cooling water, gas, geothermal heating, glycol, methanol, oil, sewage, water), operator, from and to locality or facility, length (metres) and size (inches).

Validation and quality assurance remain up to primary data sources, while harmonization is carried out by Cogea. For further information on validation and quality assurance, it is suggested that primary data sources are contacted. Generally speaking, data are to be considered very reliable, because they come from national sources officially in charge for their collection.When a pipeline crosses more than a country, it may appear as two different pipelines which do not perfectly overlap. This is because it was not possible to harmonize the geometric component of the data, as each source reports a slightly different pipeline's path and there is no way to know which one is more accurate.
