It encompasses data derived from various environmental matrices, including activities (Bq/l) and exposure levels (Msv), with particular emphasis on petroleum products and waste, such as produced water, scales, and sludges. The dataset aims to contribute to a better understanding of the distribution of TENORMs in marine environments, as well as inform future radiological safety norms, contribute to the formulation of regulatory policies, and facilitate the design of mitigation strategies. The information, covering literature and datasets spanning five continents over the past 70 years, has been organized to enable intuitive inquiries, making it a useful resource for policymakers and academics.This dataset has been carefully reviewed and curated in accordance with PANGAEA's exceptionally high quality standards. However, due to discontinued communication from the authors' side, it did not receive the usual formal approval by the authors and therefore lacks final scientific validation.
