This dataset contains cone penetration test (CPT) data and interpreted soil behavior profiles collected from the PacWave South Test Site in September 2023. Testing was conducted aboard the Seacor Lee off the coast of Newport, Oregon, using an AP van den Berg ROSON-100 seabed CPT system equipped with a standard 10 cm^2 u2-type cone. The CPTs were performed by ConeTec within the designated PacWave Lease Area to characterize subsurface conditions relevant to marine energy infrastructure. The dataset includes raw files containing depth profiles of corrected cone tip resistance (qt, MPa), sleeve friction (fs, kPa), pore water pressure (u, MPa), and derived soil behavior type index (SBT). Each profile corresponds to a unique sounding. Visual representations of the CPT results are provided as JPEG images showing the variation of each parameter with depth. A PDF map of test locations and a MATLAB script for basic data visualization are also included. The soil behavior classification is based on the method described in Robertson (2009), and all measurement units are clearly specified.
