Abstract:
Hydrocarbon exploration in the Exmouth Sub-basin, North West Shelf, Australia, has resulted in the discovery of a variety of oil and gas accumulations mainly in Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous intervals. However, the distribution of the different petroleum system elements, including Jurassic and Triassic intervals, is poorly determined, but required for improved understanding of the complex charge history, as indicated by the variety of hydrocarbon types encountered in the basin.
