Abstract:
The Beetaloo Sub-basin comprises one of the oldest petroleum systems in the world with the Middle Velkerri and Lower Kyalla shales considered as key unconventional source-rock-reservoir targets. The basin is relatively under-explored with only few wells penetrating potential source rocks in deeper parts of the basin. In order to aid further exploration in the basin a comprehensive 3D petroleum system model has been developed. The model also includes detailed lithofacies and organic content information derived from stratigraphic forward modelling.
