Abstract:
New high resolution geochemical information was acquired for fluids from recent Canning Basin wells and interpreted in context with previous work on fluid typing and correlation by Geoscience Australia (GA). Ungani field oils are interpreted to be derived from the same/very similar clastic source rock, comprising bacterial and marine algal matter deposited under anoxic to sub-oxic conditions, and generated within the peak oil window for a high quality marine source rock.
