Geothermal systems assessment: understanding risks in geothermal exploration in Australia

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium III (EABS 2008)
Authors: G.T. Cooper and G.R. Beardsmore
Date Published: September 2008

Abstract:

The conventional emphasis on temperature risks as the key aspect of geothermal exploration has resulted in other areas of risk being overlooked. This paper identifies four critical risk areas which must be considered when undertaking a holistic Geoth...

Lacustrine Petroleum Systems in the Papua New Guinea Foreland

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium III (EABS 2008)
Authors: S. Wood, H. Volk, N. Sherwood and C.J. Boreham
Date Published: September 2008

Abstract:

Oil production in Papua New Guinea (PNG) is entirely sourced from the PNG Foldbelt, and the source rocks for these oils are likely to be marine Upper Jurassic shales of the Imburu Formation. In the PNG Foreland, commercial oil accumulations are yet t...

Evaluating seal capacity of caprocks and intraformational barriers for the geosequestration of CO<sub>2</sub>

Evaluating seal capacity of caprocks and intraformational barriers for the geosequestration of CO₂

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium III (EABS 2008)
Authors: R.F. Daniel and J.G. Kaldi
Date Published: September 2008

Abstract:

The petrophysical properties of cap rocks and intraformational barriers can constrain the carbon dioxide (CO₂) containment volumes of potential geosequestration sites. Characterisation of regional seals and intraformational barriers requir...

Capel and Faust basins: Preliminary assessment of an offshore deepwater frontier region

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium III (EABS 2008)
Authors: T. Hashimoto, N. Rollet, K. Higgins, G. Bernardel and R. Hackney
Date Published: September 2008

Abstract:

The Capel and Faust basins are located in the northern Tasman Sea between eastern Australia and New Caledonia at water depths of 1,300–2,500 m (Fig. 1). Geoscience Australia has recently completed data acquisition surveys that provide new insights ...

The IntraCONtinental basinS (ICONS) atlas – applications in eastern Australia

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium III (EABS 2008)
Authors: C. Heine and R. D. Müller
Date Published: September 2008

Abstract:

We have used a combination of openly available regional and global crustal and lithosphere datasets to create a framework for intracontinental basin evaluation. In this paper, we focus on the intracontinental Murray and Eromanga basins in eastern Aus...

CO<sub>2</sub>-related diagenesis in the Tuna field, Gippsland Basin: A natural analogue study for geosequestration

CO₂-related diagenesis in the Tuna field, Gippsland Basin: A natural analogue study for geosequestration

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium III (EABS 2008)
Authors: U. Schacht
Date Published: September 2008

Abstract:

Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions are one of the major contributors to current global warming, thus technological solutions to reduce these emissions are subject of increasing worldwide interest (e.g. Faiz 2007). Presently, the ...
