Oil on the Patchawarra Flank – some implications from the Sellicks and Christies oil discoveries

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: M.J. Altmann and H.M. Gordon
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

This paper presents some aspects of hydrocarbon habitat along the southwestern flank of the Patchawarra Trough in the Cooper-Eromanga Basin, South Australia. The interpretations are based upon the Sellicks-1 and Christies-1 oil discoveries within the...

A critical review of data quality and content applied to FWS and similar tools

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: M. Wiltshire
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

Acoustic waveform data routinely acquired during logging operations is subsequently processed for extraction of P and S wave velocities. The emergent data is then widely used as a basis for interpretation of reservoir properties and fluid content, fr...

Late Cretaceous-Eocene basin evolution in the SW Pacific from integrated geology; marine geophysics, and global mantle convection models

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: R. Sutherland, P. King and R. Herzer
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

There are two significant events during the evolution of the South Pacific since 100 Ma that allow its history to be subdivided. The first event was the Late Cretaceous final fragmentation of Gondwana. Seafloor magnetic anomalies show that oceanic se...

Hydrocarbon generation, migration, leakage and seepage on the West Tasmanian Margin

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: G.W. O'Brien, P.R. Tingate, J.E. Blevin, C.J. Boreham, A. Mitchell, C. Calver and A. Williams
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

A study of the Sorell Basin, and especially the Strahan Sub-basin, on the west Tasmanian margin, has revealed the presence of an active hydrocarbon generation, migration, leakage and seepage system. Source rock mapping, combined with 2D basin modelli...

Sequence stratigraphy of the intra-Latrobe Group, Flounder Field, Gippsland Basin. Implications for the building and upscaling of 3D geological models

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: S.J. Riordan, S.C. Lang and T.H.D. Payenberg
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

The intra-Latrobe Group in the Flounder Field of the Gippsland Basin is used to study the depositional controls on possible cell architecture in 3D geological models that are to be upscaled for reservoir simulation. The aim is to demonstrate the crit...

Devonian petroleum systems in Queensland

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: J.J. Draper, C.J. Boreham, K.L. Hoffmann and J.L. McKellar
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

Devonian, marine, sedimentary rocks are common throughout Queensland, but petroleum potential is restricted to the Adavale Basin system (grouping of the Adavale Basin, Warrabin Trough and Barrolka Trough), the Belyando Basin (newly named) and the Bur...

$Horizontal microfractures and core discing in sandstone reservoirs, Cooper Basin, Australia$

Horizontal microfractures and core discing in sandstone reservoirs, Cooper Basin, Australia

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: T. Flottmann, D.J. Campagna, R. Hillis and D. Warner
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

Core discing is common in gas wells in the Cooper Basin, central Australia. The occurrence of discing is consistent with the high in situ horizontal stresses that prevail in the basin. Thin sections in intervals of disced core reveal the occurrence o...

Hot dry rock geothermal exploration in Australia

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: R.R. Hillis, M. Hand, S. Mildren, J. Morton, P. Reid and S. Reynolds
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

Hot dry rock (HDR) geothermal energy is obtained by circulating water between injection and production wells through hot subsurface rocks. The recovered hot water should be around 250?C for efficient electricity generation. South Australia has become...

4D Evolution of fault systems in sedimentary basins: a review

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: K.R. McClay, P.S. Whitehouse, A. Amilibia, J. De Vera and T. Djebbar
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

Understanding the four dimensional evolution of faults is fundamental in the exploration for, and exploitation of, hydrocarbons in basin systems. This evolution of fault systems in rifts, inverted extensional basins and in foreland fold and thrust be...

Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2004

Abstract:

The Taranaki Basin was formed by Late Cretaceous eastern Australasian rifting, followed by deposition of syn- to post-rift Palaeogene coal measures, which contain both source rock and reservoir horizons. During Oligocene regional subsidence, turbidit...
