Abstract:
The discovery of heavily biodegraded oil in Novara 1 in 1982 by Esso/BHP branded the Exmouth Sub-basin as a
"difficult" exploration province for almost two decades. A total of 24 barrels of biodegraded, 16.7? API oil was
recovered from a drill-stem t...
Assessing a basin’s potential for geological sequestration of carbon dioxide: an example from the Mesozoic of the Petrel Sub-basin, NW Australia
