The Exmouth Plateau Deep Water Frontier: A Case History
- Publication Name: The North West Shelf Australia
- Authors: P.M. Barber
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: July 1988
Abstract:
Despite the presence of extremely large rotated fault blocks and associated compaction drape closures, drilling of 11 wells on the Exmouth Plateau discovered only non-commercial dry gas accumulations, including the large Scarborough Gas Field. The de...
Cainozoic Depositional History of the North West Shelf
- Publication Name: The North West Shelf Australia
- Authors: M. Apthorpe
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: July 1988
Abstract:
The depositional history of the North West Shelf is interpreted from a compilation of the palaeontology and stratigraphy of approximately 80 petroleum exploration wells. The Cainozoic sequence consists of four major sedimentary units, or cycles, thre...
Governmental Geological Organisations: 5. Geological Survey of Western Australia
- Publication Name: PESA Journal No. 11
- Reference Type: Journal Article
- Date Published: September 1987
Barracouta: history of exploration and development, and geology of the field
- Publication Name: Second South-Eastern Australia Oil Exploration Symposium - Technical Papers
- Authors: G.H. Roder and M.W. Sloan
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1986
Abstract:
The Barracouta Field represents a bench-mark in Australia's oil and gas industry. The Barracouta 'Top of Latrobe' gas, in Upper Eocene fluvio-deltaic sands, was Australia's first discovered commercial offshore hydrocarbon accumulation. The discovery ...
A history of the search for commercial hydrocarbons in the Otway Basin complex
- Publication Name: Second South-Eastern Australia Oil Exploration Symposium - Technical Papers
- Authors: R.C. Sprigg
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1986
Abstract:
Botryococcus algal scums (coorongite) on sub-coastal lagoons and offshore oil seeps, resulting in the stranding
of 'coastal bitumen' at not infrequent intervals along the southern Australian coasts, initiated the first oil drilling in Australia in 18...
Subsidence and maturation history of the Bass Basin from geohistory calculations
- Publication Name: Second South-Eastern Australia Oil Exploration Symposium - Technical Papers
- Authors: P.E. Williamson and C.J. Pigram
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1986
Abstract:
Geohistory analysis of 16 wells from the Bass Basin was carried out as part of BMR's Bass Strait Project.
This study was undertaken to investigate the thermal and subsidence history of the basin in relation to its
depositional history, structural for...
Regional evaluation of the tectonic and thermal history of the Gippsland Region
- Publication Name: Second South-Eastern Australia Oil Exploration Symposium - Technical Papers
- Authors: K.A. Hegarty, I.R. Duddy, P.F. Green, A.J.W. Gleadow, I. Fraser and J.K. Weissel
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1986
Abstract:
The subsidence history at several locations within the Gippsland Basin is reconstructed using biostratigraphic
and lithostratigraphic data from onshore and offshore wells. Four distinct Zones which correspond to different patterns of subsidence are i...
Fission Track Dating and Thermal History Analysis of Apatites from Wells in the North-West Canning Basin
- Publication Name: The Canning Basin, W.A.
- Authors: A.J.W. Gleadow and I.R. Duddy
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1984
Abstract:
Fission track dating of detrital apatites recovered from sediments in hydrocarbon exploration wells in the northwestern Canning Basin shows two distinct trends in apatite annealing behaviour. One trend is the normal
reduction in fission track length ...
Interpretation of Additional Conodont Colour Alteration Data and the Thermal Maturation and Geothermal History of the Canning Basin, Western Australia
- Publication Name: The Canning Basin, W.A.
- Authors: Robert S, Nicoll and John D. Gorter
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: December 1984
Abstract:
Examination of conodont colour alteration (CAl) in samples from 59 petroleum exploration wells and extensive
outcrop collections along the northern margin of the Lennard Shelf forms the basis for a study of the thermal maturation and geothermal histo...
