Abstract:
Cross-polarization magic-angle spinning 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) has several
desirable features for the characterization of kerogen in petroleum source rocks. The technique is nondestructive, uses small samples and can potent...
The Development and Status of the Mesozoic Palynostratigraphy of the North West Shelf, Australia
- Publication Name: The North West Shelf Australia
- Authors: B. Ingram and R. Morgan
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: July 1988
Abstract:
Palynology (the study of acid insoluble microfossils) has grown from a scientific curiosity in the 1830s through a rudimentary time-tool in oil exploration in the 1960s to provide the modern explorer with precise age dating and detailed information o...
Results of Exploration, Browse Basin, North West Shelf, Western Australia
- Publication Name: The North West Shelf Australia
- Authors: I. Willis
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: July 1988
Abstract:
The Browse Basin lies entirely offshore, beneath the remote northwestern continental shelf of Australia. It
