- Reference Type: Magazine Article
- Date Published: November 2001
Abstract:
Integrated assessment of the Rock-Eval and coal chemical properties of Late Cretaceous-Tertiary coaly sediments in the Taranaki Basin, New Zealand, has revealed complex stratigraphic variations in bulk petroleum
potential and provided insights of the...
A Marine Source Rock in the Gippsland Basin?
- Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
- Authors: J.D. Gorter
- Reference Type: Magazine Article
- Date Published: November 2001
Abstract:
Conventional wisdom holds that all oils recovered to date in the Gippsland Basin are derived from the thermal maturation of terrestrial organic matter deposited in lower coastal plain strata. However, condensate recovered from Anemone lilA in the sou...

- Authors: John Scott
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: July 1994
Abstract:
Potential source rock intervals are stratigraphically widespread in Western Australia, being documented in every period from the Ordovician to the Cretaceous. Rich source rock intervals are common in continental
alluvial and continental to marginal m...
Geochemical correlation of source rocks and crude oils from the Cooper and Eromanga Basins
- Publication Name: The Cooper & Eromanga Basins Australia
- Authors: C.C. Jenkins
- Reference Type: Book Section
- Date Published: June 1989
Abstract:
Within the South Australian and Queensland sectors of the Cooper and Eromanga Basins, a detailed geochemical study was performed on source rocks and crude oils to define the relative hydrocarbon contributions from each Basin.
Source rocks from the Ju...
Kerogen characterisation and organic and mineral diagenesis of potential source rocks in Jurassic units, southern Eromanga Basin, Queenland
- Publication Name: The Cooper & Eromanga Basins Australia
