Petroleum Potential of the Deepwater Taranaki Basin

Petroleum Potential of the Deepwater Taranaki Basin

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: V. Stagpoole, C. Uruski, R. Funnell and D. Darby
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2011

 

Abstract:

The petroleum potential of the Deepwater Taranaki Basin was recognised after a high quality multi-channel seismic reflection line was acquired over the basin in 1996. Interpretation and modelling of this line extends the prospective area of the Taran...

Petroleum prospectivity of Cretaceous strata in the deepwater Taranaki Basin, New Zealand

Petroleum prospectivity of Cretaceous strata in the deepwater Taranaki Basin, New Zealand

Publication Name: PESA's Eastern Australasian Basin Symposium II
Authors: P. Baillie and C. Uruski
Reference Type: Book Section

Abstract:

The 6,200 km Astrolabe non-exclusive 2D seismic survey, acquired during 2001 over the deepwater extension of the Taranaki Basin from the shelf-edge to the 2,000 m isobath, revealed a Cretaceous section, thicker and probably older than any previously ...

Effect of Magmatism on the Northern Taranaki Basin Petroleum System

Effect of Magmatism on the Northern Taranaki Basin Petroleum System

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: V. Stagpoole, R. Funnell and D. Darby
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

Volcanic activity and the effects of magmatism have often been considered detrimental to the prospectivity of petroleum basins. In the northern Taranaki Basin, Middle to Late Miocene andesitic arc magmatism associated with the Mohakatino Volcanic Cen...

Migration of Oil and Gas into the Maui Field, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand

Migration of Oil and Gas into the Maui Field, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: R.H. Funnell, V.M. Stagpoole, A. Nicol, S.D. Killops, A.G. Reyes and D. Darby
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

The oil and gas/condensate Maui Field in the Taranaki Basin lies 30 km off the west coast of the North Island, New Zealand. The field consists of two broad anticlinal closures formed by Miocene compression, and structurally enhanced by Plio-Pleistoce...

Charge Histories of Petroleum Reservoirs in the Gippsland and Taranaki Basins – Evidence From the Analysis of Oil Inclusions and Crude Oils

Charge Histories of Petroleum Reservoirs in the Gippsland and Taranaki Basins – Evidence From the Analysis of Oil Inclusions and Crude Oils

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: H. Volk, S.C. George, M. Lisk, S.D. Killops, M. Ahmed and R.A. Quezada
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

Two case studies from the Blackback (Gippsland Basin) and the McKee oilfields (Taranaki Basin) demonstrate the potential of the Molecular Composition of Inclusions (MCI) technique to provide detailed charge histories of petroleum reservoirs. In Black...

Re-Evaluating Thermal History Models for the Taranaki Basin, New Zealand Using Apatite Fission Track and (U-Th)/He Data From Well Sections

Re-Evaluating Thermal History Models for the Taranaki Basin, New Zealand Using Apatite Fission Track and (U-Th)/He Data From Well Sections

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: P.V. Crowhurst, P.F. Green and P.J.J. Kamp
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

Reliable reconstruction of thermal histories in sedimentary basins is a key aspect of reducing exploration risk, e.g. In defining the timing of hydrocarbon generation in source kitchens and identifying tectonic episodes which may have caused disrupti...

A comparison of hydrocarbon plays in the Bass, Gippsland, Otway and Taranaki Basins

Publication Name: Second South-Eastern Australia Oil Exploration Symposium - Technical Papers
Authors: J.K. Davidson and K.C. Morrison
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 1986

 

Abstract:

A modified version of the Global Basin Classification (Kingston et al., 1983) can be used to identify the geological controls of hydrocarbon plays in, and between, sedimentary basins. The input data are descriptive, requiring minimal interpretation w...
