Abstract:
Geoscience Australia has recently completed the Bonaparte CO2 Storage project, a regional assessment of the CO2 storage potential of the Petrel Sub-basin. In 2009, two greenhouse gas assessment areas were released, PTRL-01 and PTRL-02, under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act (2006). Both are proximal to the developing LNG market in Darwin, as well as a number of hydrocarbon accumulations in the Bonaparte Basin. These permits define the area of interest for the project.
