In June 1996 MESA commissioned the Centre for Petroleum and Environmental Organic Geochemistry at Curtin University with $30 000 to investigate the applications to the Cooper-Eromanga Basin system of new molecular geochemical concepts recently...

An assessment of the petroleum potential of the Pedirka farmout area, occasioned by the February 1989 compulsory 25% acreage relinquishment of PELs 5 and 6. Items reviewed include Block geology, farmout arrangements, future commitments, an inventory...

Drilling activities, seismic acquisition and processing parameters, prospect data summaries, and current exploration program status and expenditure versus forecast levels are itemized. Exploration included: Regional Seismic Surveys: - 1964...

AIM:The 1982 Christmas Creek Seismic Survey was designed to cover a wide area of the sparsely explored western farmout blocks of PELs 5 and 6, where Eromanga Basin sediments thin and overly sub-basins of variously aged prospective sediments. Primary...

9 Eringa Trough well rock samples were studied to provide age control for a thermal and tectonic history study being conducted by MESA and the NCPGG.

16 rock samples from wells and outcrop in the western Eromanga Basin / Eringa Trough region were analysed for their apatite grain fission track properties to derive an interpretation of the geothermal history of the enclosing strata.

Petroleum Exploration Licence 50 in northern South Australia covers approximately 9714 square km of the prospective Eromanga Basin, in which over 400 million barrels of oil in place have been discovered since 1977. To date, only 3 exploratory wells...

A study of source-rock richness has entailed the evaluation of TOC data for the Eromanga and Cooper Basins. TOC analyses were averaged and plotted on 1:250 000 basemaps, on a formation by formation basis. The data were contoured by honouring all data...

Three core plug samples from the Birkhead Formation oil reservoir interval in Wancoocha 3 and Wancoocha 4 were subjected to special core analysis investigations of their electrical properties, after cleaning and pressure saturation with a simulated...

This report describes the work performed during the first year of a 3-year PhD research project, which commenced on 24/2/93. To start with the author carried out a literature review of previous work on petroleum geochemistry in the Cooper and Eromanga...

Drill cuttings samples of the Birkhead Formation from a further 16 wells to those originally sampled were selected for a petrographic study of the organic matter they contain. Comparisons were made between the organic petrographic characteristics of...

Primary regional seals for Eromanga Basin oil reservoirs in the Cooper Sector of PELs 5 and 6 are the Birkhead Formation and the basal part of the Murta Member. Intra-formational seals occur locally within the Poolowanna, Birkhead and Westbourne...

Duerden Energy NL contracted Exploration Laboratories Pty Ltd to carry out a soil gas geochemical survey of 1012 line kms between 27/8-11/9/91, to hand sample the near ground surface (< 40 cms depth) soil profile for extractable hydrocarbons in the...

Contains open hole drillstem test raw field data, the field testing contractor's results and operator's evaluation of the flow/buildup test of the Birkhead Formation oil reservoir perforated interval 5320-5335 feet KB, performed in March 1986, an...
