AIM: The 1988 Gambier Seismic Survey of semi-detailed and regional data acquisition was shot principally to upgrade the prominent Glenburnie lead in the northeast of PEL 28 into a drillable prospect. This lead, identified 1n 1986 by the Burrungule...

AIM: The 1987 Orana Seismic Survey, consisting of 14 lines with a total coverage of 55.6 line kms, was shot to further detail leads identified by the 1985 Burrungule Seismic Survey, other than the single lead (McNamara Prospect) which was confidently...

AIM: This seismic survey of 35 lines with a total coverage of 200.1 line kms was shot to further detail leads identified by the 1985 Burrungule Seismic Survey, and thereby attempt to upgrade at least two of them to drillable prospect status. The work...

AIM: This seismic survey of 32 lines with a total 352.26 line kms coverage was conducted in the two most prospective areas of the licence in order to fulfil the Licence Year 1 work commitment of at least 250 line kms of seismic acquisition. The two...

Contains a report by the wireline logging contractor Schlumberger on the checkshot survey of the well used to calibrate the sonic log and generate synthetic seismograms, a separate pre-interpretation report by Schlumberger on MSD (mean square dip)...

This report, prepared as part of the renewed licence Year 6 exploration work commitment, summarises Beach Petroleums understanding of the geology of PEL 28 that is relevant to hydrocarbon exploration. From this it also points the way to future...

Microfloras in 8 drill core samples and 1 drill cuttings sample taken from Monash 1 have indicated and confirmed the presence of Palaeocene, Cretaceous and Permian sediments. Correlations in the Palaeocene are made with the type sequence in...

Beach Petroleum NL Monash 1 exploratory well located 5 miles north-west of Monash, and 20 miles south-west of Renmark, was drilled to a total depth of 3445 feet. The well penetrated a sequence of Tertiary, Cretaceous and Permian sedimentary rocks,...

Examination of Cores 1 to 12 indicates that between 995 and 2916 feet Mt Salt No.1 intersected the Upper Eocene Dartmoor Formation and between 3142 and 3152 the Bahgallah Formation (Paleocene to Lower Eocene). Between 3152 and 3679 feet the well...

The sediments of the Gambier Embayment are mainly of Cretaceous and Tertiary age. Lower Cretaceous subsurface units have been referred to outcropping rocks of the Otway and Merino Groups, but satisfactory criteria for their identification with...

A planktonic foraminiferal fauna from below the Rivernook Member of the Dilwyn formation in Victoria is important in earliest Tertiary correlations and age determinations in the Otway Basin. This fauna and the Rivernook fauna, previously described are...

The most significant feature of the area, covered by the Naracoorte 1:250 000 sheet is the Padthaway Ridge which underlies all but the southernmost part of the area, where Mesozoic sediments, of the Otway Basin lap onto the ridge (Padthaway...

Following discussion between this Department's Resident Geologist at Naracoorte and the E. & W.S. Department's Regional Engineer, Southern, a request was received from the latter Department in a letter dated 12th July, 1971, to sink and pump test...

Groundwater of the South East province forms one of the most important water resources of the State. All towns south of Keith and, indeed, most towns in the Murray and Otway Basins rely on groundwater for their supplies. Therefore it is important that...

The Tarpeena T.W.S. Bore No. 2 was completed in October 1973 to augment the existing town water supply. An aquifer test was carried out, using Bore No. 1 as an observation bore. The test, of 8 hours duration, gave a value of transmissivity of 1088...

The Beachport Town Water Supply No. 3 was flow-tested using a series of orifice plates. The testing programme consisted of a main test and five stages in a flow recession test. The orifice plates were used not to measure flow rate, but to ensure a...

A package of fourteen mineral exploration tenements were taken up that straddled the north-eastern and south-western sides of the Padthaway Ridge, to allow the licensee to explore both the Tertiary Murray Basin and Gambier Basin sediments where they...

A number of portions of licence areas flanking known outcropping uraniferous basement rocks of the Padthaway Ridge have recently been relinquished, after originally being taken up to explore for possible economic sandstone-type uranium deposits that...

Numerical modelling of the hydrogeology in the area south of Mount Gambier was used to examine the potential of increasing the Permissible Annual Volumes of extraction for the unconfined aquifer, beyond the levels of assessed vertical recharge to the...
