At the time of writing (March 1967) there are six electrically logged oil exploration wells in the Gambier Embayment. These wells are still relatively widely spaced so detailed correlation is not feasible at this stage. However, broad similarities...

Palynological analyses of 12 drill cuttings samples from the petroleum exploration well Morum 1, which was drilled in 1975 in the offshore part of the Gambier and Otway Basins, show distinctive palynofloral assemblages. The oldest samples are dated...

Palynological analyses of eight drill cuttings samples from Burrungule 1 well, in the onshore part of the Gambier and Otway Basins, show distinctive microfloristic assemblages. The oldest samples are dated as Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian), and...

The well sections analysed are mainly of Cretaceous age and are largely in the early to middle mature zones for oil generation. The Lower Cretaceous sections in Geltwood Beach 1 and Chama 1a have attained sufficient maturity for the commencement of...

Two areas (OT96-A and B) located in the South Australian sector of the onshore Otway Basin are available until 27/9/96 for applications of grant as Petroleum Exploration Licences (PELs). Both areas contain a number of undrilled prospects and leads...

This monograph presents an integration and summary of all new data, and a consolidation of current concepts and ideas on the geological history, discovered fields and petroleum potential of the Otway Basin in South Australia. Many of these...
