Hydrocarbon potential and environmental interpretations of the Jurassic - Lower Cretaceous section in five wells in the Eromanga Basin.
Five wells along a north-south trending section in the southern Eromanga Basin were studied using petrographic techniques to delineate petroleum source rocks and possibly aid in environmental interpretation. The dispersed organic matter (d.o.m.) in...-
