Organic geochemical analyses were performed on 14 conventional core samples taken from the Epsilon, Murteree and Patchawarra formation intervals in Wancoocha 1 and on 3 similar samples from the Birkhead Formation in Wancoocha 4. The rock sample...

Contains various detailed source rock analysis reports on drill core samples from the oil-bearing interval in the well.

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...

The four Stuart Shelf Joint Venture Project exploration licences collectively cover approximately 2668 square km of semi-arid pastoral land surrounding the Olympic Dam mine and extending east and south-eastwards as far as Lake Torrens [the Olympic Dam...

5 selected drill core samples from the depth interval 1800-9030 feet KB were studied palynologically. The samples were dated as Devonian, confirming an earlier, independent age determination based on chitinozoa. The material was also analysed for...

14 cored holes have intersected copper mineralization in shaley facies of the Woocalla Dolomite, and extending up into dark claystone at the base of the Whyalla Sandstone. The mineralised rocks occupy a shallow depression in the post-Pandurra erosion...

The dispersed organic matter content of drill cuttings samples from the subject wells was examined microscopically to assess its hydrocarbon potential. In general it appears that the Cretaceous and Permian sediments are unlikely to be good source...

The Purni, Peera Peera and Poolowanna Formations were evaluated in terms of depositional and structural basin analysis using the model of Genetic Increments of strata (GIS). Eight reservoir intervals have been identified and the pertinent reservoir...

Total organic carbon analyses on two diamond drill core samples taken from 334 m and 436 m depth respectively in Old Motpena 1 showed that the Cambrian sediments are organically very lean to barren, displaying no source potential for hydrocarbons.

Results of total organic carbon and Rock-Eval pyrolysis analyses for 15 drill cuttings samples from the depth interval 00 - 4490 feet KB.

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...

Gasoline range hydrocarbon analysis, carbon isotope analysis of C12+ saturates and aromatics and GC-MS analysis of C12+ naphthenes provide a consistent picture of the source affinity and thermal maturity of Cretaceous (Murta Member-type) and Jurassic...

Marsden 1 is located regionally on the eastern edge of the Battunga Trough, approximately 25 km south-west of the Toolachee Gasfield and 22 km east south-east of the Limestone Creek / Biala Oilfield. It was drilled as an exploration well to evaluate...

Includes oil and gas analysis, and porosity and permeability of 8 drill core samples.
