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...

A 50 square mile area centred immediately south-southeast of Lake Cootabarlow, and lying ~12 miles south of the Moolawatana 1 water bore, was taken up by Australian - based holding company Frome - Broken Hill Co. Pty Ltd as an Oil Prospecting Licence...

Report collates in tabular format the available MESA open file, published literature-based and other University of Adelaide organic geochemical data on the hydrocarbon prospectivity of sediments underlying the Simpson Desert region. Likely oil...

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.

Contains results of government consultants' palynological and palaeontological studies of drill cuttings and cores, plus data obtained from DST fluid sample water and gas analyses and from conventional core analyses and source rock analytical...

17 rock samples from 5 wells 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.

Apatite fission track analysis (AFTA), detailed source rock property and organic maceral vitrinite reflectance data has been collected from several key wells neighbouring the Eringa Trough, as part of a collaborative ARC grant project run by MESA and...

Results of a study aimed at providing a better thermal history framework for understanding the post-Palaeozoic thermal evolution of parts of the Cooper-Eromanga Basin, South Australia, based on apatite fission track analysis, zircon fission track...

Mature potential source rocks occur in the Juraasic Poolowanna Formation and the Triassic Peera Peera Formation. The lower Poolowanna interval has a greater source potential than does the upper Poolowanna. Marginally mature potential source rocks...

Composite drill cuttings from 3 Eromanga Basin water bores were sampled by Delhi over shallow intervals within which residual hydrocarbon shows had been reported by earlier visual logging, and were submitted to Amdel for geochemical confirmation of...

This company study of the Eromanga Basin sequence within PELs 5 and 6 and ATP 259P was designed to provide the Delhi Petroleum exploration consortium with data on the following: (a) thickness and correlation of Aptian-Albian units throughout the...

Innamincka no. 1 well was drilled to a depth of 12,638 feet KB and penetrated a sedimentary sequence of Mesozoic and Palaeozoic rocks ranging in age from Cretaceous to ?Devonian. Marine Cretaceous (Albian) carbonaceous mudstones and siltstones were...

Betoota No. 1 Well was drilled to a depth of 9824 feet and penetrated a sedimentary sequence of Cretaceous and Jurassic rocks to 5757 feet before entering steeply dipping red bed conglomerate and sandstone the age of which is uncertain. Marine...

The Cooper Basin region has had a long structural history, reflected in differing structural styles ranging from thrust faults, to extensional horst and graben developments, to wrenching. The timing of this structuring in relation to the main period...

The near surface section encountered in Kalladeina 1 contains a thick Plio-Pleistocene section, whilst the Lower Tertiary sediments ubiquitously present in the Cooper's Creek Basin, are either absent or very thin. Of particular interest is the...

Dullingari 1 to a depth of 2798 metres has intersected a sedimentary sequence of Tertiary, Mesozoic and Permian rocks, the age of the sediments below 2756 metres being at present uncertain. This report presents lithological data and stratigraphic...
