The Heatherdale Shale and the stratigraphically younger Karinya Shale are transgressive units within the Lower Cambrian of the Karinya Syncline. Black muds of the Heatherdale Shale were deposited in an outer ramp setting of the Stansbury Basin under...

Contains the results of organic geochemical analyses performed on two oil-stained siltstone and sandstone drill cuttings samples obtained from 101.4 and 107.9 metres depth in bore NB/SR 12, and on two core samples cut from 161.3 and 196.8 metres depth...

3 drill core samples from the Early Permian in Purni 1 and Witcherrie 1 were analysed for TOC, Rock Eval pyrolysis, petrographic and vitrinite reflectance data to allow a check and comparison with anomalous aromatic hydrocarbon biomarker ratios...

Contains the results of an organic petrology contractor's vitrinite reflectance and maceral analysis of 2 Permian sidewall core samples, plus the results of the tenement operator's separate analyses of 14 and 21 Late Carboniferous to Early Permian...

The Cooper and Eromanga Basins region, Australia's most productive onshore petroleum province, has a regional groundwater flow system over 1500 km in length. While the present-day hydrology of the Cretaceous and Jurassic aquifer system is well...

Six crude oil samples, 3 Jurassic and 3 Permian, taken from exploration wells located in the Patchawarra Trough, were subjected to detailed organic geochemical analysis of their naphthenes and aromatic hydrocarbons by gas chromatography - mass...

This report critically reassesses the biomarker geochemistry of the crude oil show encountered in the Wilkatana 1 well, using new analytical data, then compares its molecular composition with that of other Australian Cambrian oils, and discusses the...

Report summarises the stratigraphic, sedimentological and organic geochemical data so far assembled for the Heatherdale Shale where it outcrops on the Gulf St Vincent coastline south of Adelaide, with the aim of: - establishing the location and...

A detailed study of the stratigraphy, sedimentology and thermal history of the Heatherdale Shale, the youngest unit of the Early-Mid Cambrian Normanville Group (Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia), was undertaken to elucidate its petroleum source...

5 Early Cambrian drillcore samples and 1 Permian outcrop sample were submitted for determination of the aromatic maturity of their preserved organic matter, to augment the existing petroleum source rock organic geochemistry database for the Stansbury...

Analysis was conducted on eight coal samples and one oil sample from Moorari 1, Tirrawarra 1 and Tirrawarra 2. The hydrocarbons extracted from the coal samples were investigated by gas chromatography.

The state of diagenesis of the Brolga 1 (and apparently the Tirrawarra 2) samples - as indicated by the vitrinite reflectance, the geochemical and petrophysical data, and a qualitative estimate of the sandstone compaction - is about the same as that...
