Report on a gechemical evaluation of the Mokari 1 and Purni 1 wells, Pedirka Basin, South Australia.
4 samples of conventional drillcores from the Lower Permian section in each of Mokari 1 (depth interval 6074.5-6618.5 feet KB) and Purni 1 (depth interval 4742-5810 feet KB) were analysed for source rock geochemistry. Measurements of vitrinite...-

Organic petrology: Macumba 1 and Poolowanna 1 wells through the Eromanga, Simpson Desert and Pedirka Basins.
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...-

Petroleum geochemistry and source-rock potential of the Arrowie, Pedirka, Cooper and Eromanga Basins, central Australia.
Samples of ?Ordovician to Cretaceous sediments taken from 5 Pedirka Basin petroleum exploration wells, and of crude oils recovered from the Jurassic Poolowanna and Triassic Peera Peera Formations intersected in Poolowanna 1, were examined. The...-

Source rock and petroleum geochemistry of the Eringa Trough, Pedirka Basin.
6 drill core samples and 68 drill cuttings samples from selected organic-rich intervals in 4 Eringa Trough wells were subjected to organic geochemical and petrographic analyses to enable assessment of their hydrocarbon generative potential. Following...-

Organic petrology of samples from a selected group of wells in or near the Arckaringa Block.
34 selected drill core and cuttings samples from six wells were assessed by petrographic methods for their degree of organic maturation and petroleum source potential. The sampled sequence ranged in age from ?Devonian through to Permian, Jurassic and...-
