Carbonate carbon and to a lesser extent organic carbon are persistent in their pattern of vertical distribution regardless of structural position. Detailed correlations may be made across the SE of the basin. Idealised chemostratigraphic successions...

Contains results of the general maceral analysis and vitrinite reflectance studies performed on 15 composite drill cuttings samples taken from selected intervals between 3810 and 6540 feet depth.

A sedimentary sequence of Permian age provides both the source and reservoirs for the major portion of the hydrocarbons discovered in the Cooper Basin. This sequence is composed of shales, siltstones, coals and sandstones, and in 1967 was named the...

AIM:The 1980 Woolkanie Seismic Survey was primarily aimed at detailed gridding over areas of known commercial hydrocarbon accumulation, and more specifically was directed toward locating drilling exploration/appraisal sites on or near existing fields,...

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

AIM:The 1978 Perigundi Seismic Survey was the fourth modern, digital Vibroseis survey conducted in the Cooper Basin, and was based on similar concepts to the 1973 Mudlankie, 1975 Tooroopie and 1976 Callamurra regional surveys, namely: 1) to further...

This report forms part of a continuing study of the Permian in the Cooper Basin by the PELs 5 and 6 licensees. All cuttings and cores from wells drilled in the Moomba and Big Lake field areas, and from Burley 1 in the Nappamerri Low depocentre, have...

Contains open hole drillstem test raw field data, and results of a consultant's vitrinite reflectance and maceral analyses of 13 selected composite drill cuttings samples, from Jurassic and Permian 30-foot intervals over the depth range 5370 to 8430...

The Birdsville Track Ridge (BTR) Block is dominated by a large, low relief Cambro-Ordovician basement' ridge which trends NNE-SSW through the block. Permian sediments onlap the eastern flank of the ridge, but only extend into the easternmost part of...

This review summarises Block exploration to date, provides a lengthy outline of the petroleum geology, and quantifies future hydrocarbon potential with respect to play concepts and mapped prospects and leads. Exploratory works comprising 49 wells,...

The following organic geochemical analyses were performed on 7 sidewall core and 4 crude oil samples from Wancoocha 2, 1 crude oil sample from Wancoocha 3 and 1 crude oil sample from Pando 1: 1) C1-C31 whole oil gas-liquid chromatography; 2) C4-C7...

Drilling of 39 exploration and appraisal/development wells to investigate potential oil reservoirs within the Lake Hope Block has resulted in the recovery of economic hydrocarbons from 26 of those wells, and has identified 7 reservoir units throughout...

AIM: To mature several large structural leads, map possible stratigraphic traps on the flanks of regional highs and extend the regional Vibroseis coverage. METHODS: Survey dates: 10/4/79 - 23/11/79. Energy source: Vibroseis. CDP coverage: 1200%....

Palynological analyses contribute to characterising the amount, type and maturity of organic matter in sedimentary rocks, and thus assist in determining what are potential, effective and post-mature source rocks. Measurement of the volume of organic...

Report discusses the contribution that palynological examination by transmitted and reflected light microscopy can make, alone or in conjunction with geochemical methods, towards characterising the maturity, amount and type of organic matter in a...
