RB 80/00054 Coongra no. 1 well completion report.
Aim was 1) to determine whether Permian sediments extended across the northern Muloorina Ridge, and thereby connected the Arckaringa and Pedirka basins; 2) to identify basement high-speed seismic refractor. The well was abandoned in Early Cretaceous...-
