Novel approaches to the determination of the origins of petroleum hydrocarbons in the Cooper-Eromanga Basin system.
In June 1996 MESA commissioned the Centre for Petroleum and Environmental Organic Geochemistry at Curtin University with $30 000 to investigate the applications to the Cooper-Eromanga Basin system of new molecular geochemical concepts recently...-

1982 seismic survey, Christmas Creek, final report.
AIM:The 1982 Christmas Creek Seismic Survey was designed to cover a wide area of the sparsely explored western farmout blocks of PELs 5 and 6, where Eromanga Basin sediments thin and overly sub-basins of variously aged prospective sediments. Primary...-

Apatite fission track analysis of samples from the western Eromanga Basin and Eringa Trough, Australia.
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.-

Source rock richness in the Eromanga and Cooper Basins. Total organic carbon (TOC) data.
A study of source-rock richness has entailed the evaluation of TOC data for the Eromanga and Cooper Basins. TOC analyses were averaged and plotted on 1:250 000 basemaps, on a formation by formation basis. The data were contoured by honouring all data...-
