Aspects of coal type and rank variation, and their bearing on hydrocarbon potential in seven wells from the southern Cooper Basin.
Seven wells along a line of section in the southern Cooper Basin were studied. Examination of coals in Permian and Triassic sequences revealed marked vertical and lateral trends in vitrinite, inertinite and exinite content and their microlithotypes....-

Hydrocarbon potential and environmental interpretations of the Jurassic - Lower Cretaceous section in five wells in the Eromanga Basin.
Five wells along a north-south trending section in the southern Eromanga Basin were studied using petrographic techniques to delineate petroleum source rocks and possibly aid in environmental interpretation. The dispersed organic matter (d.o.m.) in...-
