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....-

Formations of the Gidgealpa Group in the Cooper Basin.
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...-

Petrology and diagenesis of the Tirrawarra Sandstone in the Tirrawarra Field, Cooper Basin.
57 selected drill core plug samples from the Permian Tirrawarra Sandstone in 6 wells on the Tirrawarra Field were examined petrographically using thin section, XRD and SEM techniques. The contract brief was to try to establish reasons for observed...-

Source potential of the Eromanga Basin sequence, Patchawarra Trough area (Oil Project 88-11).
A number of oil recoveries have been made, and oil shows recorded, around the margins of the Patchawarra Trough. The bulk of this oil is generally believed to be derived from the Cooper Basin, with transmission to the Eromanga section where the...-
