The Officer Basin in northeastern South Australia is poorly explored for petroleum in spite of widespread oil shows indicating that petroleum has been generated. In addition, there are significant geological similarities between the Officer Basin and the Lena-Tunguska oil and gas province in Siberia (USSR). The latter is one of the larger petroleum provinces in the world with an estimated potential of 200 trillion cubic feet (6 trillion cubic metres) of gas and 100 billion barrels (16 billion cubic metres) of oil.
