Nineteen hydrocarbon accumulations, six of which are commercial, had been discovered in the Canning Basin as of January 1993. The report, likely from Geoscience Australia, details their geological context, production methods, and exploration history. Oil is produced from Famennian reefs and other structures, with sources traced to Devonian and Carboniferous shales.
The Bremer Sub-basin is a deep-water frontier area in the Bight Basin off the southern coast of Western Australia. Geoscience Australia's study, which commenced in 2004, aimed to determine if the sub-basin formed under suitable geological conditions to generate and trap large volumes of hydrocarbons. The dataset includes information from a regional seismic survey conducted in 1974 and analysis of Middle Jurassic-Early Cretaceous structures.
656, 980, and 238 measurements of CO2, CH4, and N2O soil fluxes from 300, 289, and 114 globally-distributed mangrove sites, respectively. Lukas Lamb-Wotton compiled this dataset through a literature review and international scientific collaboration. The aim is to quantify broad-scale patterns and examine if environmental variables can predict global mangrove soil GHG fluxes.
Gidgealpa No. 1 was the first well to encounter Cambrian rocks in the subsurface of the Great Artesian Basin. Drilled in 1963 by Delhi Australian Petroleum Ltd and Santos Limited, it reached a total depth of 13,114 feet and was subsidized under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act. The well provided significant new geological information, including thick Mesozoic sequences and encouraging hydrocarbon shows in Permian and Cambrian formations.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a detailed report on the Mount Salt No. 1 Well, drilled in the Otway Basin of South Australia. The well reached a total depth of 10,044 feet between May and September 1962, with a full program of logging, testing, and coring. It was drilled to test Cretaceous sediments for petroleum potential, recording traces of crude oil and a gas show.
Seventy-three petroleum accumulations discovered up to 30 June 1992 in Western Australia's Carnarvon Basin. The report from Geoscience Australia details the geological setting, trapping mechanisms, and development infrastructure for these offshore and onshore resources. It describes accumulations in Triassic to Cretaceous sedimentary rocks within specific sub-basins and the associated production facilities.
Southeastern Australia's offshore sedimentary basins were surveyed for light hydrocarbon gases in the water column between February 1 and March 2, 1989. The 30-day research cruise, a cooperative project involving the Australian Bureau of Mineral Resources and Transglobal Exploration and Geoscience, collected data in the Gippsland, Bass, Otway, Stansbury Basins and the Torquay Sub-basin. Measurements were taken using a hydrocarbon 'sniffer' towed near the seafloor to analyze gas concentrations and compositions.
A report details 17 petroleum accumulations discovered in the Amadeus Basin of central Australia between 1963 and 1985. The data includes resource estimates, production figures, and physical properties of the oil, gas, and condensates. The dataset is provided by Geoscience Australia Data.
The Georgina Basin in northern Australia's Northern Territory and Queensland is the focus of this dataset. Hyperspectral logging data from HyLoggerTM instruments were evaluated from 13 petroleum, mineral, and stratigraphic wells in the basin's southern Dulcie and Toko synclines. The data characterize mineralogy and spectral properties of middle Cambrian marine sediments, including key hydrocarbon source rock units.
Beginning in 1995, this dataset provides estimated gasoline sales volumes for counties in New York State, derived from tax collection data. The data is weighted for regional price differences and differing county tax rates, though individual county data for New York City is not available. It is maintained by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).
A 1:25,000 scale geospatial dataset for the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) developed by Rob Muller, Wayne Cook, Allan Nicholson, and Alie Cowood. It contains hazard ratings for land salinity, stream salt load, and stream EC, as well as landscape function information and management strategies for each Hydrogeological Landscape (HGL) unit. The dataset is fit for use as a tool for assessing land management issues at the paddock-scale in the ACT.
Australian onshore and offshore areas within 3 nautical miles offered for petroleum work program bidding. The dataset is managed by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action and includes current and some expired releases, with data last updated in April 2026. It specifically excludes Commonwealth waters data, which is available from a separate source.
Geoscience Australia's Alexey Goncharov outlines new basement and crustal studies tackling offshore definition problems. The research focuses on finding the right combination of geophysical techniques to define basement beneath Australia's offshore basins. Knowledge of basement depth, boundaries, and evolution provides clues to the petroleum potential of Australia's sedimentary basins.
BMR Bulletin presents results from a marine geological survey conducted in the Arafura Sea in 1969. The survey covered approximately 240,000 km² of the northern Australian continental shelf between 130° and 136°E and 8° and 12°S. Work was performed using vessels including the Yomiuri submersible and the San Pedro Sound.
Eight basin modules covering the North West Shelf, Petrel Sub-basin, and Papuan basin in PNG were examined. Two relational databases contain biostratigraphic data (STRATDAT) and reservoir, facies, and hydrocarbon shows data (RESFACS). Petroleum systems analyses were conducted on each area, comparing source quality and timing of generation.
Geoscience Australia manages bathymetry and petroleum acreage boundary data for Australia's marine zone. The organization uses innovative 3D flythroughs and video editing to integrate raster and vector geospatial data into multimedia products for communication. These techniques have been applied for several years and are highly regarded by stakeholders in marine zone management and petroleum exploration.
An annual inventory of major natural resource projects in Canada that are under construction or planned within the next 10 years. Natural Resources Canada publishes this snapshot, which includes project value, timing, and geographic location. Projects must meet specific capital worth thresholds, such as $50 million for energy and mining or $10 million for clean energy.
The Australian Ocean Data Network hosts a bulletin presenting detailed studies of the Tertiary marine sequence in Gippsland, Victoria. The information was obtained from scout drilling by Victorian and Commonwealth Governments and wildcat drilling by private companies. This study aims to facilitate regional stratigraphy, palaeogeography, and correlation studies, with implications for oil exploration in Australia.
A 2007 assessment by Geoscience Australia examines the petroleum potential of a proposed marine park region offshore northern Australia. The report covers three geological provinces: the Timor Sea, Arafura Sea, and Gulf of Carpentaria. It was commissioned by the Department of the Environment and Water Resources and other stakeholders.
BOREAS TGB-06 data provides isotopic composition of methane, including carbon and hydrogen isotopes, from beaver ponds and fen bogs. This dataset contains measurements of soil methane consumption and associated 13C fractionation effects collected from chamber enclosures at several sites. Samples were collected during specific field campaigns in 1993, 1994, and 1996 across the Southern and Northern Study Areas (SSA and NSA).
