Geoscience Australia Data compiled this hydrogeological inventory for the Amadeus Basin, a sedimentary basin in central Australia. The dataset groups descriptive attributes into themes including location, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater management. It was last updated on 2026-04-20.
Geoscience Australia conducted a review of source rock and oil geochemical data for the offshore northern Perth Basin. The work supports the release of two major offshore exploration blocks, W13-19 and W13-20, and references data from 5 wells on the Wittecarra Terrace and the Houtman-1 well. The dataset was last updated on 2026-04-20.
A dataset from the Australian Ocean Data Network presents a geochemical overview of hydrocarbon accumulations in the Gippsland Basin. It includes findings from a 2015 AAPG/SEG conference, detailing estimated ultimate recoveries of 16.5 TCF of gas, 4026 MMbbl of oil, 385 MMbbl of condensate, and 752 MMbbl of LPG as of the end of 2012. The data addresses questions about petroleum systems, source rocks, and migration pathways.
Subsidence and thermal history analysis of 31 wells and 25 depocentre sites examines hydrocarbon expulsion in the Browse Basin. Models incorporate new palaeo-bathymetric estimates and kerogen kinetic data for Jurassic and Early Cretaceous source units. The dataset was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated in April 2026.
Geochemical data from cores from BMR Ivanhoe No. 1 and thirteen petroleum exploration wells evaluate source rock potential in the Darling Basin. The analysis indicates hydrocarbon prospectivity is confined to the concealed western Darling Basin, where block-faulted troughs contain thick sequences of Devonian to Carboniferous sediments. The eastern flank of the Lake Wintlow High - Wilcannia High is considered the most prospective region based on the limited data.
A review of petroleum exploration in the Gippsland Basin up to February 1976 provides an assessment of knowledge and future potential. The basin contains up to 4500 inches of fluvio-deltaic and marine sediments and has initial reserves of more than 300 million cubic meters of oil and 200 billion cubic meters of natural gas. The Australian Ocean Data Network published this review.
Geoscience Australia's Onshore Energy Security Program produced precompetitive geoscience data and assessments for frontier sedimentary basins from 2006 to 2011. The dataset includes interpretations of deep seismic reflection profiles and petroleum systems maturation modelling for the Arrowie, Georgina, and Darling basins. It provides insights into basin architecture, stratigraphy, and hydrocarbon potential for energy resources including oil, gas, uranium, thorium, and geothermal.
Geophysical survey data from the Lord Howe Rise submarine plateau in the Tasman Sea, collected by the R.V. Sonne cruise and referenced in DSDP Site 207. The dataset includes seismic profiles and interpretations of sediment-filled basins, some containing up to 4000 m of sediment, and discusses petroleum potential. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
The Bureau of Mineral Resources and South Australian Department of Mines and Energy conducted a joint regional framework study of the Great Australian Bight in 1986-1987. The project involved multichannel seismic surveys, sampling, heatflow work, and reinterpretation of existing seismic data. This folio is the principal product of the joint study, covering basins including the Duntroon, Denman, Great Australian Bight, Polda Trough, and Bremer.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a map of oil and gas pipeline infrastructure across Australia. Attributes have been added to comply with data standards, and line work has been coded using map annotations. The dataset includes additional data for specific Acreage Release Areas.
A map of land benchmarks determined by the Expert Committee for Land Values in Berlin on January 1, 2025. The data is provided by the Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy) and is accessible via a WMS (Web Map Service) format.
A 30-day research cruise in 1989 measured light hydrocarbon gases in the water column over five offshore sedimentary basins in southeastern Australia. The Australian Bureau of Mineral Resources conducted the survey in cooperation with Transglobal Exploration and Geoscience and Amoco Production Company. Data likely includes gas chromatography results from a towed 'sniffer' system and sediment samples from known oil and gas fields.
1 January 2025 land benchmarks established by the Expert Committee on Land Values in Berlin. The data is provided by the Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy) and is accessible via a Web Feature Service (WFS).
Australian Ocean Data Network provides a report on 73 petroleum accumulations found in the Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia, as of 30 June 1992. The report details the geological setting, trapping mechanisms, and development infrastructure for these resources. It is available in PDF and HTML formats.
Geoscience Australia's Bremer Sub-basin Study, commenced in 2004, investigates the petroleum potential of this deep-water frontier area offshore southwestern Australia. The dataset includes analysis of a 1974 regional seismic survey and geological studies identifying Middle Jurassic-Early Cretaceous structures. No wells have been drilled in the sub-basin, making this a foundational study for a largely unexplored region.
A detailed report on the Mount Salt No. 1 Well drilled in the Otway Basin, South Australia. The well was drilled by Reading and Bates (Australia) Pty Ltd for Oil Development No Liability to a depth of 10,044 feet between May and September 1962. It includes results from logging, testing, and coring operations, documenting stratigraphy and traces of hydrocarbons.
Australia's east coast north of Bass Strait has been very sparsely explored for petroleum, with much of the geology virtually unknown. This report from the Australian Ocean Data Network provides a preliminary assessment of petroleum potential from New South Wales/Victoria border to the southern boundary of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. It identifies at least four sedimentary basins, including the Sydney and Maryborough Basins, and discusses possible offshore extensions of others.
The Bonaparte Basin, specifically the Vulcan Sub-basin and northern Browse Basin, is the focus of this geochemical analysis. The dataset likely contains results from bulk and compound-specific isotope analyses, gas chromatography, and GC-MS of saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on 2026-04-16.
South Australia's Otway Basin contains data from the Geltwood Beach No. 1 well, drilled in 1963 to a depth of 12,300 feet. Beach Petroleum No Liability commissioned the well to test hydrocarbon potential, with a full program of logging, testing, and coring. The well was plugged and abandoned as a dry hole after finding only traces of gas and salty water.
Eighteen petroleum accumulations have been discovered in central Australia's Amadeus Basin since 1963, with three classified as economic. The petroleum is believed to be of algal/bacterial origin, with crude oil API gravity ranging from 18 to 54 degrees. This report from the Australian Ocean Data Network provides resource estimates and production data as of 31 December 1985.
