Palynological Report: FBH Port Campbell Wells

Cretaceous-era samples from the F.B.H. Port Campbell No.1 and No.2 wells in Victoria, Australia, form the basis of this dataset. The report provides a provisional correlation method for portions of the Cretaceous sections between the wells and the outcropping Otway Group. It likely contains palynological data derived from the examination of core and cutting samples.

Use Cases

• Correlating Cretaceous-age rock sections between wells based on palynological analysis.
• Studying the stratigraphic relationship between subsurface well sections and surface outcrops of the Otway Group.
• Analyzing Lower Cretaceous (Albian) and Upper Cretaceous palynomorph assemblages from Victorian well samples.

Strengths

• Focuses on a specific, named geological feature (F.B.H. Port Campbell wells) and time period (Cretaceous).
• Provides a provisional correlation method for Cretaceous sections, suggesting analytical utility.

Limitations

• Critical metadata such as row count, column names, file size, license, and author are missing from all sources.
• The dataset's primary content appears to be a textual report (PDF/HTML), limiting structured data analysis.
• Conflicting 'last updated' dates (2026-05-14 and 2026-05-06) suggest potential metadata inconsistency.
