Tithonian Play Hydrocarbon Potential Assessment for Dampier Sub-Basin, Australia

A quantitative appraisal of the hydrocarbon potential in the Tithonian play of the Dampier Sub-Basin and Rankin Trend, offshore Western Australia. The assessment includes data from six drilled wells and uses Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate four undrilled prospects. The dataset was published by Geoscience Australia Data and was last updated on 2026-03-25.

Use Cases

• Assessing exploration risk based on Monte Carlo simulation results mentioned in the description
• Comparing discovered and prospective hydrocarbon resources based on well data from Angel and Egret
• Modeling geological play potential for the Tithonian interval in the Dampier Sub-Basin

Strengths

• Includes data from six specific drilled wells, including the Angel gas and Egret oil discoveries.
• Assesses four named undrilled prospects (Courtenay, Wallcot, Nickol, Finucane) using a quantitative method.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
