Description
The Georgina Basin covers 325,000 km² of western Queensland and the Northern Territory. Geoscience Australia's Onshore Energy Systems Group presents a synopsis of a multidisciplinary regional study, integrating reprocessed HyLogging data from 25 wells with wireline logs, biostratigraphy, TOC, and XRD measurements. The dataset was last updated in March 2026.
Use Cases
Characterizing potential hydrocarbon source rocks based on mineralogical variations from HyLogging data.
Refining stratigraphic correlation models across depocentres using integrated biostratigraphic and wireline log data.
Identifying 'hot shale' units for petroleum exploration based on spectral response correlations with TOC and gamma.
Testing correlative models across basin depocentres using middle Cambrian carbon isotope excursion data.
Strengths
Data is internally consistent, reprocessed using a common set of mineral scalars for basin-wide analysis.
Multidisciplinary integration includes HyLogging, wireline logs, biostratigraphy, TOC, and XRD measurements.
Covers a significant geographic area of 325,000 km² within the Georgina Basin.
Limitations
Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the specific southern depocentres studied.
