Australian Oil and Gas Pipeline Infrastructure

Australian Ocean Data Network provides a geospatial dataset detailing oil and gas pipeline infrastructure across Australia. The data originates from an annually published map, 'Petroleum Exploration and Development Titles,' and has been converted and enhanced with attributes for data standards and specific Acreage Release Areas. It likely contains line work representing pipelines, with annotations used for coding.

Use Cases

• Mapping pipeline networks for infrastructure planning based on geospatial line work.
• Analyzing proximity of pipelines to Acreage Release Areas for exploration assessments.
• Conducting environmental or risk studies using the annotated pipeline locations.

Strengths

• Derived from an authoritative, annually published government map.
• Enhanced with standardized attributes and coding from map annotations.
• Includes specific data for Acreage Release Areas.

Limitations

• Column names and exact record counts are unknown, limiting detailed analysis.
• Update dates conflict between sources (2026-06-04 and 2026-04-16).
• Original Microstation format conversion may imply data structure simplifications.
