Australian Oil and Gas Pipeline Infrastructure Map

Geoscience Australia provides a national dataset detailing oil and gas pipeline infrastructure. The data was converted from a Microstation format map and enhanced with attributes for data standards and specific Acreage Release Areas.

Use Cases

• Map pipeline infrastructure across Acreage Release Areas for spatial planning and resource management.
• Analyze the distribution of pipeline line work relative to Petroleum Exploration and Development Titles.
• Integrate pipeline annotation data with other spatial datasets for environmental or economic impact studies.

Strengths

• National dataset covering all of Australia's oil and gas pipeline infrastructure.
• Data is updated annually, with the last update recorded for March 2026.
• Attributes have been added to comply with established data standards.

Limitations

• The dataset's specific row count, column count, and sample data are unavailable for assessment.
• Original data conversion from a proprietary Microstation format may introduce legacy artifacts.
• The license is listed as 'notspecified', creating potential ambiguity for commercial use.
