Boreham C.J. and de Boer R.A. published a 1998 study on the origin of hydrocarbons in the Gilmore Field, Adavale Basin, Queensland. The research uses molecular and multi-element isotopic data to differentiate gas sources, including wet gas from Devonian source rocks and overmature dry gas from a deep source. The dataset likely contains geochemical measurements supporting these findings.
Use Cases
- Modeling hydrocarbon generation and expulsion based on vitrinite reflectance values of 1.4-1.6 percent mentioned in the description
- Identifying overmature gas sources based on isotopic composition and high nitrogen content described in the study
- Assessing reservoir compartmentalization and migration pathways based on the distribution of overmature dry gas described for the Lissoy Sandstone
- Correlating Devonian-sourced oils across basins using source-sensitive biomarkers and carbon isotope composition referenced in the description
Strengths
- Study is peer-reviewed and published in The APPEA Journal
- Analysis employs a combination of molecular and multi-element isotopic approaches as described
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
