Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the Victorian Gas Program (VGP), the Geological Survey of Victoria (GSV) is studying petroleum systems components (reservoir, seal and source), to assess the hydrocarbon prospectivity of the Victorian Otway Basin and estimate the potential for further onshore and offshore discoveries within Victoria's jurisdiction. This report details an analysis of the distribution and characteristics of Austral 1 petroleum sub-system elements that was completed to support the Otway Basin hydrocarbon prospectivity assessment. Petroleum Supersystem (Bradshaw, 1993; Summons et al., 1998). In the Otway Basin, the Austral Petroleum Supersystem is divided into three sub-systems (Edwards et al., 1999; O'Brien et al., 2009) that are differentiated based on the depositional environments of the source rocks for each sub-system. The Austral 1 petroleum sub-system comprises Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous fluvial and lacustrine source rocks of the Casterton Formation and Crayfish Subgroup. The key reservoir-seal pairs for the Austral 1 sub-system are the sandstones and shales of the Sawpit Formation (Eid et al., 2021) and the Pretty Hill-Laira formations reservoir-seal pair. The Pretty Hill Formation reservoir has been targeted in Victoria with no commercial success while the Sawpit Formation reservoir, which hosts commercial hydrocarbons in South Australia, has not been considered in Victorian basin analysis prior to the VGP. The extent and characteristics of the Sawpit Formation and Pretty Hill-Laira formations reservoir-seal pairs in Victoria have been defined and characterised. The Sawpit Formation reservoir-seal pair is restricted to the Penola Trough, while the Pretty Hill-Laira formations reservoir-seal pair is present across the majority of the Victorian onshore Otway Basin. Reservoir units associated with both reservoir-seal pairs have effective reservoir quality, while sealing units are mappable and have good seal capacity where data exists. Hydrocarbon indicators in several wells suggest that Austral 1 source rocks have sufficient maturity to generate and expel hydrocarbons, with modelling undertaken as part of the VGP (van Aarssen, 2020) supporting the presence of active source kitchens associated with the Austral 1 petroleum sub-system within the Penola Trough and along the Victorian coastline.
Download or read book History of the Australian Vegetation written by Robert S. Hill and published by University of Adelaide Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Australian vegetation is the end result of a remarkable history of climate change, latitudinal change, continental isolation, soil evolution, interaction with an evolving fauna, fire and most recently human impact. This book presents a detailed synopsis of the critical events that led to the evolution of the unique Australian flora and the wide variety of vegetational types contained within it. The first part of the book details the past continental relationships of Australia, its palaeoclimate, fauna and the evolution of its landforms since the rise to dominance of the angiosperms at the beginning of the Cretaceous period. A detailed summary of the palaeobotanical record is then presented. The palynological record gives an overview of the vegetation and the distribution of important taxa within it, while the complementary macrofossil record is used to trace the evolution of critical taxa. This book will interest graduate students and researchers interested in the evolution of the flora of this fascinating continent.

Book excerpt: Investigations about porosity in petroleum reservoir rocks are discussed by Schmoker and Gautier. Pollastro discusses the uses of clay minerals as exploration tools that help to elucidate basin, source-rock, and reservoir history. The status of fission-track analysis, which is useful for determining the thermal and depositional history of deeply buried sedimentary rocks, is outlined by Naeser. The various ways workers have attempted to determine accurate ancient and present-day subsurface temperatures are summarized with numerous references by Barker. Clayton covers three topics: (1) the role of kinetic modeling in petroleum exploration, (2) biological markers as an indicator of depositional environment of source rocks and composition of crude oils, and (3) geochemistry of sulfur in source rocks and petroleum. Anders and Hite evaluate the current status of evaporite deposits as a source for crude oil.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Oil and gas discoveries in Australia's offshore basins are concentrated on the North West Shelf (Northern Carnarvon, Browse and Bonaparte basins) and Bass Strait (Gippsland, Otway and Bass basins). While discoveries have been made in a few regions outside these areas (e.g. Perth Basin), a large proportion of Australia's offshore basins remain exploration frontiers. However, the decline in oil production from the North West Shelf and Bass Strait basins since 2000 has led to an increasing exploration interest in the frontier basins. In order to improve our knowledge of the offshore frontiers and encourage exploration to these areas, from 2003-2011, Geoscience Australia was funded by the Australian Government to undertake a series of pre-competitive data acquisition and analyses programs in frontier basins around the Australian margin. This Record presents a comprehensive inventory of the geology, petroleum systems, exploration status and data coverage for 35 frontier basins, sub-basins and provinces, that draws on the results of those pre-competitive data programs, as well as exploration results and the geoscience literature. The Record also provides an assessment of the critical science and exploration questions and issues for each area. The results of each basin assessment are summarised in a prospectivity ranking. The availability of data and level of knowledge in each area is reflected in a confidence rating for that ranking. While the prospectivity of some areas is widely acknowledged to be high (e.g. Ceduna Sub-basin), the perception of prospectivity in many basins is negatively affected by the amount or quality of data available; in these basins, the acquisition of new data or targeted research could make a significant difference to the understanding of petroleum potential and likelihood of success. Therefore, recommendations for future work that could assist in addressing key knowledge or data gaps are included in each basin assessment." -- Online abstract.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As part of the Offshore Energy Security Program (2007-2011), Geoscience Australia (GA) undertook an integrated regional study of the deepwater Otway and Sorell basins to improve the understanding of the geology and petroleum prospectivity of the region. Major outputs of this study include: - New interpretations of basement architecture and structural fabric resulting in the recognition of the Avoca-Sorell Fault System as a major control on sedimentary basin development, - Extension of the tectonostratigraphic framework of Krassay et. al. (2004) into the deepwater Otway and Sorell basins, leading to new insights into their structural and accommodation histories of both basins, and - Petroleum systems modelling indicating that these basins are mature for oil and gas generation."--Online abstract.
