Seabed exposure and ecological disturbance on Australia's continental shelf:...
Disturbances characterise many natural environments - on land, a forest fire that removes a patch of old-growth trees is an example. The trees that first colonise the vacant... -
Geochemical characteristics of hydrocarbon families and petroleum systems,...
The Vulcan Sub-basin has been actively explored for over twenty years, with oil production from the Jabiru and Challis-Cassini fields, and the depleted Skua Field, all of which... -

This Record presents a new stratigraphic interpretation of Cretaceous sedimentary rocks encountered in petroleum exploration wells, stratigraphic holes and water bores along the... -
A Geochemical Overview of Some Gippsland Basin Hydrocarbon Accumulations
In the 50 years since the first commercial discovery in 1965 at Barracouta-1, and 46 years since production commenced from the Barracouta field, a total of 16.5 TCF of gas, 4026... -
Tsunami in Australia: challenging assumptions, building preparedness
University of Newcastle researchers captured media attention in 2017 with the release of a study modelling tsunami risk for the city of Sydney. The study considered a range of... -

The Early Cretaceous non-marine volcaniclastic Eumeralla Formation accumulated in a rift basin on the southern margin of Australia during the break-up of eastern Gondwana.... -
Palaeogeographic reconstructions: Revealing the lithological variability of...
The Early Cretaceous Gage Sandstone and South Perth Shale are a prospective reservoir-seal pair in the Vlaming Sub-basin. Plays include post-breakup pinch-outs of the Gage... -
The Variability in Formation Water Composition and its Implications for CO2...
Regional geological properties of sedimentary basins play a significant role in determining the safety of CO2 storage. Four major trapping mechanism have been identified:... -
Tectonic and sedimentary history of the Argo Abyssal Plain, eastern Indian Ocean
Bathymetric and seismic reflection profiles totalling about 2800 km, and covering about 110 000 km2 of the Argo Abyssal plain, have been analysed. The early emplacement of... -

Redefining the petroleum systems of the Browse Basin
The Browse Basin lies offshore from the remote Western Australia Kimberley region and hosts vast reserves of gas, some of which are rich in condensate, making it Australia's... -
The geology of the Sau River and environs, New Guinea
An area of approximately 800 square miles in the Western Highlands of New Guinea was mapped during a reconnaissance geological survey in 1959. Non-metamorphic Jurassic fine-... -
Pattern of slow seafloor spreading (<4 mm/year) from breakup (96 Ma) to A20...
Australia separated from Antarctica by continental extension between the mid-Jurassic (>160 Ma) and mid-Cretaceous (96 Ma), then by slow seafloor spreading (half-rate <... -
