Hydrocarbon Prospectivity of the Offshore South Perth Basin

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

From 9 July to 4 August and 15 September to 14 October 1988, the BMRresearch vessel Rig Seismic conducted two cruises in the region of theSouth Perth Basin (Plate 1). The aims and objectives of the cruise were: (1) to develop an updated structural and stratigraphic frameworkfor the Perth Basin. (2) to collect a regional seismic grid to tie industry wells andprevious seismic surveys, in order to produce a comprehensiveassessment of the hydrocarbon potential of the South PerthBasin. (3) sample the continental slope for stratigraphic control, sourcerock potential and palaeoceanography. (4) develop models of basin evolution, particularly for small,deep sub-basins (e.g. Vlaming Sub-basin).
