Galilee Upper Permian coal measures gas contents from WCR

Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement.

The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

Dry Ash Free Gas content and gas isotope data from drill core samples from various geological units were for the Galilee subregion. The geological units are the Upper Permian coal measures, Aramac Coal Measures of the Galilee Basin, and the Winton Formation which is a part of the Eromanga Basin. The gas content data was utilised to show the distribution of gas in the Upper Permian coal measures and to look at variation in gas contents with depth below surface. The gas isotope data provides an indication for the source of the gas.

Dataset History

Dry ash free gas contents and gas isotope data from coal seam samples were compiled by the Galilee BA team from well completion reports held in the QDNRM database.
