The Major Carbon Dioxide Emitters of Australia is a combination of a two digital datasets 'source_top50' and 'min_source' from within the publication: Bradshaw, J., Bradshaw, B., Spencer, L., Wilson, P., Simon, G. & Mackie, V. 2001. GEODISC Project 1 - Regional analysis, stage 3 basins and emissions mapping, Geoscience Australia, GEODISC1-2001-006 (CD). The top 139 CO2 emitters as of 1998 are included, representing ~43% of net national GHG emissions and 54% of the net energy emissions from the 1998 National Greenhouse Gas Inventory. Each emitter has information containing the following attributes; Facility, Facil_Type, Facil_Name, State, Emissions, Emissions1, Emissions2, Emissions3, 20Yrs_Mt, 20Yrs_Tcf, DataSource, DataYear.

Petroleum Exploration and Development Titles: Key to Accompany the Map Showing the Petroleum Titles in Australia in Force at 1 April 2000

Chiefly charts and maps, includes explanatory notes

The annual Good Oil conference is a valuable evnue for the promtion of the open acreage for offshore petroleum exploration and the showcasing of GA's innovative work in petroleum geoscience.

Promotional flyer comprising map showing petroleum exploration permits and current and proposed gazettal areas for acreage release. map is supplemented by short information (text) about geological aspects of release areas and summeries of Austrlaia's oil and gas production levels.

In 2021, a total of 21 areas were released for offshore petroleum exploration. They are located in the Bonaparte Basin, Browse Basin, Northern Carnarvon Basin, Otway Basin, Sorell Basin and Gippsland Basin. Despite COVID-19 negatively impacting the industry, participation in the acreage release nomination process was again robust, however, as has been the case in recent years, industry interest is focussed on those areas that are close to existing discoveries and related infrastructure. In tune with the Australian government’s resource development strategy, the areas being offered for exploration are likely to supply extra volumes of natural gas, both for export to SE Asian markets and domestically to meet the forecasted shortage in eastern Australia. According to the 2019 implementation of a modified release process, only one period for work program bidding has been scheduled. The closing date for all submissions is Thursday, 3 March 2022. Geoscience Australia continues to support industry activities by acquiring, interpreting and integrating pre-competitive datasets that are made freely available in the context of the agency’s regional petroleum geological studies. As part of a multidisciplinary study, new data, including regional seismic and petroleum systems modelling for the Otway Basin is now available. Also, a stratigraphic/sedimentological review of the upper Permian to Early Triassic succession in the southern Bonaparte Basin has been completed, the results of which are being presented at this APPEA conference. Large seismic and well data sets, submitted under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006 (OPGSSA) are made available through the National Offshore Petroleum Information Management System (NOPIMS). Additional data and petroleum related information can be accessed through Geoscience Australia’s data repository. Appeared in The APPEA Journal 61(2) 294-324, 2 July 2021
