Abstract
Several seismic surveys were made by the Bureau of Mineral Resources, Delhi Australian Petroleum Ltd, -Phillips Petroleum Company, and L. H. Smart Oil Exploration Company Ltd during the period from 1959 to 1963 between Eula and the Queensland/South Australia border area of the Eromanga Basin. This report covers the seismic work done by the Bureau of Mineral Resources in 1962 and 1963 and also incorporates the results of the work done by the private oil exploration companies. It aims at providing information on the nature and structure of the rocks underlying the Mesozoic sediments of the Eromanga Basin. The seismic results have been interpreted with reference to the geology as known from the Delhi-Santos Orientos No. 1 and Dullingari No.1 wells near the Queensland/South Australia border and the Smart Oil Orient No. 2 well on the Grey Range.

Lineage
During the latter half of 1962, the No. 1 Seismic Party of the Bureau of Mineral Resources, Geology and - Geophysics (BMR) commenced a reconnaissance survey, using both reflection and refraction seismic techniques, between St George and the Queensland/South Australia border. The programme was not completed in 1962, and it was decided to complete the reflection and refraction work near the Grey Range during 1963, in addition to investigating gravity anomalies in the area. The survey was completed in October and November 1963.
