Abstract

The Adavale Basin, in south-central Queensland, contains two dry gas accumulations, Gilmore and Log Creek, discovered in 1964 and 1965. The accumulations occupy fold-related traps in Middle Devonian clastic rocks of the Log Creek Formation and the Lissoy Sandstone. The basin's estimated initial recoverable reserves as at 31 December 1986 comprised 589 x 106 m3 (20.8 x 109 ft3) of sales gas, all in the Gilmore accumulation. The Gilmore gas accumulation was declared economic in August 1987, and gas production is expected to commence in early 1989. Production so far has comprised 10.4 x 106 m3 (366 x 106 ft3) of raw gas, used in the drilling of nearby extension wells.
