Abstract
<div>This study aims to understand both the burial and thermal history of the Carrara Sub-basin to further develop an understanding of possible geo-energy resources, particularly that for unconventional resources such as shale gas. A 1D and 2D model were developed using data from the above mentioned seismic and drilling campaigns, combined with previously published knowledge of the basin. This work contributes to Australia’s Future Energy Resources (AFER) Project, specifically the Onshore Basin Inventories study, which aims to promote exploration and investment in selected underexplored onshore basins. Inventory reports and petroleum systems modelling are being undertaken in select basins to highlight the oil and gas potential in underexplored provinces and to increase the impact of existing datasets.</div><div><br></div>

Purpose
The purpose of this product contributes to the Exploring for the Future program, providing precompetitive information to inform decision-making by government, community and industry on the sustainable development of Australia's mineral, energy and groundwater resources. By gathering, analysing and interpreting new and existing precompetitive geoscience data and knowledge, we are building a national picture of Australia’s geology and resource potential. This leads to a strong economy, resilient society and sustainable environment for the benefit of all Australians. This includes supporting Australia’s transition to a low emissions economy, strong resources and agriculture sectors, and economic opportunities and social benefits for Australia’s regional and remote communities.
