Wells Data and Samples Collection (OPGGSA Submission and GA Stratigraphic Drilling)  


Authors / CoAuthors

Owen, A.J.

Abstract

The collection is derived from the submission of data under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act (OPGGSA) and previous legislation. The Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act (and the Offshore Petroleum Act & OPGGSA) requires petroleum data to be submitted to the State Designated Authority (DA). These Acts also require the DA's to make copies of the data/samples available to the Commonwealth Minister through the Joint Authority. The collection also contains cores, cuttings, paper reports, logs and stratigraphic cores drilled by BMR and a limited collection of water bores and engineering cores from around Canberra.

Lineage

The collection of cores, cuttings, paper reports and logs is derived from the submission of data under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act and previous legislation. The Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act (and the Offshore Petroleum Act & OPGGSA) requires petroleum data to be submitted to the State Designated Authority. These Acts also require the DA's to make copies of the data/samples available to the Commonwealth Minister through the Joint Authority. The collection also contains stratigraphic cores drilled by BMR and a limited collection of water bores and engineering cores from around Canberra. Purpose: Data used by petroleum industry for exploration, Geoscience Australia for frontier petroleum programs and academia for research. Data requests form industry.Digital files are preserved on the NAS. Open file data held on CD and DVD have been iso imaged and these files are now on the Robotics Data Store. This now preserves data submitted on unstable media. Hard copy collections are currently being digitised and files catalogued for preservation on the NAS. Physical samples are preserved in the Repository in good condition. Key Clients: Industry, Government, Internal Geoscience Australia and Academic Research.
