Abstract
Between 2006 and 2011, Geoscience Australia has acquired deep crustal seismic reflection and magnetotelluric surveys as a major component of the Australian Government's Onshore Energy Security Program (OESP). All surveys have been conducted in collaboration with the relevant state or NT geological survey. The Seismic Acquisition and Processing Project provides precompetitive data for developing new geological frameworks for assessment of onshore hydrocarbon, geothermal and uranium resources. The Onshore Petroleum Project provides interpretation of the seismic data in frontier basins with petroleum potential and an assessment of the petroleum prospectivity of these basins. Seismic data can reveal basin and crustal architecture for potential hydrocarbons, image potential hot rocks (granites), and identify potential uranium deposit settings, such as craton margins and unconformities.
