Abstract:

ExxonMobil is proud to be a major conventional gas supplier into the Victorian market. The Gippsland Basin Joint Venture, which ExxonMobil operates on behalf of ourselves and BHP Billiton, currently supplies nearly 40% of east coast Australian domestic gas demand. It has produced almost two-thirds of oil and 30% of Australia’s gas production. Since natural gas was first produced from the Gippsland Basin in the late 1960s, the positive attributes of natural gas have been well recognised in Victoria. The use of gas has spread from cooking and heating in the home, to becoming an important source of energy to fuel manufacturing, industry and power generation. To facilitate the growing use of gas, we have seen new pipelines constructed to expand the reach of natural gas to new markets and to interconnect the major demand centres. As demand has grown, new supplies have also entered the market.

Abstract:

A subsurface sample from Heywood-10 borehole, Otway Basin, Victoria, has provided the first ostracod assemblage of Oligocene age from the Gellibrand Marl (Heytesbury Group). Previous Gellibrand Marl ostracod assemblages were Miocene. This Late Oligocene assemblage of 384 specimens includes 50 species and subspecies from 34 genera across 18 families; 24 taxa are placed in open nomenclature. Of the taxa discussed, several appear to be new species but with too few specimens for them to be described as such. The reciprocal of Simpson’s Diversity Index was applied to assist assemblage comparisons. The Gellibrand Marl assemblage is larger, contains more families, genera and taxa but is less diverse than a smaller assemblage from the Early Oligocene Narrawaturk Formation (Nirranda Group) at the same location, and more diverse than an assemblage from the Early Oligocene/Ruwarung Member, South Australia. There are notable differences in the dominant taxa present in each assemblage. In the Gellibrand Marl, Pontocyprididae predominate; in Narrawaturk Formation, Cytheruridae and Xestoliberididae are most abundant; and in the South Australian assemblage, Bairdiidae by far the most numerous. This Gellibrand Marl collection has the characteristics of an at least partly allocthanous assemblage, the habitat a well-oxygenated mid-shelf environment. No cold or deep-water taxa are present.

Abstract:

Throughout the Transantarctic Mountains, Early Jurassic silicic magmatism preceding the emplacement of the Ferrar flood-basalt province (Heimann et al. 1994) is documented by the increasing input of silicic ash into otherwise epiclastic, fluviolacustrine deposits of the Beacon Supergroup (see Elliot et al. 2017). Vertebrate biostratigraphy and radiometric analyses indicate a Sinemurian to Pliensbachian age span for silicic volcaniclastic deposits in the central Transantarctic Mountains (CTMs) (Elliot et al. 2017). For northern Victoria Land (NVL), radiometric geochronology and palynostratigraphy revealed that explosive silicic volcanism began with minor pulses during the early Sinemurian (c. 195 Ma) and reached a peak phase beginning in the middle Pliensbachian (c. 187 Ma) (Bomfleur et al. 2014). A basin-wide correlation of these widely separated age frameworks has so far been hampered by the scarcity of data on coeval deposits in southern Victoria Land (SVL). Here, we present new palynostratigraphic data from mixed epiclastic–volcaniclastic deposits in the Prince Albert Mountains that provide supporting evidence for the widespread synchronicity of silicic volcanic episodes preceding Ferrar magmatism.

Abstract:

This thesis consists of six published papers. The present-day stress tensor has been determined using petroleum well data in the Gippsland and Otway Basins in Southeast Australia (Papers 1 and 4) and the Cooper Basin in Central Australia (Paper 5). In the Gippsland Basin, the present-day stress regime is transitional between one of reverse and strike-slip faulting and the maximum horizontal stress (SHmax) is oriented ~139°N. The present-day stress regime in the Victorian sector of the Otway Basin is also transitional between one of reverse and strike-slip faulting and SHmax is oriented ~135°N. Horizontal stresses are lower in the South Australian sector of the Otway Basin where the stress regime is one of strike-slip faulting and SHmax is oriented ~124°N. The orientations of SHmax in Southeast Australia are consistent with focal mechanism solutions, neotectonic structures and modelling of plate-boundary forces (Paper 4). Closure pressures from mini-frac injection tests are commonly used to determine the minimum horizontal stress (Shmin) magnitude. However, in high stress basins such as the Cooper and Gippsland Basins, these pressures may not reliably yield Shmin (Papers 2 and 5). In the Cooper Basin, high closure pressures (>18 MPa/km) were observed in tests where pressure-declines indicated complex hydraulic fracture growth. Closure pressures in these injections are unlikely to be representative of Shmin. They are believed to reflect the normal stress incident on pre-existing planes of weakness that are exploited by hydraulic fluid during the mini-frac injection (Paper 5). Sub-horizontal fabrics that are open at the wellbore wall were observed on image logs in the Cooper and Gippsland Basins (Papers 2 and 5). This fabric is believed to be at least partially responsible for the complex growth of hydraulic fractures observed in the Cooper Basin. The occurrence of these sub-horizontal fabrics and knowledge of rock strength have been used to constrain the magnitudes of SHmax and Shmin independently of mini-frac injections in the Cooper and Gippsland Basins (Papers 2 and 5). The present-day stress tensor is often quoted as a single gradient at a sedimentary basinor petroleum field-scale. Image logs and mini-frac data from Central and Southeast Australia indicate significant stress differences between stratigraphic units (Papers 3 and 5). Finite element modelling of the stress distribution between interbedded sands and shales in the Gippsland Basin indicates that stress is ‘partitioned’ to ‘hard’ lithological units in high stress areas. This accounts for the observation that borehole breakout only occurs in hard, cemented sandstones in the Gippsland Basin (Paper 3). A generic ‘mechanical stratigraphy’ derived from knowledge of wellbore failure (from image logs), rock strength and rock properties in individual rock units in the Cooper Basin allows an approximation of the present-day stress-state to be made directly from image-logs for individual rock units prior to mini-frac injection (Paper 6). This is important for predicting and understanding hydraulic fracture growth and containment. When considered together, the papers comprising this thesis provide significant new data on the orientation and magnitude of present-day stresses in Central and Southeast Australia. They also provide insight into the tectonic origin of those stresses and their distribution within sedimentary basins. In particular the papers develop and use new methods for constraining the present-day stress in regions of high tectonic stress. They also discuss implications for problems in petroleum development including wellbore stability and hydraulic fracturing.

Abstract:

The Gippsland Basin of southeastern Australia is the most energy-rich basin of Australia producing petroleum, gas and brown coal. Three-quarters of the Basin lies offshore and the rest onshore. The basin was initiated as a rift valley, caused by the separation of the Australian continent from the Antarctic followed by a number of tectonic events throughout the basin history. Early Cretaceous sedimentary rocks form the basement, which is in turn covered with Late Cretaceous to Recent sediment of sand, clay, limestone, and brown coal seams. The total thickness of the in-filling sediments offshore attains up to 6000 m, but onshore is up to 1200 m. There are three main acquifer systems, the Hydrostratigraphic Units 2, 4, and 7, all of which are confined. The two lower aquifer systems, Units 4 and 7, contain high temperature groundwater. It is generally agreed that the hydrocarbons offshore have been derived from terrestrial matters including brown coal and ligneous clay offshore. In the present study, the author has developed a case that hydrocarbons offshore being derived not only from the offshore source but also from onshore brown coals and coaly matter and in this hydrocarbon forming processes, groundwater has played a significant role. The Central Deep, in particular, provides favourable conditions for hydrocarbon maturation. Throughout the basin history, the Central Deep has experienced the oil window temperatures. In supporting this hypothesis, geochemical studies on groundwater, brown coal, and hydrocarbons as well as hydrodynamics are presented.

Abstract:

Our understanding of the long-term climate variability in Australia is limited by the number of high-resolution climate reconstructions. High-resolution palaeoenvironmental studies in Australia spanning more than a millennium are required to identify regional coherency among records and to recognise the relationships between climate and environmental conditions. This research project aims to investigate the nature of decadal-centennial scale climate and hydroclimate variability in south-eastern Australia. A record of hydrological change is established for the past millennium at West Basin Lake, a maar lake located in western Victoria. Palaeoclimate variability is inferred from sedimentary diatom analysis and is used to reconstruct lake water salinity. These data are interpreted in conjunction with element concentration data. The record indicates that West Basin Lake underwent hydrological variability on a decadal-centennial timescale. The diatom record shows evidence of a more variable climate during 932-550 cal BP and less saline conditions from 500-100 cal BP. The record also identifies a multi-decadal period of increased salinity from 625-575 cal BP. This suggests a more variable climate during the past millennium than observed since European settlement. The record established from this study provides a regionally coherent palaeoclimate reconstruction of the last millennium for western Victoria, Australia.

Abstract:

This item is only available electronically.
There is a lack of extensive historical climate data in Australia, meaning high-resolution paleoclimate studies are essential for a more comprehensive understanding of natural climate variability. The majority of paleohydrology records in south-eastern Australia region are low resolution, millennial time-scale reconstructions, resulting in a lack of understanding of climate variability at shorter time-scales relevant to human life spans. Here, we attempt to validate the use of geochemical analysis of lake sediments from West Basin, Victoria, as a way to create a high resolution paleohydrology reconstruction. The isotopic composition of the lake water in West Basin is primarily controlled by the precipitation to evaporation ratio (P:E). Ostracod calcite and bulk inorganic carbonates (BIC) that form within the water column reflect these changes and thus are used as proxies of past changes in P:E. This reconstruction is supported by a 210Pb- and 240/230Pu-based chronology which estimates a sediment accumulation rate of 0.3 to 0.4 cm/year and a maximum age at 40 cm of 118 years. This enables the resulting oxygen and carbon profiles to be validated against instrumental records of annual rainfall and temperature. The oxygen profile exhibits good agreement with this climate record, with peaks in δ18O values often coinciding with periods of low annual rainfall. Based on this, the ostracod record was determined to be capable of recording reliable, high resolution changes in P:E. The BIC record, though less consistent, can produce a detailed profile where ostracods are unavailable. Studies of this kind are vital to improving the accuracy of proxy system models which allow for reconstructions to be extended further in the geological record. Such models would allow for contextual understanding of the severity of drought occurrences and the assessment of the possible impacts of human induced climate change.

Abstract:

This item is only available electronically.
A geophysical study utilising the method of magnetotellurics (MT) was carried out across southwestern Victoria, Australia, imaging the electrical resistivity structure of the lithosphere beneath the Delamerian and Lachlan Orogens. Broadband MT (0.001-1000 Hz) data were collected along a 160 km west-southwest to east-northeast transect adjacent to crustal seismic profiling. Phase tensor analyses from MT responses reveal a distinct change in electrical resistivity structure and continuation further southwards of the Glenelg and Grampians-Stavely geological zones defined by the Yarramyljup Fault, marking the western limit of exploration interest for the Stavely Copper Porphyries. The Stawell and Bendigo Zones also show change across the Moyston and Avoca faults, respectively. Results of 2D modelling reveal a more conductive lower crust (10-30 Ωm) and upper mantle beneath the Lachlan Orogen compared to the Delamerian Orogen. This significant resistivity gradient coincides with the Mortlake discontinuity and location of the Moyston fault. Broad-scale fluid alteration zones were observed through joint analysis with seismic profiling, leaving behind a signature of low-reflectivity, correlating to higher conductivities of the altered host rocks. Isotopic analysis of xenoliths from western Victoria reveal the lithospheric mantle has undergone discrete episodes of modal metasomatism. This may relate to near-surface Devonian granite intrusions constrained to the Lachlan Orogen where we attribute the mid to lower crustal conductivity anomaly (below the Stawell Zone) as fossil metasomatised ascent paths of these granitic melts. This conductivity enhancement may have served to overprint an already conductive lithosphere, enriched in hydrogen from subduction related processes during the Cambrian. A predominately reflective upper crust exhibits high resistivity owing to turbidite and metasedimentary rock sequences of the Lachlan Orogen, representative of low porosity and permeability. Conductive sediments of the Otway Basin have also been imaged down to 3 km depth southwest of Hamilton.
