Abstract:
There are three petroleum basins of differing character off the Victorian coast: the Otway, Bass and Gippsland basins. These formed during continental rifting between Australia, Antarctica and New Zealand, associated with the break up of Gondwana Marked variation in the development of these basins appears to have been largely controlled by the distribution of Proterozoic basement—the Selwyn Block—under central Victoria. Lying deep under central Victoria, this block surfaces towards the coast and continues southward as the Proterozoic crust of western Tasmania. The boundaries of this block are coincident with the boundaries separating the three basins. The Otway Basin in western Victoria represents a clean break between Australia and Antarctica. The Otway Basin has thick fill upon thinned continental crust with an outboard break to a continent-ocean boundary. The overall geometry here is a classic lower plate margin. This clean continental break-up failed to propagate eastward across the Proterozoic Selwyn Block. Instead, localised continental stretching resulted in some grabens and the overlying steers head sag of the Bass Basin. True continental separation was transferred southward to the margin of the Tasmania/Selwyn Block. The Gippsland Basin lies east of the Selwyn Block. Its development reflects initial southern margin rifting, but this was overtaken by orthogonal-oriented Tasman rifting. This left the Gippsland Basin with a complex interplay of north-south and east-west structures controlling the platforms, terraces and deeps.

Abstract:
The Australian Government formally releases new offshore exploration areas at the annual APPEA conference. In 2012, 27 areas in nine offshore basins are being released for work program bidding. Closing dates for bid submissions are either six or twelve months after the release date, i.e. 8 November 2012 or 9 May 2013, depending on the exploration status in these areas and on data availability. As was the case in 2011, this year’s Release again covers a total offshore area of about 200,000 km2. The Release Areas are located in Commonwealth waters offshore Northern Territory, Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania (Fig. 1). Areas on the North West Shelf feature prominently again and include under-explored shallow water areas in the Arafura and Money Shoal basins and rank frontier deep water areas in the outer Browse and Roebuck basins as well as on the outer Exmouth Plateau. Following the recent uptake of exploration permits in the Bight Basin (Ceduna and Duntroon sub-basins), Australia’s southern margin is well represented in the 2012 Acreage Release. Three new areas in the Ceduna Sub-basin, four areas in the Otway Basin, one large area in the Sorell Basin and two areas in the eastern Gippsland Basin are on offer. Multiple industry nominations for this Acreage Release were received, confirming the healthy status of exploration activity in Australia. The Australian government continues to support these activities by providing free access to a wealth of geological and geophysical data.

Full text
Abstract:
The Otway Basin is one of the best known and most actively explored of a series of Mesozoic basins formed along the southern coastline of Australia by the rifting of the Antarctic and Australian plates during the Cretaceous. The basin offers a diversity of play types, with at least three major sedimentary sequences forming conventional targets for petroleum exploration in the onshore basin. The Penola Trough in South Australia has enjoyed over 20 years of commercial hydrocarbon production from the sandstones of the Early Cretaceous Otway Group comprising the Crayfish Subgroup (Pretty Hill Formation and Katnook sandstones) and Eumeralla Formation (Windermere Sandstone Member). Lithostratigraphic characterisation and nomenclature for these sequences are poorly constrained, challenging correlation across the border into the potentially petroleum prospective Victorian Penola Trough region. The Geological Survey of Victoria (GSV), as part of the Victorian Gas Program, commissioned Chemostrat Australia to undertake an 11-well chemostratigraphic study of the Victorian Otway Basin. The South Australia Department for Energy and Mining, GSV and Chemostrat Australia are working collaboratively to develop a consistent, basin-wide schema for the stratigraphic nomenclature of the Otway Basin within a chemostratigraphic framework. Variability in the mineralogy and hence inorganic geochemistry of sediments reflects changes in provenance, lithic composition, facies changes, weathering and diagenesis. This geochemical variation enables the differentiation of apparently uniform sedimentary successions into unique sequences and packages, aiding in the resolution of complex structural relationships and facies changes. In this paper, we present the preliminary results of detailed geochemical analyses and interpretation of 15 wells from across the Otway Basin and the potential impacts on hydrocarbon prospectivity.

Abstract:
BHP Petroleum practice is to undertake a comprehensive environmental management program for exploration activities in environmentally sensitive areas. The planning for the exploration program in the Otway and Duntroon Basins is presented as a case study.BHP Petroleum's exploration activities in the Otway Basin, offshore Victoria, have been the subject of community debate as a result of the perceived effects on sensitive environmental values. The environmental management program undertaken for this exploration project included:a community consultation and information program;development of a geographic information system (GIS) recording a range of environmental and logistical (spill response) information;a whale research program; andformulation and implementation of an environmental management plan.This program and the issues it is designed to address has been an education for the Company, the community and government agencies.

Abstract:
Last year the petroleum industry witnessed the enactment of new legislation both at Commonwealth and State levels. The principal legislative change to environmental management was the introduction of the Commonwealth Government’s Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Act, 2000 (EPBC Act). South Australia and Victoria also implemented new Petroleum Acts and/ or Regulations.Construction of the Eastern Gas Pipeline was also completed last year, whilst preliminary approvals and environmental assessment continues for the Papua New Guinea, Timor Sea and Tasmania Natural Gas pipelines. Offshore exploration continued, particularly in the North West Shelf, Otway Basin, Timor Sea and Bass Strait.Other critical areas of environmental management included greenhouse gases, national pollution inventory reporting and the increasing requirements for environmental approval and management under various state environmental legislation.This paper provides an overview of environmental developments in the petroleum industry during the year 2000, in particular, the implication of new legislation, new technology, e-commerce and a greater focus on environmental reporting.

Abstract:
The Australian Government formally releases new offshore exploration areas at the annual APPEA conference. This year, 31 areas plus two special areas in five offshore basins are being released for work program bidding. Closing dates for bid submissions are either six or twelve months after the release date (i.e. 3 December 2009 and 29 April 2010), depending on the exploration status in these areas is and on data availability. The 2009 release areas are located in Commonwealth waters offshore Northern Territory, Western Australia, South Australia and Victoria, comprising intensively explored areas close to existing production as well as new frontiers. As usual, the North West Shelf features very prominently and is complimented by new areas along the southern margin, including frontier exploration areas in the Ceduna Sub-basin (Bight Basin) and the Otway Basin. The Bonaparte Basin is represented by one release area in the Malita Graben, while five areas are available in the Southern Browse Basin in an under-explored area of the basin. A total of 14 areas are being released in the Carnarvon Basin, with eight areas located in the Dampier Sub-basin, three small blocks in the Rankin Platform and three large blocks on the Northern Exmouth Plateau (these are considered a deep water frontier). In the south, six large areas are on offer in the Ceduna Sub-basin and five areas of varying sizes are being released in the Otway Basin, including a deep water frontier offshore Victoria. The special release areas are located in the Petrel Sub-basin, Bonaparte Basin offshore Northern Territory, and encompass the Turtle/Barnett oil discoveries. The 2009 offshore acreage release offers a wide variety of block sizes in shallow as well as deep water environments. Area selection has been undertaken in consultation with industry, the states and Territory. This year’s acreage release caters for the whole gamut of exploration companies given that many areas are close to existing infrastructure while others are located in frontier offshore regions. As part of Geoscience Australia’s Offshore Energy Security Program, new data has been acquired in offshore frontier regions and have yielded encouraging insights into the hydrocarbon prospectivity of the Ceduna-Sub-basin.

Full text
Abstract:
Record-high oil prices along with on-going development of infrastructure, increasing domestic demand and international LNG sales continued to drive significant investment in exploration in onshore and offshore Australia during 2007. These trends are reflected nationally by strong uptake of acreage and continued high levels of drilling activity and seismic acquisition. Overall, drilling and discovery trends were similar to 2006 which showed significant exploration activity focussed on proven hydrocarbon basins (Carnarvon, Browse, Perth and Cooper basins). Most petroleum discoveries made in 2007 were located within 10 to 15 km of existing fields. In terms of number of exploration wells, the offshore Carnarvon continued to dominate with over 20 new field wildcats drilled. Discoveries include a major deep-water gas find for BHP-Billiton at Thebe-1 on the outer Exmouth Plateau, Apache’s gas finds at Brunello–1, Julimar–1 and Julimar East–1, oil for Santos at Fletcher–1 and gas at Lady Nora–1 for Woodside. The Browse Basin saw a significant increase in drilling activity with some success. Exploration in the offshore southwest margin received a major boost with a series of shallow-water discoveries for ROC Oil in the Perth Basin with gas at Frankland–1 395and Perseverance–1 and gas and oil at Dunsborough–1. Onshore, the Cooper/Eromanga basins continued to experience the highest level of drilling activity and seismic acquisition. This activity resulted in numerous small to moderate oil discoveries for Santos, Beach Petroleum, Eagle Bay Resources, Stuart Petroleum and Victoria Petroleum. There were a few notable exceptions to near-field exploration in 2007 with several wildcats drilled in frontier regions including PetroHunter Energy and Sweetpea Petroleum’s Shanendoah–1 in the Georgina/Betaloo basins, Austin’s Gravestock–1 in the onshore Stansbury Basin and the onshore drilling campaign by ARC Energy in the Canning Basin. In Queensland, CSM exploration and discovery continued to experience strong positive growth underpinned by delivery to local markets.

Griffiths, J. "UNITISATION OF PETROLEUM FIELDS UNDER THE PSLA." APPEA Journal 41, no. 2 (2001): 90. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/aj00057.

Full text
Abstract:
Unitisation is a commercial agreement between the titleholders of a shared petroleum pool that extends across two (or more) title boundaries.In 1998, a working group involving government and industry representatives was formed, with the intent of drafting a guideline on unitisation. However, work on the guideline was put on hold until after resolution of the Perseus Athena unitisation issue. During the intervening period, a number of new unitisation cases have arisen and a further number are on the horizon.A workshop was held in Perth on 22 February 2001 to canvass opinions and options on unitisation. Around 30 representatives from government (Commonwealth, Western Australia, Victoria, Northern Territory and the Timor Gap Joint Authority) and industry (APPEA, Agip, Apache, BHP, ExxonMobil, MIMI, Phillips, Santos, Shell and Woodside) attended and contributed to the Workshop.There is general agreement among industry and government representatives that there is a range of unitisation issues under the Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act 1967 (PSLA) that need to be clarified. In response, the Commonwealth is examining those parts of the Act that deal with property rights with respect to shared pools and when government should direct unitisation. This could lead to changes to the PSLA depending on consultations with interested parties on these matters.The aim of this paper is to canvas a number of options with regards to property rights and government direction. These options could also help resolve a range of other issues relating to unitisation, including information sharing and secondary taxation of unitised fields.

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of the work reported in this thesis was to design and implement an ecological effects environmental monitoring program which would: 1) Collect baseline biological information on sessile epibiotic fouling communities from an area adjacent to a petroleum refinery located on Corio Bay, Victoria, to allow comparison with results of future monitoring for the assessment of long term temporal water quality trends. 2) Detect and — if possible - estimate the magnitude of any influence on epibiotic fouling communities within the Corio Bay marine ecosystem attributable to operations at the Shell Petroleum Refinery. 3) Investigate the extent of thermal stratification and rate of dispersal of the petroleum refinery main cooling-water outfall plume (discharging up to 350,000 tonnes of warmed seawater per day), and its effect on epibiotic communities within the EPA-defined mixing zone. A major component of the work undertaken was the design and development of artificial-substrate biological sampling stations suitable for use under the conditions prevailing in Corio Bay, and the development of appropriate quantitative underwater photographic sampling techniques to fulfil the experimental criteria outlined above. Experimental and other constraints imposed on the design of the stations precluded the simple suspension of frames from jetties or pylons, a technique widely used in previous work of this type. Artificial substrate panels were deployed along three radial transects centred within and extending beyond the petroleum refinery main cooling-water mixing zone. Identical substrate panels were deployed at a number of control sites located throughout Corio Bay, each chosen for differences in their degree of exposure to such factors as water movement, depth, shipping traffic and/or comparable industrial activity. The rate of colonisation (space utilisation) and the development of epibiotic fouling communities on artificial substrate panels was monitored over two twelve-month sampling periods using quantitative underwater photographic sampling techniques. Sampling was conducted at 4-8 week intervals with the rate of panel colonisation and community structure determined via coverage measurements. Various species of marine algae, polychaete tubeworms, hydroids, barnacles, simple and colonial ascidians, sponges, bivalve molluscs and encrusting bryozoans were all detected growing on panels. Communities which established on panels within the cooling-water mixing-zone and those at control sites were compared using statistical procedures including agglomerative hierarchical cluster analysis. A photographic sample archive has been established to allow comparison with similar future studies.

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:
This thesis examines how the balancing of economics, the market, individual participation and the environment is difficult in terms of trying to achieve emancipatory outcomes for all. There is no definite resolution, and none was expected for a topic such as this, as the outcomes are all compromises, but with possibilities for action through a pragmatic political system. Emancipation must be worked for in order to be reached and maintained via this pragmatism, with the hardest outcomes being that for the environment and participation by individuals. What is resolved, though, is that market liberalisation and strict regulation are not equitable solutions for the State to follow.

Abstract:
During the first half of the twentieth century, a lack of oil constrained Britain and Germany from exerting their economic and military power independently. Having fought World War I with oil imported from the United States, Britain was determined to avoid relying upon another great power for its energy needs ever again. Even before the war had ended, Whitehall began implementing a strategy of developing alternative sources of oil under British control. Britain’s key supplier would be the Middle East—already a region of vital importance to the British Empire, but one whose oil potential was still unproven. There turned out to be plenty of oil in the Middle East, but Italian hostility after 1935 threatened British transit through the Mediterranean. As war loomed in 1939, Britain’s quest for independence from the United States was a failure. Germany was in an even worse position than Britain. The Third Reich went to war dependent on petroleum synthesized from coal, meager domestic crude oil production, and overland imports—primarily from Romania. German leaders were confident, however, that they had sufficient oil to fight a series of short, localized campaigns that would deliver to them the mastery of Europe. Their plan derailed following Germany’s swift victory over France, when Britain refused to make peace. This left Germany responsible for satisfying Europe’s oil requirements while cut off from world markets. A looming energy crisis in Axis Europe, an absence of strategic alternatives, and ideological imperatives all compelled Germany to invade the Soviet Union in 1941—a decision that ultimately sealed its fate.

Abstract:
This chapter offers a reassessment of Germany’s oil strategy during World War II. Fuel consumption during Germany’s early campaigns (1939–40) was lower than expected, but the swift victory over France left the Third Reich in a quandary. Before the war, Europe had imported two-thirds of its petroleum consumption. Germany’s prewar efforts had only aimed to make it self-sufficient—the Third Reich could not hope, however, to replace the supplies other European nations had imported from overseas. German planners concluded that unless Germany took control of the oil resources of either the Soviet Union or the Middle East, fuel shortages would soon derail the entire war effort. This looming energy crisis in Europe strengthened Hitler’s ideological and strategic conviction that Germany should risk a two-front war in 1941 by attacking the Soviet Union before the United States could intervene.

Abstract:
A marketer should follow the maxim of the 4th century BC strategist Sun-zi, who said “Know self, know opponents, hundred battles, hundred victories.” We are the chemical processing industries (CPI), which is a collection of firms that manufacture and sell a range of products that involve chemistry and employ many chemical engineers. The buyers are consumers, businesses, governments, and foreigners. When we consider selling a product to a buyer, we pay particular attention to profitable and growing markets where our product has a relative advantage over competition. It takes a bold pioneer to introduce a new product that requires the creation of a new market. Let us study the sellers of chemical products, which are collectively called the CPI. These manufacturers are skilled in the use of chemical reactions and separations to make their products, and they employ many chemical engineers and chemists, often in highly responsible positions. Many of the firms in the CPI are also our suppliers of raw materials and intermediates, our customers for our products, and our competition in making and selling their products. The Statistical Abstract of the United States is published annually by the U.S. Census Bureau, which groups all the economic activities in the United States into 11 divisions by the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC). The manufacturing division is divided into 20 sections designated by two-digit numbers. The manufacturers that involve chemistry intensively are listed in table 9.1, by two 2-digit numbers, such as: 20 Food, 28 Chemicals, and 29 Petroleum Refining. The table lists the number of establishments, the number of employees and value of shipment in 1996. The SIC 28, “Chemical and Allied Products,” is the basic supplying industry to the other sectors. Table 9.1 also gives the subdivision of SIC 28 into three-digit subsectors, such as: 281 Industrial Inorganics, 283 Drugs, and 286 Industrial Organics. The subsectors of 281 and 286 form the core of the Chemical and Allied Products, as they provide raw material and intermediates for the rest of the subsectors, such as 282 Plastics and 287 Agricultural chemicals.

Full text
Abstract:
Oil industry, as well as all organizations, is facing challenges of a new paradigm: the incessant endeavors of continuous improvement. It is calling attention of all organizations that seek business sustainability. Improvement programs proliferate and aim to qualify the organization to gain new victories. However, how to implement continuous improvement in oil industry? Where should it begin? How to proceed? How to guarantee that the accomplished efforts will lead to positive results for the organization? Knowledge Management has been one of the main issues in several publications, and many authors affirm that knowledge is the key for organizations’ success. According to Garvin, organizations see their improvement plans fail because most of them have not learnt the basic lesson: to improve continuously, organizations need first to know how to learn. There is no improvement without learning. And a company that learns is not quickly built. It is necessary planning, perseverance, commitment and processes which accumulate results. Occidental managers, according to Nonaka, have difficulty to understand the symbolism of Japanese slogans as tools to create a learning atmosphere. The authors of this paper have developed a visual methodology, based on symbolism and key words, which is intended to make easier the assimilation of the concepts of knowledge management, more specifically, the concepts of Garvin, Nonaka and Takeuchi, for use and improvement of the capacity of an organization “learn how to learn”, seeking the construction of the necessary learning atmosphere.

The Geo-mapping for Energy and Minerals program addressed four questions related to the lower Paleozoic succession of the Arctic Islands that were identified as key deficiencies in regional geological knowledge: 1) geochemical and geological data were not fully digital or available; 2) there were gaps in information on petroleum systems; 3) there was no geological map for the northwestern part of Victoria Island; and 4) the geological history of the Pearya composite terrane on northern Ellesmere Island was unclear. These gaps were addressed by 1) the publication of 17 open files that make geological and geochemical data sets publicly available; 2) studies on source rock, thermal maturity, and oil-source correlation; 3) the production of a geological map for northwestern Victoria Island; and 4) a series of geological, geochemical, and geochronological studies that support a geological model in which the southeastern structural slice of Pearya was a fragment of ancient North America that rifted and returned, rather than a far-travelled continental fragment.
