Perth Basin Petroleum System Name of Student Course Code & Title Introduction Perth Basin • A sedimentary basin on the west Australian continental margin. Source: Geoscience Australia • The basin has an area of about 172,300 km^2 and extends the margin about 1,300 km long. The Perth Basin • The basin produces oil and gas from conventional reservoirs. • Thus, the basin is distributed with petroleum exploration wells, oil, and gas fields. • A petroleum industry infrastructure is situated close to the producing region of the basin. Source: Department of Mines and Petroleum The Perth Basin • In 2014, the basin had produced 0ver 1,155 barrels of oil, 104,324 barrels of condensate, and 7.335 billion cubic feet of gas (Society of Exploration Geophysicists, 2015). • The petroleum system analysis of the Perth Basin revealed that the latter has abundant reservoirs, widespread mature source rocks, and well-timed structures for hydrocarbon entrapment. • This presents the good geology of the basin for oil and gas production. Results Oil and Gas Fields • Basically, the Perth Basin has different subdivisions: • Houtman, Abrolhos, Vlaming, Zeewyck, and Coolcalalaya Sub-basins • Bunbury, Dandaragan, Coomallo, and Beermulah troughs • Terraces, shelves, and ridges • The basin also has 32 offshore and more than 200 onshore initially discovered wells (Geoscience Australia). Onshore 6 gas fields 4 oil fields 2 oil and gas fields Offshore Oil field – Be ...
