Australian National Passive Seismic Data Collection

This is a collection of continuous seismic records gathered by temporal and semi-permanent seismic deployments where real-time data transmission was not available. Time spans vary from half an hour to more than a year depending on the purpose of the survey. Description of the employed instrumentation and array constellations can be found in the accompanied material. 
Value: Passive seismic data contains records of soil vibration due to the natural earth movements, ocean, weather, and anthropogenic activities. This data is used in ongoing research to infer national lithospheric structure from depth of a few meters to a hundred kilometres. Derived models are an important source of information for assessment of resource potential and natural hazard. 
Scope: Over time, surveys have been focused on areas of economic interest, current work of the Australian Passive Seismic Array Project (AusArray) is seeking to create a grid pattern, spaced ~55 km apart, and complemented by semi-permanent higher sensitivity broadband seismic stations.

Feasibility of underground hydrogen storage with salt caverns in the offshore Polda Basin, South Australia

Geoscience Australia has conducted a feasibility analysis on underground gas/hydrogen storage (UGS/UHS) through creating salt caverns in the offshore Polda Basin, South Australia. The Mercury structure in the offshore part of the Polda Basin has massive halite deposits in the Neoproterozoic Kilroo Formation at depth intervals of 1376.8–2383.8 mSS (mSS: depth (m) below mean sea level) (salt pillows), 2383.8–2538.8 mSS and 2807.8–3083.8 mSS (salt interbeds). The halite is distributed over 217 km2 approximately 20 km N–S and approximately 20 km E–W, forming an anticlinal structure near the Mercury 1 well. Well data (Mercury 1) suggests the total net thickness of halite is up to 1000 m over the lower Kilroo Formation and 468 m above 2000 mSS, which is within the depth range considered suitable for UHS. The potential storage site analysed is located approximately 50–70 km offshore, west of the Eyre Peninsula and approximately 200 km from Port Lincoln. 
The lower thermal gradient (cold basin) observed, and overburden and formation fracture gradients, are favourable for salt cavern design. The 1376.8–1539.8 mSS and 1575.6–2367.6 mSS halite intervals in Mercury 1 were identified as potential candidates for cavern creation in the future UHS program. 
A conceptual design of a halite cavern is presented for the depth range of 1650–2000 mSS. The cylindrical halite cavern is evaluated for two diameters (60 m and 100 m) with the calculated hydrogen storage capacity of approximately 240 GWh and 665 GWh (equivalent to approximately 7200 and 20000 tonnes), respectively. Potentially multiple halite caverns could be built within the thick halite deposits of the Mercury structure. Compared to one of Australia’s non-hydrocarbon energy storage resources currently under construction (Snowy 2.0 hydropower) at 350 GWh, UHS within a halite cavern in the offshore Polda Basin provides an alternative for large-scale energy storage that is potentially quicker to build, has less environmental footprints and is not impacted by drought.
The well logs of Mercury 1 have been digitised by Geoscience Australia and are included in the files available for download

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sg57-11)

AUSGeoid98 data files contain a 2 minute grid of AUSGeoid98 data covering the Australian region, which you can use to interpolate geoid-ellipsoid separations for the positions required.You can use your own interpolation software, or you can use Geoscience Australia's Windows Interpolation software (Winter). The data files are text files in a standard format that cover the same area as standard topographic map areas. Files covering both 1:250,000 (approximately 100 x 150 km) and 1:1,000,000 (approximately 400 x 600 km) map areas are available. There is a 4 minute overlap on all sides of each area. Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places. AUSGeoid98 deflections of the vertical were computed from the geoid-ellipsoid separation surface, while the AUSGeoid93 deflections of the vertical were computed from OSU91A.
