Precompetitive geoscience information to support the Australian ocean energy sector bringing seabed data to the surface

Australia’s vast ocean estate offers significant potential for the emerging ocean energy industry. Capitalising on this opportunity is critical to achieving Australia’s net zero targets. Yet, Australia’s oceans remain largely unexplored, with <10% of the continental shelf mapped in sufficient detail to inform government and industry decisions.&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;
Pre-competitive geoscience information is a critical input to support the ocean energy sector. This includes seabed mapping information such as bathymetry compilations and seabed geomorphology maps. These integrated, multidisciplinary datasets increase our understanding of Australia’s seabed at regional and national scales, with wide-ranging applications and benefits across multiple ocean sectors.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Pre-competitive geoscience information is used to inform more targeted surveying and identify areas suitable for offshore infrastructure, reducing investment risk. It also provides important regional context for environmental impact assessments and informs evidence-based decisions consistent with government policies and regulations.&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;
Australia’s seabed mapping data is limited in extent, fragmented, difficult to access, and held in various formats across different organisations. Geoscience Australia, in collaboration with the Australian Hydrographic Office, James Cook University, and the University of Sydney, is creating a series of bathymetry compilations, including in the Bass Strait region. These high-quality datasets bring together disparate data to create seamless surfaces and provide a complete three-dimensional picture of the seafloor.&nbsp;Individual survey datasets and bathymetry compilations are available through the AusSeabed Marine Data Portal.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;
Interpretation of these bathymetry compilations and complementary datasets to produce seabed geomorphology maps provides further insights into seabed features and processes such as sediment dynamics and seabed stability. Applying a nationally consistent approach, these geomorphology maps provide baseline data to effectively evaluate, monitor, and manage environmental impacts from ocean energy developments.&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;
This robust scientific information enables government and industry to sustainably manage Australia’s oceans, drive growth of Australia’s ocean economy, and protect our marine environment.

Wiso Basin trav02, NT, 2000 (P1015), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled

The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
 This Wiso Basin trav02, NT, 2000 (P1015), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled were acquired in 2000 by the NT Government, and consisted of 113520 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.

Modelling CO2 EOR-storage in Residual Oil Zones

Geoscience Australia and CSIRO have collaborated, under the Exploring for the Future program, to investigate whether water-saturated residual oil zones (ROZs), sometimes associated with conventional Australian hydrocarbon plays, could provide a CO2 storage resource and enhance the storage capacity of depleted fields. This product is part of a larger project that includes, among others, a petrophysical study to identify and characterise ROZs. 
In this report, we model the formation of a residual oil zone in an Australian setting and the subsequent injection of CO2 using a 5 spot well pattern. The reservoir is built as an archetype example of the Hutton Formation from the Cooper-Eromanga basin. The reservoir interval is populated with "permeable sandstone” and “impermeable baffle” facies and a sealing layer at the top of the model is created and assigned properties such that it can be made to leak oil by capillary failure, as part of the process used to create a residual oil column. The static model is them imported into CMG-GEM software for the reservoir flow simulations.&nbsp;We find the scenario, with injectors perforated at the top and a central producing well perforated at the bottom, able to both store the most CO2 and produce the most oil. The storage and sweep efficiencies are high, highlighting the difference with typical CO2 storage scenarios without pressure mitigation.

The Newcastle, New South Wales, earthquake of 28 December 1989

An earthquake occurred without warning at 10:27 am on 28 December 1989 (local time) causing loss of life in the city of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, the first earthquake to cause fatalities in Australia since European settlement.  The magnitude is estimated to have been 5.6 on the Richter scale. Earthquakes of this size occur on average about once every eighteen months in Australia. A single aftershock was recorded on a network of ten seismographs installed on 29 December in and around Newcastle; it had a magnitude of 2.1. The focal depth of the mainshock was 11.5Â±0.5 km and of the aftershock 13.5Â±0.8 km, which is beneath the Permian sediments of the Sydney Basin.  The epicentres of both earthquakes are coincident within the error bounds and are some 15 km from the centre of damage in the City.  The damage in Newcastle was made worse by an underlying thin layer of alluvium which magnified the ground motion substantially. A fault-plane solution indicates that the earthquake had a thrust mechanism with nodal planes striking in a NW-SE direction, parallel to the mapped surface faults in the region.  Limited strong motion data were recorded, but not close to the epicentre.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files: Angledool (sh55-07)

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.

Darwin Harbour Habitat Mapping Program: Predicted standard error for interpolated surface of Total Organic Carbon in sediments

This resource contains a predicted total organic carbon standard error grid for the greater Darwin Harbour region as part of a baseline seabed mapping program of Darwin Harbour and Bynoe Harbour. This project was funded through offset funds provided by an INPEX-led Ichthys LNG Project to the Northern Territory Government’s Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NTG-DENR) with co-investment from Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS). The intent of this program is to improve knowledge of the marine environments in the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour regions by collating and collecting baseline data that enable the creation of thematic habitat maps and information to underpin marine resource management decisions. The predicted total organic carbon standard error grid was derived from a compilation of multiple surveys undertaken by GA, AIMS and NTG-DENR between 2011 and 2017, including GA0333 (Siwabessy et al., 2015), GA0341 (Siwabessy et al., 2015), GA0351/SOL6187 (Siwabessy et al., 2016), GA4452/SOL6432 (Siwabessy et al., 2017), GA0356 (Radke et al., 2017), and GA0358 and GA0359 (Radke et al., 2018), adding to those from previous surveys GA4425 and GA0333 collected by GA, AIMS, NTG-DENR and Darwin Port Authority.

Paterson Central, WA, 2005 (P1092), magnetic line data, AWAGS levelled

Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
 These line dataset from the Paterson Central, WA, 2005 survey were acquired in 2005 by the WA Government, and consisted of 94391 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.
