Evaluating the Potential for Geological Hydrogen Storage in Australia

Australia has ambitions to become a major global hydrogen producer by 2030. The establishment of Australia’s and the world’s hydrogen economy, however, will depend upon the availability of affordable and reliable hydrogen storage. Geological hydrogen storage is a practical solution for large scale storage requirements ensuring hydrogen supply can always meet demand, and excess renewable electricity can be stored for later use, improving electricity network reliability. Hosting thick, underground halite (salt) deposits and an abundance of onshore depleted gas fields, Australia is well placed to take advantage of geological hydrogen storage options to support its ambition of hosting a global hydrogen hub export industry. Using the Bluecap modelling software, we identify regions in Australia that are potentially profitable for large scale hydrogen production and storage. We use the results of this work to suggest high-priority regions for hydrogen development, supporting policy maker and investor decisions on the locations of new infrastructure and hydrogen projects in Australia.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area C Bourke magnetic grid geodetic

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.
This GSNSW Exploration NSW Area C Bourke magnetic grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00048 degrees (approximately 50m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1995 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 93000 line-kilometres of data at 250m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area D Surat Basin potassium grid geodetic

This GSNSW Exploration NSW Area D Surat Basin potassium grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric potassium window countrate grid for the NSW DMR, Discovery 2000,1994-95, Area D, Surat Basin survey. 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 GSNSW Exploration NSW Area D Surat Basin potassium grid geodetic radiometric potassium window countrate grid has a cell size of 0.00072 degrees (approximately 75m). The data are in units of counts per second (cps).

Murray Basin Hydrogeological Project : progress report 15 for half year ending 31 March 1986

This progress report from South Australian Department of Mines and Energy, Water Resources Commission of New South Wales, Geological Survey of New South Wales, Rural Water Commission of Victoria, Department of Industry, technology and Resources Victoria, and Bureau of Mineral Resources.  
This project is a long-term study which is being under taken jointly by the bodies listed above. It is coordinated by a Steering Committee comprising members of those organisations.
The primary aim of the Project is to improve the understanding of the groundwater regime of the Murray Darling basin by examining it as a single entity, unencumbered by State boundaries.  Since a knowledge of the geology of an area is basic to the understanding of groundwater occurrence, a geological study of the basin is an essential part of the Project and, as a consequence, it will also be possible to make an assessment of other mineral resources.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sh49-07)

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.

The International Map of the World (IMW) series is no longer maintained, and printed copies of this map are no longer available. The Australian portion of the series consists of 49 maps. They were produced to an international specification using the R502 series at 1:250,000 scale as source material. Production commenced in 1926 and was completed in 1978. The maps were revised from time to time and the last reprint was undertaken in 2003. Each standard map sheet covers 4 degrees of latitude by 6 degrees of longitude and was produced using a Lambert Conformal Conic projection with 2 standard parallels. The series has recently been superseded by the 1:1 000 000 topographic map general reference.

Paterson TEMPEST AEM Survey, Western Australia, 2010 Complete Final Data

The Australian Government, through Geoscience Australia, funded an airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey to be flown over the Paterson region of Western Australia. The survey was flown using the TEMPEST AEM system during 2007 and 2008. The data acquisition and data processing and reductions were carried out by Fugro Airborne Surveys (FAS) under contract to Geoscience Australia. The 2010 data release includes the entire Paterson Survey area. This data set includes the eight blocks of infill flying that were completed with funding provided by private companies. The Paterson Survey area is shown on the locality map below (Figure 1).
The digital dataset has been arranged into two separate directories or folders according to the two main survey areas Paterson North and Paterson South. Four sub-directories are arranged according to the four main data types which are:
(i) Survey operations and processing report,
(ii) Point located electromagnetic response and derived EM Flow CDI line data,
(iii) Gridded electromagnetic response and CDI data, and
(iv) Graphic profile based multiplots showing electromagnetic, CDI and ancillary data.
