Canning Basin Project (Stage II) - Geochemical and Porosity/Permeability Data

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

This record comprises largely 160 spreadsheets containing quantitative organic geochemical and permeability/porosity data from 111 petroleum exploration wells located throughout the Canning Basin (Fig 1). About half of the geochemical data is from AGSO's Orgchem database (as at 5.5.94); and it was largely this information that was used to undertake the petroleum systems analysis described in Kennard et al., (1994). That review, and this database, have been augmented substantially by geochemical information from well completion reports and other unpublished company reports that were examined during the compilation of information in Stage II of the Project, between 1992-4. This information has not been incorporated into Orgchem. The permeability and porosity data are from individual well completion reports and other unpublished company reports.
