Carnarvon Basin Gravity WA (P195630), gravity point data

Created 17/10/2025

Updated 17/10/2025

Gravity data measures small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. 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 Carnarvon Basin Gravity WA (P195630) contains a total of 10244 point data values acquired at a spacing between 760 and 7200 metres. The data is located in WA and were acquired in 1954, under project No. 195630 for West Australian Petroleum Pty Ltd.
