This study was commissioned by Geoscience Australia (GA) to produce a report on seal capacity of select samples from wells in the Officer Basin of Western Australia and South Australia. Plugs were taken from the Giles-1, Yowalga-3, Vines-1 and Birksgate-1 wells and analysed via mercury injection capillary pressure testing. Results demonstrate that the analysed samples are capable of sealing very large columns of both methane and carbon dioxide.
