Twenty-seven whole rock samples and eleven extracted samples or kerogen concentrates from five potential Permian sources within the Cooper Basin, Australia were provided for petroleum generation characterisation (eleven samples) and PhaseKinetic characterisation (six samples) following the approach of di Primio and Horsfield (2006). Organofacies Type definition was performed for twentyseven samples and characterisation of free hydrocarbons for 15 samples. The evolution of late gas potentials as a function of organofacies and maturity were determined for fifteen samples following the approach of Mahlstedt (2012), as well as kinetic parameters of primary and secondary gas formation (one sample) using a modified GORFit - model (Mahlstedt et al., 2013). Thermal maturity of Patchawarra Fm. samples is broad (0.5 5.5% VR) offering an insight into differences of gas potential.
