3D Seismic Data

The greater Central Fields complex of the Gippsland Basin, comprised of the Halibut, Fortescue and Mackerel fields, has produced 1.7 billion barrels of oil from four platforms in 37 years of production. After the initial development drilling phases from Halibut (1969–70), Mackerel (1977–80), Fortescue (1983–86) and Cobia (1983–85) platforms and five in-fill drilling campaigns (1992–2003) it is still possible to target unswept highly productive multi-darcy reservoirs along with bypassed zones in lower quality sands. During 2007, a six well program was completed from the Halibut platform using an upgraded workover rig that added significant volumes with combined initial rates of more than 16,000 barrels of oil per day. In addition, despite being conductor limited, the program tested strategic concepts and demonstrated significant remaining potential in a variety of reservoir qualities and depositional environments. The outstanding success of the 2007 program was based on an up-to-date geologic framework, key technical advances, ongoing investment commitment and multi-discipline integration across workplace functions. Advancements in 3D seismic data quality and analyses, reservoir surveillance, innovative slot recovery and data integration all played a role in the success of the program. Building on the success elements of the 2007 program, a higher capacity rig has been mobilised and upgraded to apply new drilling technologies to access the remaining potential and help mitigate basin decline.

Carnarvon Basin

Interpretation of regional scale merged 3D seismic data sets covering the North Carnarvon Basin has for the first time enabled a detailed description of Mesozoic stratigraphic and structural features on a basin scale. Isoproportional slicing of the data enables direct interpretation of Triassic depositional environments, including contrasting low-stand and high-stand fluvial channel complexes, marginal marine clastic systems and reef complexes. Channels vary dramatically between sinuous-straight single channels within low net:gross floodplain successions, to broad channel belts within relatively high net:gross fluvial successions. The latter can be traced from the inboard part of the basin to the outer areas of the Exmouth Plateau. 3D visualisation and interpretation has demonstrated the huge variety of structural styles that are present, including basement-involved extensional faults, detached listric fault complexes, polygonal faults, and regional scale vertical strike-slip faults with flower structures. Fault trends include north–south, north–northeast to south–southwest, and northeast–southwest, with deformation events occurring mainly between the Rhaetian and Valanginian. Extensional and compressional deformation has created multiple horsts, three-way fault closures, fold belts and associated four-way anticlinal traps. Wrench tectonics may also explain pock-mark trains with the interpreted transfer of over-pressure from Triassic to Early Cretaceous levels. The use of regional scale merged 3D seismic data sets is now shedding light on tectonostratigraphic features on a basin scale that were previously unrecognised or enigmatic on 2D seismic or local 3D seismic data sets.
