New Territory wide SEEBASE® study providing insights to the Territory’s onshore basins

News_Seebase

The Northern Territory SEEBASE® and GIS provides an upgraded, high resolution regional map and grid of the depth-to-basement that defines the geographic extent of subsurface basins systems across the Northern Territory.  The SEEBASE® study also includes an interpretation of the tectonic evolution of the basement and basin systems, basement composition and an estimate of present-day heat flow.

The Northern Territory SEEBASE® and GIS was generated combining previous studies with updated and new data to cover the entire Territory. The study was undertaken by Geognostics Australia Pty Ltd on behalf of the NTGS and includes contributions of past work by Santos Limited and Pangaea Resources Limited. Proprietorial seismic data was also make available for the study by Empire Energy and Sweetpea Petroleum.

DIP030 is downloadable through GEMIS and contains the interpreted 3D depth-to-basement map, grid and study, while DIP031 contains the input NTGS and industry gravity and magnetic geophysical data that were interpreted to develop the SEEBASE® products. DIP031 (85GB) can be requested from the InfoCentre through GEMIS.
