FOREWORD

Under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1959-1961, agreements relating tosubsidized operations provide that the information obtained may be published by the Common­wealth Government six months after the completion of field work.

The growth of the exploration effort has greatly increased the number of sub­sidized projects and this increase has led to delays in publishing the results of operations.

The detailed results of subsidized operations may be examined at the Bureau ofMineral Resources in Canberra and Melbourne (after the agreed period) and copies of thereports may be purchased.

In order to make the main results of operations available early, short summariesare being prepared for publication. These will be grouped by area and date of completion asfar as practicable. Drilling projects and geophysical projects will be grouped separately.In due course, full reports will be published concerning those operations which have producedthe more important new data.

This Publication contains summaries of data and results of four drillingoperations undertaken in the Sydney Basin, New South Wales: Mulgoa No. 2, Mount HunterNo. 1, Stockyard Mountain No. 1, and Kurrajong Heights No. 1. The information has beenabstracted by the Petroleum Exploration Branch of the Bureau of Mineral Resources fromwell completion reports furnished by Australian Oil and Gas Corporation Limited, FarmoutDrillers N.L., and Exoil (N.S.W.) pty Limited.

SUMMARY OF DATA AND RESULTS *

SUMMARY

Mulgoa No. 2 Well was located in the central-western part of the Sydney Basin,about 35 miles west of Sydney, New South Wales. The well was drilled by the Operator,Australian Oil and Gas Corporation Limited, using a Bucyrus Erie 48-L cable-tool rig, toa total depth of 5630 feet. Drilling commenced on 20th September, 1958, and was completedon 5th November, 1959. A programme of coring and gas sampling was carried out, but noelectric logging, perforating or testing operations were undertaken.

The well penetrated 2498 feet of Triassic shales and sandstones and 3132 feetof Permian coal measures, sandstones, shales, and siltstones.

The objective of the drilling operation was to test the petroleum potential of thePermian strata in the Mulgoa Anticline. Pre-Permian rocks were expected between 5000 and5200 feet but the well was still in sediments of Permian age when mechanical difficultiescaused it to be abandoned at 5630 feet. The well was sited on the eastern flank of the anticline,some 15 miles east (basinwards) of outcropping Permian strata.

Many natural gas. shows were encountered in the Triassic and Permian bedsbut none proved to be of commercial significance. The only large flows of natural gas wereat 2579 feet and at 3558 to 3559 feet, and these proved to be blowouts in coal seams. Flowsin both cases quickly subsided. Orifice meter tests of twelve gas flows gave a maximum yieldof 40 Mcf/D, reducing to 10 Mcf/D after 20 hours.

The stratigraphic drilling operation at Mulgoa No. 2, New South Wales, wassubsidized under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1957-1958, from surface to total depth.

GEOLOGY

~ianamatta Group (Triassic) Surface to 70 feet

Dark grey to black, carbonaceous shale with thin flaggy sandstone at base.

Hawkesbury Sandstone (Triassic) : 70 to 850 feet (780 feet)

Light grey to white, medium to coarse-grained, quartz sandstone. Finelyconglomeratic in part and with a few thin grey shale beds.

Narrabeen Group (Triassic) : 850 to 2498 feet (1648 feet)

Mostly medium_grained sandstone, in part finely conglomeratic, with thininterbeds of grey and greenish shale. Grey, micaceous shale, with some chocolateshale, are dominant in the upper part of the sequence, and 50 feet of dark grey shalesoccur at the base. The interbedded shales and sandstones from 850 to 950 feet can

be correlated with the Gosford Formation. The shales from 950 to 985 feet arecorrelated with the Bald Hill Claystone or Collaroy Claystone, and the remainderis the equivalent of the Clifton Subgroup.

Lithgow Coal Measures (Permian) : 2498 to 2865 feet (367 feet)

Interbedded grey shale, black carbonaceous shale, coal seams, grey, fineto medium-grained, lithic sandstone and grey tuffaceous shale.

Coal Measures (Permian - probably equivalent to Tomago Coal Measures): 2865 to 3597feet (732 feet)

Interbedded grey shale, grey siltstone, fine to medium-grained, grey lithic sand­stone, and thin ill-defined coal stringers.

Capertee Group (Permian) : 3597 to 5630 feet (2033 feet +)

Interbedded grey siltstone (calcareous in part), dark grey shale (carbonaceousin part), fine to medium-grained, grey lithic sandstone, and medium to coarse-grained,pebbly sandstone. Thin limestone beds are interbedded with the carbonaceous stratanear the top of the sequence. The beds contain brachiopod fragments, rugose corals, andarenaceous foraminifera.

Structure

Mulgoa No. 1 (drilled in 1935, T.D. 3119 feetf and Mulgoa No. 2 were bothlocated on the Mulgoa Anticline, a small structure forming part of the Lapstone Monocline.MulgoaNo. 2 was sited one mile east and 300 feet below the crest of the anticline, andapproximately 1 1/2 miles east-south-east of Mulgoa No. L The anticline has a north­south axis, a maximum closure of 300 feet over an area of ten square miles, and is faultedon the western flank.

Occurrence of Natural Gas

Numerous gas shows were encountered during drilling. The results of analysesindicate a generally high carbon dioxide content of the gas encountered in the NarrabeenGroup, the Lithgow Coal Measures, and the unnamed coal measures to 3597 feet. Analysesof gas from the Capertee Group showed a low carbon dioxide content and a relatively highethane and propane content.

SUMMARY OF DATA AND RESULTS *

SUMMARY

Mount Hunter No. 1 Well was located in the Sydney Basin approximately threemiles west of Camden, New South Wales, and 17 miles south of Mulgoa No. 2. The well wasdrilled by the Operator, Australian Oil and Gas Corporation Limited, using a Bucyrus Erie28-L cable-tool rig, to a total depth of 3512 feet. Drilling commenced on 26th October, 1961,and was completed on 5th February, 1962. A programme of coring, gas and water sampling,and Gamma-Ray logging was undertaken.

The well penetrated 2111 feet of Triassic shales and sandstones and 1401 feetof Permian coal measures, sandstones, shales, and siltstones.

Mount Hunter No. 1 was drilled to obtain stratigraphic information and to testthe petroleum potential of the Triassic and Permian sediments in a structure located byseismic survey.

Several gas producing horizons were intersected by the well but the yieldswere too small for economic production. The well was plugged at 300 feet and the upperportion was left open for conversion to a water bore.

The stratigraphic drilling operation at Mount Hunter No. 1, New South Wales,was subsidized under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1959, from surface to total depth.

STOCKYARD MOUNTAIN NO. 1

SUMMARY OF DATA AND RESULTS *

SUMMARY

Stockyard Mountain No.1 Well was drilled in the Sydney Basin, about 10 l/2miles south-west of Port Kembla, on a surface structure known as the Stockyard MountainDome. The operating company, Farmout Drillers No Liability, drilled the well under afarmout arrangement with Consolidated Oil Limited, on New South Wales Petroleum Pros­pecting Licence No. 7. The well was drilled by Woodside (Lakes Entrance) Oil CompanyN.L., using a Brewster N.4 rig, to a total depth of 3516 feet. Drilling commenced on 30thJuly, 1962, and was completed on 12th October, 1962. A full programme of logging, testing,and coring was undertaken.

The well penetrated three feet of Recent alluvium and scree, 3282 feet ofPermian sediments and volcanics, and bottomed at 3516 feet in interbedded sandstone,siltstone, and shale of presumed Devonian age.

Stockyard Mountain No. 1 was drilled to test the petroleum potential of thecomplete Permian sequence on a known closed structure, the Stockyard Mountain Dome.

A number of porous interbeds were present between 1867 and 2060 feet in thePermian Nowra Sandstone, and the gas detection equipment recorded very small amounts ofhydrocarbon gas present in the drilling mud while drilling below 1890 feet. A drillstem test ofthe interval 1859 to 2110 feet yielded 560 feet of fresh water.

The stratigraphic drilling operation at stockyard Mountain No. I, New SouthWales, was subsidized under the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1959-1961, from surfaceto total depth.

Detailed:

Surface to 15 feet (3 feet)Alluvium and scree.

Gerringong Volcanics (Permian) 15 to 45 feet (30 feet)

Interbedded, grey and brown, fine-grained tuff, brown chert, dark grey basalt,and light grey, fine-grained, quartz sandstone.

Berry Shale (Permian) 45 to 1610 feet (1565 feet)

This formation consists of a dominantly shaly unit to 362 feet, a siltstone unitto 840 feet, an interbedded unit of sandstone, siltstone, and shale to 970 feet, vol­canics, dominantly basalt, to 1250 feet, and a second shale unit, with sandstoneinterbeds below 1371 feet, to 1610 feet.

The upper shale unit (45 to 362 feet) is dark grey, silty, hard shale, withminor amounts of grey, carbonaceous siltstone and fine-grained pyritic sandstone.The siltstone unit (362 to 840 feet) is mostly medium grey siltstone containing tracesof mica, pyrite, and carbonaceous material, with minor shale and sandstone as above.

The interbedded unit (840 to 970 feet) consists of interbeds of grey and brown,fine to medium-grained, hard sandstone, grey, hard, micaceous, siliceous siltstone,light grey, hard, dolomitic siltstone, and a few interbeds of shale and siltstonesimilar to those in the higher units.

The volcanics (970 to 1250 feet) include a dark to medium grey, porphyriticbasalt and grey-brown, porphyritic rhyolite with bands of fine-grained sandstonein the upper part and buff to grey siliceous dolomite near the base.

The lower shale unit (1250 to 1610 feet) is mostly dark grey to brown andblack micaceous shale with interbeds of sandstone similar to that in the higher units.

Nowra Sandstone (Permian) 1610 to 2065 feet (455 feet)

Light grey to white, fine-grained to very coarse-grained sandstone, generallysiliceous but kaolinitic and calcareous inplaces. Porous zones were noted and testedbut fresh water only was recovered.

Wandrawandian Siltstone /Permian) 2065 to 2549 feet (484 feet)

Interbedded, grey-brown, fine-grained sandstone, dark brown to black, silty,carbonaceous, micaceous shale, and grey to black, tuffaceous, argillaceous silt­stone. A thin bed of finely crystalline fossiliferous limestone was noted between2380 and 2390 feet.

Conjola Beds (Permian) 2549 to 3255 feet (706 feet)

Interbedded basic volcanics, tuffaceous claystone, siliceous sandstone, argillace_ous and tuffaceous siltstone, carbonaceous shale, and minor amounts of dolomite,conglomeratic sandstone, quartzite, and coal.

18

Basal Conglomerate (Permian) 3255 to 3297 feet (42 feet)

The basal unit of the Permian is a grey conglomerate containing pebbles andcobbles of quartzite, sandstone, chert, siltstone, schist, and slate.

Devonian Sediments 3297 to 3516 feet (219 feet+)

Interbedded, light green to pink, siliceous sandstone; grey to red-brownsiltstone; and red-brown, grey, maroon, and green shale. No fossils were foundand the age was assumed to be Devonian.

Structure

Stockyard Mountain No. 1 was drilled on a domal structure having an area ofapproximately nine square miles and a closure of 200 feet on the base of the Bumbo Basalt.There is no certain evidence that the structure extends downwards in the Permian sediments.Dips measured in COJes 13 J3415 to 3425 feet) and 14 (3511 to 3516 feet) taken in the Devonianbeds vary from 6 to 15 and are in keeping with the angular unconformity between theDevonian and Permian strata.

Occurrence of Hydrocarbons

Minor showings of gas were encountered in Stockyard Mountain No. 1, but nonewas of commercial significance. A Johnston Williams hot filament type gas detector and aHoneywell recorder were used for the detection of hydrocarbon gas, and the readings usedin the preparation of a gas log. Below 1890 feet very small traces of hydrocarbon gas weredetected in the drilling mud.

Porosity and Permeability

A number of thin porous beds are present in the Nowra Sandstone between 1867and 2059 feet. These beds total 51 feet; the pOl"osity is estimated to range between 10 and14 percent. Permeability appears to be poor. A test of these porous beds yielded 560 feetof fresh water. Two thin porous units are also present at the top of the Wandrawandian Silt­stone. These were included in the drillstem test of the porous unit of the Nowra Sandstone,which yielded fresh water. Micrologs indicated that several thin porous stringers appear tobe present in the Wandrawandian Siltstone between 2307 and 2324 feet. These total in theaggregate less than four feet and are probably fresh water bearing. Several thin streaks ofporosity each less than one foot, may also be present in the basal Wandrawandian between 2536and 2541 feet. Elsewhere, the section penetrated in the Stockyard Mountain No. 1 Well wasnon-porous.

KURRAJONG HEIGHTS NO. 1

SUMMARY OF DATA AND RESULTS*

SUMMARY

Kurrajong Heights No. 1 Well was. located in the central-western part of theSydney Basin, about 12 miles west-north-west of Windsor, New South Wales, and approxim­ately 19 1/4 miles north of Mulgoa No. 2. In 1955, the well was drilled by Australian Oil andGas Corporation Limited, to 4756 feet where drilling was suspended. In 1962, Exoil (N.S.W.)Pty Limited, under a farmout agreement with Australian Oil and Gas Corporation Limited,deepened the well to a total depthof9132 feet. The same rig, a National-Ideal 55, was used todrill both sections of the hole.

The drilling contractor, Oil Drilling and Exploration Limited, commenced drillingat Kurrajong Heights No. 1 On 11th February, 1955. Operations were suspended on 2ndAugust, 1955, at 4756 feet. The contractor resumed drilling on 23rd July, 1962, and thewell was abandoned on 25th November, 1962 at total depth 9132 feet. A full programme. oflogging, testing, and coring was undertaken.

The well penetrated 2899 feet of Triassic sediments, predominantly sandstone,4950 feet of Permian sediments, chiefly sandy siltstone and sandy shale, and was abandonedat 9132 feet after drilling through 1267 feet of volcanics of supposed Permian or Carboni­ferous age.

The objective of the well was to test the petroleum potential of the Triassic andPermian sediments over a structural "high" indicated by geological survey. The Triassicand Permian sediments down to 4495 feet included suitable reservoir rocks, but the Permianbelow 4495 feet, although partly marine, did not appear to contain suitable source beds.

No significant shows of oil or gas were recorded and no significant fluid wasrecovered from twelve drillstem tests at depths ranging from 1046 feet to 7997 feet.

The stratigraphic drilling operation at Kurrajong Heights No. 1 was subsidizedunder the Petroleum Search Subsidy Act 1959-1961, from 4756 feet to total depth.

Grey sandy shale, sandy siltstone, and dense quartzose sandstone with thin coalstringers in the upper and basal parts. A dense, white, conglomeratic sandstoneoccurs from 6217 to 6285 feet. The lower 68 feet contain carbonaceous shale withplant remains. The full sequence is regarded as the equivalent of the Capertee Group.

Volcanics (Permo-Carboniferous?) 7865 to 9132 feet (1267 feet+)

Altered (weathered?) basalt, probably spilitic; rhyolite, and rhyolitic weldedtuff.

Structure

Kurrajong Heights No. 1 Well was located in the structurally high area betweenthe Kurrajong Fault to the west, which downthrows 400 feet to the west, and the LapstoneMonocline , which trends north and dips 1100 feet to the east. The monoclinal axis lies aboutthree miles east of the well. Local closure in the Hawkesbury Sandstone occurs against theKurrajong Fault.

Relevance to Occurrence of Petroleum

No significant signs of petroleum or natural gas were encountered in the well.A gas detector was used from 4756 feet to total depth. A small gas kick of only twelve unitsoccurred while coring in fractured lava at 7990 feet.

The upper part of the section to a depth of 4495 feet consists of Triassic andPermian non-marine sandy sediments. These sediments may contain reservoir beds but areunfavourable as source rocks.

Marine Permian strata occur from 4495 feet to the top of the lavas at 7865 feet.Thin coal seams are present so the rocks may be in part non-marine. The lithology is pre­dominantly sandy shale and sandy siltstone with sparse organic remains. These rocks do notappear to be favourable source rocks for petroleum.

Porosity and Permeability

The lithological examination of samples showed bands of poor to good porosityin the Triassic sandstones.

Most of the sandstones between 2915 and 4495 feet were heavily cemented althoughporosity was evident on occasion. Sandstone from 3987 to 4000 feet showed good porosityand probably had good permeability; very little cementing material was present. Althoughcoal produced the most prolific gas bleeding the permeability of the seams was impossibleto assess from the electric log because of the thinness of the seams.

The sandstones between 4495 and 7865 feet are solidly cemented with silicaand have very slight porosity, if any.
