The APPEA Journal has been documenting the pulse of the Australian upstream petroleum industry since its first publication in 1961. It is recognised in the upstream oil and gas industry as Australia’s leading peer-reviewed publication for information on geoscience, engineering and business management. In order to keep up the industry up to date with the latest innovations, all peer-reviewed papers, extended abstracts, oral and poster presentations and plenary presentations from the latest APPEA Conference are included in The APPEA Journal.
