Abstract

The integrated interpretation of the airborne FALCON® Airborne Gravity Gradiometer (AGG) survey was designed to assist oil and gas producer Empire Oil and Gas in identifying target areas for hydrocarbon exploration in the Perth Basin. It was developed as a synthesis of the geological structure, tectonic evolution and principles of gravity and magnetic data behaviour. The survey identified areas containing large structural leads and trends as the target of future gas exploration activities, including infill 2D seismic acquisition. The prospectivity of some identified leads has been significantly increased by the gas discovery at wells Red Gully North-1 and Gingin-1, located in EP 389 in central Perth Basin.
