Product description:

Abstract
Victoria’s Otway Basin has been assessed for its likely undiscovered hydrocarbon potential by two independent methodologies, GeoScience Victoria’s PetSys YTF methodology and the USGS’s Seventh Approximation Monte Carlo approach.

Overall, both approaches suggest that the Victorian Otway Basin contains significantly more undiscovered gas than has been found to date in the basin. This finding is consistent with the basin’s essentially frontier exploration status, especially when compared to mature provinces such as the Gippsland Basin.
