Biostratigraphy is a fundamental stratigraphic tool for age dating and correlation in the oil and gas sector, and is increasingly being applied to CCUS, mining and minerals, and hydrogeological projects. Used to its full potential, biostratigraphy not only provides high resolution correlations between wells, but also places constraints on depositional environments, thermal maturity, source rock […]

Acreage Release Data Packs & the Importance of Standardized Biostratigraphic Data
We often field questions regarding the differences between our palynological datasets and those available open-file, so we thought it could be a good time to explain this as we announce our Acreage Release Data Packs, and to show why standardized palynological data is crucial for your geological modelling. Open file biostratigraphic data is often a […]
APT and MGPalaeo in Australian oil and gas partnership
MGPalaeo have entered into a joint venture agreement with petroleum systems specialist Applied Petroleum Technology (APT) to provide integrated multi-client and post-well analyses for E&P companies operating in Australia. The parties’ first study will focus on the Roebuck Basin on the central North West Shelf of Australia. “To date there has been very little innovation […]

MGPalaeo’s two-day integrated core workshop, co-run with Darren Ferdinando (Basin Science), focuses on the Permian and Early Triassic of the northern Perth Basin. Nearly one kilometre of cores from fifteen wells, including Waitsia, Senecio, Dongara, Hovea, Corybas, Cliff Head, and […]
The AUSTRALIS Viewer and A New Core Workshop
There is a lot happening in the bug house this month: we’ve recently launched our all-new AUSTRALIS Viewer platform, plus we have two integrated core workshops coming up, with registrations now being accepted. The AUSTRALIS Viewer Our new AUSTRALIS Viewer lets you explore all the wells with fully reviewed and standardized well data from spud […]
Dorado 2 Core Workshop
Date: On requestVenue: Core Library DMP, 37 Harris Street, CarlisleCosts: On requestPrice includes a handout booklet and catering. MGPalaeo can run a one-day integrated workshop focussing solely on the Dorado 2 core, drilled in the Bedout Sub-basin in 2019. Dorado 2 was the first appraisal well of the Dorado oil and gas field which was discovered in 2018. […]
New Triassic Multi-Client Studies from MGPalaeo
MGPalaeo are excited to announce two new Triassic multi-client studies; a Greater T. playfordii study (Middle-Early Triassic), and a Bonaparte Basin Triassic Breakdown. Both studies expand upon the Dorado structural-stratigraphic play trend identified in the Bedout Sub-basin. For more information on these studies, please read on: Greater T. playfordii Study (Middle-Early Triassic) MGPalaeo are undertaking […]
COVID-19 Update
From the team at MGPalaeo: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and following advice and guidelines from the Australian Government, the majority of MGPalaeo staff will be working from home from today, Tuesday 24 March, until further notice. The health and safety of our staff and their families is our top priority, but we aim to […]
Biostratigraphy Review of the Onshore Otway Basin (Victoria)
MGPalaeo is excited to announce the release of a new biostratigraphy project undertaken for the Geological Survey of Victoria (GSV). The task was to review and supplement the current biostratigraphic dataset for the onshore Otway Basin in Victoria. This project was the result of a collaborative effort with Stephen Gallagher, Fabian Stanislaus and Vera Korasidis […]
From the Pinnacles to post-glacial Permian Plays of the Perth Basin
Here’s something a little different this time, as we wanted to give a summary of the recent Perth Basin fieldtrip that Amely helped run, plus discuss our upcoming Perth Basin core workshop. As such, the following is by Chris Watts: We’ve sadly packed away our hiking boots following a three-day geological fieldtrip through the Northern […]
