Hydrocarbon source rock characterization and Basin modelling, A case study from Poseidon field, Browse Basin, Australia.

Accuracy is crucial throughout the hydrocarbon discovery phase due to the high risk nature of the industry. Knowing geochemistry is crucial for locating the source rock hydrocarbon production during this phase, where it plays a significant role in Hydrocarbon Asset life. In basin modelling, the conditions are favorable for the creation and migration of hydrocarbons and the basin model reconstructs the deposition of sediment. It is also used to determine the best place to look for hydrocarbons. Geochemical and basin modelling were utilized in conjunction to ascertain, A significant quantity and kind of hydrocarbons can be created and released by source rock to form a commercial oil or gas accumulation. For the Poseidon field, Browse basin, Australia, a case study for the geochemical and basin modelling was created. The Posedion-1 exploration well further supports our study’s conclusion that the Jurassic-era Plover and Montara formation has significant potential to produce hydrocarbons, as well The decision to pursue more exploration efforts in the Poseidon field is supported by geochemistry. Proteus-1 and Pharos-1 Wells are used to create two 1D calibrated basin models for the basin modelling project. I’d like to thank EAGE for allowing me to submit a late abstract.
