Cooper GW point data - salinity and hydrochemistry

Abstract

The dataset was derived by the Geological and Bioregional Assessment Program from Geoscience Australia's groundwater bore database. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.

History

Pressure data compiled from petroleum well reports and PEP-SA database was converted to equivalent hydraulic head value. For wells that had equivalent Hydraulic head in the Hutton Sandstone, measurements in the well situated nearest to top of Hutton Sandstone were then extracted from the equivalent hydraulic head dataset then converted to a shapefile for spatial analysis in ArcGIS. In this Excel workbook, Pressure data compiled from Qld petroleum well reports for the Geological Bioregional Programme, as well as from PEP-SA database have been compiled in this spreadsheet. Pressure data was assessed for its suitability for conversion to an equivalent hydraulic head. Those passed QC were then converted to equivalent hydraulic head value. This dataset includes a summary of all compiled pressure data from Qld and SA datasources, the formulas and parameters used to convert the pressures to an equivalent hydraulic head. This Excel workbook, contains petroleum well formation test information, including pressure and temperature data that was compiled from Qld petroleum well completion reports for the Geological Bioregional Programme. Well completion reports were downloaded from QDEX. This Excel workbook, contains petroleum well formation test information, including pressure and temperature data that was extracted from PEPS-SA petroleum database for the Geological Bioregional Programme.
