The upper Permian to Lower Triassic sedimentary succession in the southern Bonaparte Basin represents an extensive marginal marine depositional system that hosts several gas accumulations, including the Blacktip gas field that has been in production since 2009. Development of additional identified gas resources has been hampered by reservoir heterogeneity, as highlighted by preliminary results from a post drill analyses of wells in the study area that identify reservoir effectiveness as a key exploration risk. The sedimentary succession that extends across the Permian–Triassic stratigraphic boundary was deposited during a prolonged marine transgression and shows a transition in lithofacies from the carbonate dominated Dombey Formation to the siliciclastic dominated Tern and Penguin formations. Recent improvements in chronostratigraphic calibration of Australian biostratigraphic schemes, spanning the late Permian and Early Triassic, inform our review of available palynological data and re-interpretation and infill sampling of well data. The results provide a better resolved, consistent and up-to-date stratigraphic scheme, allowing an improved understanding of the timing, duration, and distribution of depositional environments of the upper Permian to Lower Triassic sediments across the Petrel Sub-basin and Londonderry High.
