This project aims to resolve a long-standing enigma about the geological formation of the Great Artesian Basin – Australia’s most important onshore reservoir for groundwater and hydrocarbon resources. Specifically, the project will integrate sedimentological and geochemical studies to investigate the geodynamic configuration of Eastern Australia during the Jurassic Period of basin formation. The intended outcomes are an improved understanding of the evolution of the Australian continent and better knowledge of the formation of intercontinental sedimentary basins, which includes better assessment of their potential to contain hydrocarbon resources.

该项目旨在解决关于澳大利亚最重要的陆上地下水和碳氢化合物资源储集层--大北冰洋盆地的地质形成的长期谜团。具体而言，该项目将整合沉积学和地球化学研究，以调查侏罗纪盆地形成期间东澳大利亚的地球动力学配置。预期的成果是更好地了解澳大利亚大陆的演变，更好地了解洲际沉积盆地的形成，包括更好地评估其蕴藏碳氢化合物资源的潜力。
