Area NT07-2
Money Shoal Basin
Location
Area NT07-2 is located about 280 km northeast of Darwin in the Arafura Sea, between Australia’s Northern Territory and Indonesia. Water depths range from about 75 to 230 m (Figure 1). The release area overlies the Mesozoic to Cenozoic Money Shoal Basin (Figure 2). In the southeastern part of the release area, the Money Shoal Basin is underlain by the Goulburn Graben, which is part of the Neoproterozoic to Permian Arafura Basin. The release area is located to the east of the recent gas discoveries at Caldita 1 and Barossa 1, ST1 and the Lynedoch gas field. Tuatara 1, the only exploration well located in the release area, had oil and gas indications. Area NT07-2 comprises 99 graticular blocks (8030 km2).
