The first major oil flow from the Eromanga basin occurred from the Strzelecki 3 well in September 1978. Although exploration activities had been conducted in the area since 1959, the Eromanga section-as part of the Australian Great Artesian basin-had flowed water on numerous tests and was generally considered to be filled with water. Since 1978, about 50 oil fields have been discovered in the Eromanga, ranging from less than 100,000 bbl to 45 million bbl of recoverable reserves. Production from the basin currently exceeds 45,000 BOPD. This paper traces the history of the Eromanga basin, its discoveries, development, and future prospects.
