This paper reports that onshore exploration an development work in Australia, although not as active as offshore E and D, is providing interesting niche opportunities, especially for smaller companies. There continues to be hope of making commercial finds in Western Australia's onshore Carnarvon basin --- site of Australia's first post-World War II oil discovery, Rough Range in 1953. An oil play is under way in the Canning basin, and gas finds are the focus elsewhere in Western Australia. however, only two onshore regions in Australia stand out with concentrated and consistent E and D programs: the Cooper-Eromanga and Surat/Bowen basin complexes.
