Petroleum exploration and development titles

The map and supporting booklet (the key) are based on information held by the State and Territory Departments of Mines and the Commonwealth Department of Industry, Science and Resources.

The map is published annually at a scale of 1:5,000,000 and supports the Australian Government's offshore petroleum exploration area release program.

The map includes all available information up to April 2004. The key (booklet) accompanying the map lists the relevant title numbers, the title holders, areas of the titles and expiry dates, by State and Territory. Also included is information on petroleum exploration permits, licences, leases and production licences in offshore areas under the jurisdiction of the relevant State and Territory petroleum acts and offshore areas under the Commonwealth Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act.

The Geoscience Australia Petroleum Titles Map is available in Intergraph Design File (DGN), Standard Interchange Format (SIF), DXF and Autocad (DWG) format.
