This project will create a modelling tool to predict how aquifers in the south east of South Australia could be used in the future given the demands of a range of industries.
18 December, 2020
Using modern data visualization techniques, this project will create a ‘virtual landscape’ of the Beetaloo Sub-basin which will assist landholders, regulators and industry to evaluate the design and placement of gas infrastructure in the region.
This project will review existing knowledge about groundwater systems in the Canning Basin to develop a more complete understanding of geological and hydrogeological information.
This factsheet describes research project activities aimed at developing a water management framework that identifies sustainable options for managing onshore gas wastewater in the Northern Territory, should gas resource development proposals proceed.
10 December, 2020
This factsheet describes research project activities designed to investigate ways in which roads, pipelines and other transport infrastructure may impact biodiversity in the Beetaloo Sub-basin during the proposed development of an onshore gas industry.
This factsheet describes research project activities designed to explore feasible options to offset lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) associated with proposed production and consumption of onshore gas extracted from the Beetaloo Sub-basin.
This project will identify the plants and animals that inhabit the Canning Basin, with a particular focus on identifying species that have important conservation value or cultural significance.
7 December, 2020
This factsheet describes research activities to establish baselines for microbial communities in the Tertiary Limestone Aquifer in south east South Australia. In addition, researchers will study the potential for microbial degradation of chemicals used by the onshore gas industry.
30 October, 2020
This project will review current industry practice and conduct experimental investigations to evaluate techniques and assess new materials designed to minimise fugitive methane emissions leaking from microfractures and gaps in gas well cement casing.
27 August, 2020
Factsheet to better understand how typical onshore gas chemicals biodegrade in relevant aquifers and soil types in the Northern Territory.
11 February, 2020
To undertake a broad spatial pilot-scale survey of water bores in the Beetaloo Sub-Basin, using direct sampling and DNA-based approaches to determine the distribution and abundance of stygofauna and characterise subterranean groundwater-dependent ecosystems.
5 February, 2020
This project will provide the community and regulators with information on the baseline concentrations of various compounds in the groundwater of important aquifers in the Beetaloo Sub-basin.
26 October, 2018
This project measures baseline methane emissions from natural and human-derived sources in the Beetaloo Sub-basin. The results will inform the community, the Northern Territory (NT) Government and the gas industry.
27 September, 2018
CSIRO scientists investigated graziers’ concerns about the impacts of CSG traffic and infrastructure on soils, pastures and livestock.
13 September, 2018
Research finds good air quality in the study region.
Analysing potential changes in groundwater flows to the Pilliga Sandstone, a Great Artesian Basin (GAB) aquifer.
30 August, 2018
Assessing water resource risks due to hydraulic fracturing activities and wellbore delamination associated with coal seam gas wells from the Sydney Basin, New South Wales, and Queensland’s Surat Basin.
28 August, 2018
This factsheet accompanies the ‘Human Health Effects of Coal Seam Gas Activities – A Study Design Framework’ report. It details a framework that can be used to design a study to investigate questions around the potential human health risks from coal seam gas activities in Australia.

Progress summary of research by GISERA in regional NSW, September 2017.
26 September, 2017
Coal seam gas (CSG) production has expanded rapidly in the Surat Basin in recent years, leading to an increase in the number of emission sources that may increase pollutant levels in the air. However limited information has been available about the levels of pollutants in the air, how these compare to other regions, and to air quality standards.
