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.

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 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
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
CSIRO scientists investigated graziers’ concerns about the impacts of CSG traffic and infrastructure on soils, pastures and livestock.
13 September, 2018
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
CSIRO is undertaking a study to better understand groundwater flow in two Queensland aquifers which provide an important resource for domestic and stock water supply.

Soil compaction has long been considered an important issue for soils of the region and modern farming methods have been developed to minimise damage to these soils from farm machinery. However, it has not been clear what damage may result from the large numbers of vehicles used along CSG pipelines and access tracks and within lease areas.
31 December, 2016
Aerial photogrammetry is used to monitor and model the impact of access tracks on water ows and erosion.

Farmers and CSG workers may come from different backgrounds and this can impact on communications between them. The CSIRO Shared Space project has shown that the aesthetics (visual aspects) of a farm is quite individualised and speci c to the farmer and potentially a cause for a lack of understanding from others.
This project developed a means of telling the story of changes in rural areas before CSG and during the development and production phases.
