INTRODUCTION
This analysis has been undertaken in order to provide a breakdoln into the amount of
Australian, Overseas and Joint Australian-Overseas equity in petroleum exploration in Australia and
the-Territory of Papua and Nel Guinea as at December 31st, 1966.
In preliminary work several avenues of approach were examined. One major difficulty
encountered las that In many cases the terms of agreements between operators were not available
except on a confident ial bas Is. Another wasjhat in many cases the agreements involved the
spending of a certain sum, the discovery of a-certain quantity of petroleum and/or various time
elements. The status of these agreements (time, expenditure, or other conditions) is not
publicly available.
Bearing these difficulties in mind, it was decided to make the analysis of the most
generally available and publlshed Information; namely the percentage participation earned or
to be earned by a company or group In the various petroleum titles expressed as a percentage
of the area of the title in question, and to apportion these percentages and areas on the basis
of the nationality of the company or individual members of a group of companies.
