Full description

"GEDIS" boreholes names were made up of local names, parish and borehole number within the parish. A borehole is known by the parish name in which it is located, and a unique number within that parish. In addition, the database contains "local names" that further identify the borehole (either by its name or its location).

The GEDIS database has been set-up so that the petroleum well name is usually the "local name" in the boreholes database. The index cards are ordered alphanumerically by well name.

Details included from petroleum wells were bores, cuttings, depth, location, trays and remarks. Similarly for water bore cores. The "cuttings" were rock chip samples generated by rotary drill bits and collected at the surface of the hole. The cores are solid long cylindrical-shaped rock samples.

Details for water bore cores were number of bores, cuts, depth, location, number of trays, drill numbers

Cores and cuttings were stored at the Department's core shed at Werribee (as at 2008).
