Basin Extent Data Sources Polygon Layer. The polygons show the provenance of information used to compile the sedimentary basins extent data layer. The 35 scientific papers and consultancy reports used are in the public domain. The quality of information used is variable, ranging from GNS Science consultancy reports based on modern high quality seismic surveys, to regional interpretations based mainly on gravity data. Clicking on an individual polygon will bring up a link to the data source. This is a reconnaissance-level map only.

Commercially available seismic data for both proposed and completed seismic surveys. See the Contact field for contact details to the relevant parties.

Downstream infrastructure Maui offshore platforms; Tui and Maari FPSOs; Pohokura, Maari and Kupe unmanned platforms. Eight onshore production stations in Taranaki. North Island gas pipeline network, including pipelines to Gisborne and Hastings. Oil refinery and port at Marsden Point, Whangarei, with connections to the North Island gas pipeline network and a liquids pipeline to Auckland.

A catalogue of over 40,000 gravity survey observations in New Zealand, including free air, Bouguer and isostatic gravity anomalies has been assembled. These data have been assembled from survey measurements mostly made by Geophysics Division, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, (now GNS Science) since the 1940s using a variety of meters. Some gravity data has been contributed by petroleum explorers and universities. In 2004 all data were uniformly reprocessed using GNS Science software and tied to primary gravity sites the New Zealand Reference Gravity Stations (https://doi.org/10.21420/96Q5-8581).
