N2  - Gas fields in the Port Campbell Embayment cur&#xad;rently supply all the natural gas markets (non-LPG) in western Victoria as well as commercial quanti&#xad;ties of carbon dioxide (C02) to industrial markets. Initial discoveries made between 1979 and 1981 were brought on-stream in 1986 with production from the North Paaratte field. Another substantial discovery was made in 1988, the Iona gas field, followed by the Boggy Creek C02 field in 1991, then the My lor and Langley fields in 1994. Discovery of Mylor marked the first recovery of oil from the Late Cretaceous Waarre Formation. Extensive 2D seis&#xad;mic data sets have been recorded in the region since 1979, and the first 3D seismic survey in the Otway Basin was carried out in 1993 extending beyond the area of the initial discoveries. No data on the fields have been published for nearly a decade and little detail about the structural and stratigraphic geol&#xad;ogy of the Late Cretaceous in the area has been documented. Summaries of the fields are presented incorporating many insights gained from interpre&#xad;tation of the 3D seismic data and its verification by the &apos;rotary lie detector&apos;.
