Geothermal explorers GeoGen/AGL, Granite Power, Greenearth Energy and MNGI (Petratherm) generously made available their basic data. Quite a number of honours and postgraduate students from the University of Melbourne and Monash University contributed their study results. DELWP provided access to the State observation groundwater bore network for temperature measuring and Lakes Oil provided access to Wombat-4 that was logged in collaboration with Geoscience Australia, who also collected some data from the Murray Basin. Kate Bassano assisted on contract from SRK for much of the early data management and collection and Michelle Ayling internally assisted later in the project.

Introduction Geothermal energy is naturally occurring heat energy stored within rocks of the earth. Under the right circumstances, geothermal energy can be extracted and used directly for heating and cooling at moderate temperatures, or converted into electricity at higher temperatures (e.g. Duffield & Sass, 2003). Geothermal energy resources are attractive due to their 2015. During this time, extensive geothermal data was minimal greenhouse gas emissions and ability to directly collected by GSV and compiled from exploration provide energy security from a local source. Knowledge companies and university research. Precision of the geothermal heat flow allows the temperature of temperature logs from 242 bores (totalling the crust to be modelled at increasing depths (even approximately 74,000 logged metres) resulted in 175 below the depth of direct measurement) so that the full heat flow estimates considered to be of reliable quality. crustal temperature regime and deep geothermal This significantly expands on the ten previously resources can be estimated. In Victoria, previous work published geothermal heat flow estimates drawn from documented shallow geothermal energy resources from similar temperature logs and thermal conductivity direct temperature measurements (King et al., 1987; measurements. Driscoll, 2006). Although this work remains valid, the nature of collected data (mainly bottom hole Over much of western and central Victoria, the close temperature point data sourced from bores) and a lack spacing of the expanded new data allows for of rock thermal conductivity measurements have meaningful interpolation between the data points to limited its value in terms of providing the right create a map of surface heat flow. This new data will information to create a geothermal heat flow map. assist in better understanding geothermal resource potential and also hydrocarbon maturity modelling for To assess Victoria’s geothermal resource potential, GSV oil and gas prospectivity. led the Geothermal Atlas Project between 2010 and ii I Geothermal heat flow map of Victoria – Geothermal Atlas Report 1 Geothermal heat flow map of Victoria – Geothermal Atlas Report 1 I 1 2. Previous work The Oil Shock Crisis in the 1970s led to the first appraisal of Victorian geothermal resources (King et al., 1987), which drew on historic temperature point data collected from numerous water and petroleum bores across the state. The quality of much of this temperature data is somewhat degraded because many measurements were carried out soon after drilling, when the natural geothermal gradient was still disturbed by the introduction of surface temperature drilling fluids into the bore. Nevertheless, this data showed that the thick, porous appraised the basic geological framework relevant to (and thermally insulating) sediments of the Gippsland geothermal potential in further support of geothermal and Otway basins often reached temperatures of about exploration (Driscoll, 2006). This research showed that 50 – 70 degrees Celsius at a depth of approximately one deep petroleum bores in some parts of the Gippsland kilometre. Such geothermal temperatures could be used and Otway basins were reaching 150 degrees Celsius at directly for some industrial and direct heating approximately three kilometres depth, suggesting that applications in preference to burning fossil fuels. electricity generation from geothermal energy could be possible. The return of cheap oil prices throughout the 1980s and 1990s suppressed interest in geothermal energy. The Before this new phase of geothermal interest, there were rapid rise in oil prices in the early 2000s, combined with only ten historic heat flow estimates for Victoria from concerns over greenhouse gas emissions, renewed precision downhole temperature logs with thermal interest in geothermal energy. The Victorian conductivity, most collected by academia from the Government created the Geothermal Energy Resources 1970s to the 1990s (see Table 1). Many of these estimates Act (2005) to allow the exploration of deeper and hotter had relatively poor geothermal gradient control geothermal energy. An initial report aimed at predicting because of widely spaced downhole measurements and deeper, hotter temperatures was limited by a lack of limited amounts of rock thermal conductivity data. dedicated heat flow data and a paucity of rock thermal Many of the historic estimates are considered unreliable conductivity information (Cull, 2005).

Dear Sir, I am advised that you are a direct descendant of Rev.Horace Finn Tucker, sometime of ^.Christ Church, South Yarra, author of The Hew Arcadia, and founder of the tucker village Settlements. As an historian I have been interested for some years in his work. In 1964 a series of articles I had written on the Tucker settlements of thd nineties appeared in the Educational Magazine. More recently I have dealt with the general subject of village settlements in an address to the Royal Historical Society of Victoria( a list of settlements isssued by me on that occasion is enclos­ ed for your interest). Since reading The Hew Arcadia I realize how little T know of the social movements and idealism of the Utopians of the nineties. Some clues to the way men were thinking then may be included in the other writings-if any-of H.F.Tucker or in biographical details xbbl relating to him. Have you any such material that could be borrowed, perused and returned? I have gleaned from Christ Church all possible in the Church journals but still do not know such elementary details as date of birth and death, education, travels, friends, interests etc of Rev. H.F.Tucker. Believe me this is not idle prying- for the man's social experiments and writings belong to history. I knew, of course, of the Brotherhood's village settlement at Carrum Bbossh Downs, but not till recently, did your address come my way and the possible connexion pointed out.
