Welcome to Advent Energy
Advent Energy was formed in 2004 and is an unlisted oil and gas exploration and production company based in Perth, Western Australia.
Advent has assembled an attractive portfolio of assets both on and offshore Australia that have had an estimated $126 million spent on historic exploration. All permits are located next to a ready market and/or excellent infrastructure, thereby maximising Advent’s ability to optimise any resources.
Included in the portfolio is:
- Petroleum Exploration Permit 11 in the offshore Sydney Basin. This permit has been assessed to contain up to 16.3 Tcf prospective recoverable resources that lie within 50km of the major population region of Sydney and excellent port and power generation infrastructure.
- Carnarvon Basin (permit EP325) where supply of gas from the Rivoli gas field to the Australian Government naval facility at Exmouth is anticipated.
- Retention Lease 1, and Exploration Permit 386, in the Bonaparte Basin. Discussions with Argyle Diamonds regarding supply of gas/energy are continuing.
- A JV led by Victoria Petroleum will allow Advent to earn 50% in the Catalina block in Petroleum Exploration Licence 111. This block is nestled amongst numerous oil and gas fields in the Cooper Basin in South Australia.
