Gravity interpretation report for Kea Exploration permit PEP51153, onshore Taranaki. The gravity measurements used in this report were licensed from the GNS Science database of gravity stations. Results from this study helped to further define the Patea-Tonharporutu High and the depth to top of the basement. This study also highlighted the potential for hydrocarbon plays to exist in the relatively deep and very lightly explored Waitaanga Sub-basin. It is recommended but it was not possible with this dataset to model the thickness of the basement thrust-sheets.
