Australasian exploration in 2013 dropped to its lowest level in the last ten years.  There were 97 conventional exploration and appraisal wells (E&A) drilled, 37% fewer than 2012. Drilling success rates remained high at 25%, due to the number of near-field and onshore successes, but discovered volumes totalled only 350 million barrels of oil equivalent – the poorest result since the nineties.
