Potential Commercial Area
type: Concept
in scheme: Petroleum Tenement Type
definition: QLD: You can apply to have an area of your authority to prospect (ATP) declared as a potential commercial area (PCA) so that you can evaluate the potential production and market opportunities for the resource. The PCA is a way of retaining an area of your ATP beyond its term to provide extra time to commercialise the resource. The maximum term for an ATP is 12 years, while the declaration for the PCA can be for up to 15 years. When you apply for a PCA, you must include a commercial viability report that shows that the area is likely to be commercially viable within 15 years. You must also include an evaluation program showing how you will overcome any factors inhibiting the commercial viability of the project.

Potential Geothermal Commercial Area
type: Concept
in scheme: Petroleum Tenement Type
definition: QLD: If you discover commercial quantities of geothermal resources, you can apply to have an area of your exploration permit declared as a potential geothermal commercial area (PGA). This will allow you to evaluate the potential production and market opportunities for the resource. When an area is declared as a potential commercial area, it remains part of the exploration permit. The land must be brought into production through an application for a production lease within 5 years of the declaration or before the exploration permit expires. If you do not make an application for a lease within the accepted time frame, the potential commercial area lapses and the land ceases to be part of the exploration permit.
