The 2dF-XMM Wide Angle Survey includes one of the largest samples of spectroscopically identified AGN assembled so far. This sample contains more than 700 objects identified as type-1 AGN and for which medium resolution optical spectra are available. The large number of type-1 AGN with 2dF optical spectra available in our sample has allowed us to start a statistical analysis of the optical broad emission line properties of the objects with optical spectra with the best signal to noise ratio. Our large sample of sources, extending to redshifts up to ˜3, allows us to study the dependence of the optical emission line properties of type-1 AGN over a broad range of intrinsic X-ray luminosities. A significant fraction of our type-1 AGN cover the redshift interval with spectroscopic coverage to the [OIII]λ5007 emission line which is believed to originate in the narrow line region (NLR) and therefore it is considered to be a good indicator of the intrinsic luminosity of AGN. The [OIII]λ5007 observed emission line properties, such as its luminosity distribution for our X-ray selected type-1 AGN will be presented.
