Abstract

Identifying and determining paleotsunami deposits can be a vital tool for establishing the periodicity of earthquakes and their associated tsunami events beyond historical records. However, their deposits can be difficult to establish and to date. In this study, we used the characteristics of the 2006 Pangandaran tsunami deposit as a reference to identify paleotsunami deposits in Karapyak Beach, Pangandaran area, West Java, Indonesia. Similar to the 2006 Pangandaran tsunami deposit, the Karapyak Beach paleotsunami deposit is characterized by light brown loose sand materials overlying a dark brown paleosol layer with erosional contact. A thin layer of tsunami deposit, although varies in thickness, is locally found just above erosional contact. The deposit reveals non-laminated coarse grain size in the lower part that gradually changes into medium to fine sand in the upper part. The base of this lower part is rich with broken mollusc shells and corals. The mid to top of the lower part may contain several still-intact mollusc shells and corals, rock fragments, and anthropogenic products (roof tiles). Those types of fragments are absent in the upper part of this thin tsunami deposit. Grain size analysis shows a mixture of fine and coarse grains in the lower part of the 2006 tsunami deposits, as well as in the suspected paleotsunami deposits, suggesting an uprush of high energy flow during the sedimentation. The fining upward sequence above the mixed grain layers reflects a waning flow in pre-backwash deposition. Foraminifera analysis also shows a mixture of shallow and deep marine foraminifera in both recent tsunami and paleotsunami deposits. Based on the characteristics of the 2006 tsunami deposits, there are at least four paleotsunami deposits identified in Karapyak Beach, Pangandaran area.

Abstract

The ocean is a source of mega-biodiversity that is supposed to perform optimally for current and future generations. The health of the ocean must be evaluated by measuring heavy metals in sediment because they can be accumulated and stored in long term. This metal can be released and absorbed by an organism, and affect the ecological risk and human health. The purpose of this article is to share viewpoints and those in a comparative study in terms of the metal database of both countries, the UK and Indonesia. The methodology used in this paper is critical review and analysis to compare a success story about compiling metal data into a national database in the United Kingdom (UK). Indonesia already has an open public access database issued by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry. The further step is to strengthen collaboration between research institutes, universities, and government to assign a Standard Operational Procedure (SOP) to collect, analyze and report the data to a national depository. This database will be worthwhile to describe the pollution status in Indonesia and basic data for best practice decisions.

Abstract

Although numerous researchers have used trace fossils method to determine depositional environment, this method is still considered less robust. This is due to the finding of several similar trace fossils in two or more diverse environments, leading to irrelevancy in environmental interpretation. Therefore, we conducted this study in order to verify how powerful the trace fossil analysis is, by applying this method to interpret the depositional environment of the Cisaar Formation in the Cihanyir Tonggoh area, Sumedang Regency, West Java. We combined trace fossil study with foraminiferal assemblage analysis and vertical succession of related sedimentary units. For this study, 19 rock samples that have been collected from outcrop along 16 m traverse and 14 m measured stratigraphic sections were examined.The result of the study shows that shallow marine trace fossils which were developed at the edge of the shelf, were transported into the basin by gravitational mass flow and re-deposited as deep marine turbidites. Trace fossils were generally found in sandstones, while planktonic foraminifers were found in claystones-sandstones interbeds. This study concludes that to avoid inconsistency in the interpretation of the depositional environment, performing trace fossils method must be integrated with other methods, e.g. analysis of lithofacies and biofacies.

Abstract

INTA/B Field is one of the most producing mature fields in Widuri Area, Asri Basin, Offshore SE Sumatera, Indonesia, therefore it is subjected to rejuvenation to enhance hydrocarbon production. INTA/B Field is distinguished from other fields from its featured anticlinal structures that have the northeast-southwest trending. This structure is heavily faulted mainly in the up-thrown south side of a major normal fault. Two structural configurations with various oil-water contact have successfully been identified within the field. The most of oil reserves are preserved in the western lobe in which Intan-1 sands. One of the most important reservoirs in this field is Talangakar (TAF) sand deposited as a meandering river system that streamed from the northwest to the southeast within the basin. Two main reservoirs, Gita-34A and Gita-34B are correlated throughout the field and interpreted as Miocene fluvio-channel sands. These two channels are thickened moderately from southwest to northeast which has descriptions as follows: fine- to-coarse grains, unconsolidated to friable, and low cementing materials.INTA/B Field has been produced for 25 years and currently undergoing a watered-out phase. Therefore, an integrated study is subjected to overcome this issue for mature field rejuvenation. The integrated study ranged from geology (e.g., depositional environment and facies analysis), geophysics (e.g., revisiting and reprocessing of seismic attributes), petrophysical calculation, and reservoir engineering (e.g., water conformance plot and volumetric calculation).This integrated study has successfully rejuvenated a mature field resulting and added a significant number in oil production with an average of 300 BPOD/well. The extended project is estimated to have a similar result to the forward pilot.

Abstract

The study of the statistical analysis parameters of grain size in the waters of Sungai Raya was carried out in order to understand the characteristic of the sediment in the river and coastal areas. The grain size by sieving method, and analyze the statistical parameters including the average grain size, sorting, skewness, and kurtosis. Sediment samples were acquired from six stations with each station consisting of three sampling points representing river west bank, river midstream, river east bank, and the coastal area consisting of five stations. The results of the sediment analyses showed that the average grain size in the river ranges from 1.23 to 2.77 mm, and on the beach area is between 1,52 - 2,59 mm, classified as fine sand, medium sand, very fine sand, and coarse sand with predominant fine sand in all stations. The results of the statistical parameter analysis of the grain size of the bottom sediment in the waters of Sungai Raya exhibit the average diameter value ranging from 1.23 to 2.77 mm, classified as  fine sand to medium sand. This value indicates that the type of sediment in this location is dominated by silt with grain sizes ranging from < 0.05 - 0.002 mm. The sorting value ranges from 0.14 to 1.59 mm, categorized into moderately sorted, moderately well-sorted, very well sorted, and poorly sorted classes. The average value of skewness is 2.17 with the classification of the bed load being very fine and kurtosis value ranges from 0.72 to 1.67 indicates the classification in these waters is platycuric, mesokurtic, leptokurtic, and very leptokurtic. These finding concluded that in the study area there is a variation in the angularity of the sediment grains due to the different hydrodynamic processes
