BERITA SEDIMENTOLOGI aims to disseminate knowledge on the field of sedimentary geology to its readers. The journal welcomes contributions in the form of original research articles, review articles, short communications and discussions and replies. Occasionally, Berita Sedimentologi also includes field trip reports and book reviews, which are published only after going through peer-review processes. The main geographical areas of interest are Indonesia and SE Asia, however contribution from the rest of the world is also welcome. Berita Sedimentologi covers broad topics within sedimentary geology, particularly on depositional processes and their records in the rocks, petrology, sedimentology and stratigraphy of both siliciclastic and carbonate rocks; sequence stratigraphy, paleontology, biostratigraphy and sedimentary geochemistry. The journal also accepts articles on interdisciplinary research in sedimentary basin analysis, including large-scale basin geodynamics processes, mechanism of sedimentary basin formation, earth surface processes, sediment routing systems, petroleum geoscience and applied sedimentary geology analysis for mining and engineering geology.

Abstract

South Sulawesi is located in the centre of a complex tectonic region where Indo-Australian, Eurasian and Paific plates interact and collide. The Tacipi Formation was deposited during the middle Miocene to early Pliocene in an intra-arc or fore-arc setting. Facies distribution, diagenesis and hydrocarbon potential of these carbonate was strongly influenced by the tectonostratigraphic setting, faulting, subsidence and relative sea level changes.

Abstract

Natural fractured carbonate reservoir is extremely challenging in terms of reservoir characterization due to its high heterogeneity of reservoir property and also of its low oil recoveries. This paper will show how the integration of seismic data and well data had helped significantly for the well placement and also in the well completion stage.The datasets that are available and being used in this process are 3D seismic, seismic Inversion, seismic attributes, conventional log and borehole image log. All these data are being utilized in an integrated way to characterize the fractures behavior of the reservoir.

Abstract

Despite the potential of the Rembang zone mountain range is meagre compared to the Kendeng mountain range situated to the south, the Rembang Zone is still known to have archaeological potential. Research in the Rembang Zone in Blora and Rembang regencies have been conducted since 2005. This study aims to reveal the potential for prehistoric cave occupations in the two regencies, which are influenced by karst morphology and lithology. The biggest impact of the morphology and lithology is the lack of caves, rock shelters, or the formation of collapsed doline, which are adequate as prehistoric cave dwellings.

Abstract

Conoco Indonesia performed a one-day geological fieldtrip to Majalengka and Kadipaten, West Java in late November 2000. The trip was led by DR. Dardji Noeradi (ITB).Discussion below is a short observation of the outcrops seen in Cinambo with no intention to describe or interpret the details of the outcrops. It should be noted here that the short timing and condition during the fieldtrip was insufficient to further dig out geology of the area in more scientific manner. However, some critical points have been identified, two of them are, in fact, basic questions arose during and after the fieldtrip completed: (1) is there any turbidite sediments in Cinambo, and (2) how the sequences seen were deposited.To respond to there crucial questions above one need further investigation and deep observation. It may take at least three or four months in the field just to prepare at least a couple dozen, correlatable detailed measured sections, observe and collect sedimentary structures, with no model-driven at all in mind. Other months are to work in the laboratory to record lithology variations and changes through possibly of hundreds of thin sections of systemtic rock samples. This is not a rocket science. But why? Here it is.

Abstract

North Sumatra basin developed during the Early Tertiary (Eocene-Oligocene) as a result of an oblique subduction of the Indian Oceanic Plate underneath the Sundaland continental block. The basin is comprised of Tertiary to Recent sediments that were deposited over Pre-Tertiary basement. Typically, in many places basement consists of complex igneous and metamorphic rocks, but it is different in the North Sumatra basin. Underneath this basin, there are carbonates (dolomites or limestones) and sandstones including the Eocene Tampur Formation that have been called economic basement. Economic basement refers to rocks that have no economic prospectivity whilst the formation is comprised of the sedimentary deposits. The term economic basement in the North Sumatra Basin should be reconsidered because some data shows porosity development in pores and fractures, therefore making them potential reservoir that can receive hydrocarbon charge from proven petroleum system in the basin.

Abstract

Synrift sediments are currently a major focus of both academic research and industrial interest related to petroleum exploration, particularly with regard to their reservoir potential. Reservoirs are alluvial - fluvial deposits with a variety of sedimentary architectures. Their complexity requires good knowledge of basic sedimentology and use of outcrop analogies. The Brani Fm. of the Ombilin Basin has good outcrops that can be used as surface geology model. This paper uses measured outcrop data from the synrift, alluvial - fluvial sediments to characterize reservoirs, revealing that reservoir properties, such as porosities and permeabilities have wide ranges. Thicker sand body geometries in channel assemblages have good connectivity. Utilizing outcrop data is a useful analogue for the surrounding subsurface to tie into the geophysical data.

Abstract

As one of the most prolific basins in Indonesia, Kutai Basin has been well explored. A lot of research has been run and millions of dollars has been spent in order to have a better understanding the basin setting. One of the key aspects to understand the Kutai basin is to fully understand the modern Mahakam Delta, including its sedimentary source, depositional energy, reservoir behaviour and some other important aspects.The salinity study of modern Mahakam was performed as part of the regional study to understand the modern delta better. The Mahakam river waters were samples during the LSU (Louisiana State University) Mahakam Delta Study in 1994, whilst the project itself was funded by VICO Indonesia, UNOCAL and TOTAL Indonesie.

Abstract

A regional 2-D reconnaissance seismic survey, ArafuraSPAN™, provideS pre-stack depth images down to 40 km, allowing new interpretations of the basement structure and its influence on the overlying sedimentary cover of at least seven geological provinces. In the Arafura Sea, the new data have revealed an enormous two-part Proterozoic supracrustal section comprised of a some 15+ km thick Arafura Basin and an underlying additional 15+ km McArthur Basin equivalents. The stratigraphic thicknesses of these rocks make up virtually the entire crust under the Arafura platform. Stratiform reflections are interpretable to a depth of over 30 km, an imaging first and a game changer in terms of understanding the regional geological framework. The best available interpretation of this section is that it represents a peri-cratonic large igneous province of Proterozoic age, preserved as virtually the entire crust. In the Banda Sea, structural relationships between the Tanimbar accretionary prism, the Weber Deep, and the platform suggest that the Weber Deep initiated as a forearc extensional event the severed the accretionary prism from its hard volcanic core, and then evolved into a major basin within the Banda Basin. The Seram thrust belt is shown to lie above a strike-slip system that separates the Banda microplate from the Bird's Head, and forms the plate boundary in that area.

Abstract

A team was formed by the Indonesian Association of Geologist (IAGI) in early 2021 to revisit the Indonesian Stratigraphic Nomenclature which was issued in 1996. After 25 years many experts find that the document needs to be updated. The team is a mix of geologists with both academic and industry background. Several representatives from the Geological Agency who are involved in the Stratigraphic Lexicon document were also invited in the discussion. The team meeting was set on a regular basis to evaluate the existing nomenclature and look on areas for improvement. In each meeting the team will discuss a certain section of the nomenclature document. A three years work programme was set and reported on this article. In the first year the team will investigate areas for improvement, followed by revising necessary content in the second year. Implementation and promoting the nomenclature are planned for the third year.This short communication aims to engage a wider community on the process in revisiting the Indonesian Stratigraphic Nomenclature. Several examples of discussion topics in the meetings were included in this article. Readers will see potential areas for improvement and the team are open for suggestions.
