Study of 98 crescent shape depressions over Alcock Rise, Andaman Sea were reported for the first time in between water depth -500 and -2000 m using multibeam swath bathymetry data. These gigantic depressions have crescent length (CL) varies from 600 to 3800 m and width (CW) varies from 200 to 2500 m with an average central depression of 500 m. Detailed parametric characterization reveals that slope and axial ratio of these crescentic structures have no direct relationship with general shape and steepness of their escarpment. Moreover, spatial distribution of these structures show a clustering of elongated crescent with higher crescent length to width ratio in NW margin of Alcock Rise compare to centre. This change in shape from open elliptical to semicircular depression probably suggests that earlier formed open crescents were modified at later stage to semicircular depressions. As observed in the seismic data, the formation of the crescentic depressions were initiated by the normal fault in-association with major dextral transform fault and subsequently its geometry was modified by local transpression along with seismicity induced slumping and bottom current scouring from the weaker zones. So, tectonics and bottom current activity provides simpler explanation for the formation of crescentic structure over Alcock Rise.Keywords: Crescentic depression, Alcock Rise, Swath bathymetry, Bottom current, Normal fault.

Placer deposits are physically accumulated by fluvial and marine processes in coastal area. Thirty six samples were selected from seventy seven samples of seafloor sediment of Singkawang waters. Those samples have been analyzed microscopically for heavy mineral contents. Based on this analysis, the heavy minerals can be divided into four groups: oxyde and hydroxyde, silicate, sulphide, and carbonate. The source of most heavy minerals in the study area is commonly formed by Felsic igneous rock and finally deposited on the seafloor sediments.

Subsurface Tertiary to Quaternary deposits from coast of Subi Kecil Island, Natuna Distric, Riau Archipelago Province, were imaged with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). The GPR survey was carried out by using GSSI Surveyor III/20 with 270 MHz and 40 MHz of 3200 MLF antennas. GPR data were processed using software GSSI’s RADAN for Windows NT™. The interpretation were done by using the radar facies as a groups of radar reflections. The GPR images of study area can be recoqnized in to several facies such as parallel, sub parallel, chaotic, oblique, mound and reflection-free. The calibration were done with geological data along the coast (cliff and outcrop). Unit A is the uppermost layer which is characterized by continous to non continous pararel reflection, srong reflector and high amplitude and is interpreted as alluvium deposits. Below the unit A is unit B which is characterized by non continous sub parallel, chaotic and mound reflector, strong reflector and high amplitude. Unit C and D (Mio-Oligocene) are overlain by unit A and B include chaotic, reflection-free and, locally, discontinuous parallel, oblique mound reflector radar facies, correlatable at the cliff face to massive sands, mostly representing near coastal deposits. These units are bounded by continuous, high amplitude reflections that can be easily correlatable throughout the GPR profiles, serving as important stratigraphic markers. The GPR survey may improve the reconstruction of the depositional environments through the recognition of massive and unconsolidated sand deposits within unit A and B (Holocene). The stratigraphic framework was also improved through the recognition of the discontinuity surface between Units C and D.

The study area is located in Balikpapan Bay, the connecting waters between Pancur village at the southwest and Balang Island at the northeast. The objective of study is to know the engineering properties of rock as a foundation groundwork of bridge. Result of seismic reflection interpretation profiles in the survey area indicates that the seismic sequences can be divided into two sequences, those are sequence A and B. Sequence A lies at the upper part, which is characterized by concordance, parallel, wavy and hummocky reflectors. Sequence B is characterized by mounded, chaotic and free reflectors. Sediment thickness obtained from seismic profiles show that Quaternary sediment is about 1.56 to 4.89 meters, while harder substrate thickness ranging between 7.03 and 21.60 meters. While, based on core drilling data, hard rock started to appear between 3 and 4 meters below seafloor with Standard Penetration Test (SPT) between 32 and 34 blows as Tertiary sediments. Based on field observation and correlated with geological map of Balang Island, Balikpapan Sheet, the hard rock proposed for base of bridge foundation is Balang Island Formation (Middle Miocene) that consist of claystone, sandstone and coal layers that have been deformated and start to form fold as anticline. The seismic record show that, the hard rock is interpreted as B sequence that underlain by Quaternary sediments.

Kepulauan Seribu is a well-known destination of marine tourism in Indonesia. Inevitably, the place has been affected by human activities. Hence it is important to preserve and conserve the area so as it is still suitable for reef community to grow and develop. One of the methods to evaluate the feasibility for reef environment is calculated by FoRAM Index (FI) values. Benthic foraminifera as a tool for environmental bioindicators were collected from 15 marine surface sediment samples in the vicinity areas of Kotok Besar, Kotok Kecil and Karang Bongkok islands in Kepulauan Seribu to assess the FI values. Approximately 20 genera of benthic foraminifera were found in the study area. The genera are dominated by Amphistegina and Calcarina along with Operculina, Quinqueloculina, Peneroplis, and Discorbis. The finding signifies reef flat environment as the dominant morphology, although the presence of fore slope is also observed particularly at the western part of Kotok Besar island. The assemblages of Operculina and Quinqueloculina suggest that the abundance of benthic foraminifera is influenced not only by the morphology of seafloor, but also by tidal current and terrestrial influence. The FI formula using foraminifers found in the study area results values above 4, thus the area can be reviewed as a decent environment for reef growth and development. Keywords: benthic foraminifera; bioindicator; FoRAM Index; coral community; seafloor morphology Kepulauan Seribu terkenal sebagai tujuan wisata laut di Indonesia, sehingga dapat dipastikan tempat ini dipengaruhi oleh aktifitas manusia. Oleh sebab itu sangat penting untuk menjaga dan melindungi kelestarian lingkungannya sehingga tetap cocok bagi komunitas karang untuk hidup dan berkembang. Salah satu metode untuk mengevaluasi kelayakan lingkungan terumbu adalah dengan menghitung nilai FoRAM Index (FI). Untuk analisis ini, foraminifera bentik dikoleksi dari 15 sampel sedimen permukaan laut dari daerah sekitar Pulau Kotok Besar, Kotok Kecil dan Pulau Karang Bongkok di Kepulauan Seribu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sekitar 20 genera foraminifera bentik yang ditemukan di daerah penelitian. Foraminifera didominasi oleh Amphistegina dan Calcarina, sedangkan jenis lain yang juga cukup berlimpah adalah Operculina, Quinqueloculina, Peneroplis, dan Discorbis. Hal ini menunjukkan lokasi penelitian memiliki jenis morfologi rataan karang sebagai morfologi dominan, walaupun kehadiran lereng karang (fore slope) juga teramati terutama pada bagian barat pulau Kotok Besar. Distribusi kelimpahan Operculina dan Quinqueloculina menunjukkan bahwa kelimpahan foraminifera bentik selain dipengaruhi oleh morfologi dasar laut juga dipengaruhi oleh pasang surut dan pengaruh terestrial. Hasil perhitungan FI berdasarkan foraminifera di wilayah penelitian menunjukkan nilai FI > 4 sehingga daerah ini dapat ditinjau sebagai lingkungan yang layak untuk pertumbuhan karang dan perkembangannya.

The discovery well with initial name “East Tarakan A-1†was drilled in February 2007 to a total vertical depth of 10,000 feet and encountered gas reservoir in Middle Miocene-age sands with deltaic sediment facies. The Field is structurally high, faulted to the Mengatal producing zones. This sandstone is hydrocarbon producer in most of onshore fields of Tarakan Island. “East Tarakan A†Field has been suppported with 19 (nineteen) 2D Seismic data. There are three wells i.e: East Tarakan A-1, A2b and A3 with several logs data, mud log and biostratigraphic data. The study aims are firstly to built 3D structural model from time and depth structural maps based on seismic interpretation and well log analysis, secondly to create 3D properties model especially volume shale (V-shale) to get sand distribution. The sand distribution model is supported by 3D structural model, petrophysical analysis and seismic attributes as well as geo-statistic method. Based on petrophysical analysis and wells correlation, sand reservoir interval of Middle Miocene (Meliat Fm) can be devided into two zones respectively top to bottom; zone-1 dan zone-2. RMS Amplitude analysis has been used to help constrain the sand distribution. Sand distribution with two zones indicates that sand distribution of zone-1 and zone-2 are generally located in distributary channel delta. NTG Distribution model of zone-1 and zone-2 indicates that reservoir zone distributed in distributary sand with trend of west to east. NTG of zone-1 is relatively better reservoir than the zone-2.

The Banda Arc which curves around through 180o is one of interesting features in Eastern Indonesia, a complex area resulting from convergence of Indo–Australia, Eurasia, and Pacific plates with a number of microplates involved. Its complexity has led to debates on how the U–shaped geometry was attained. This study investigates seafloor morphology and seismicity around the Seram Trough which may help to give an insight into the tectonic setting of the area. We further discuss each model proposed for the Seram Trough by previous authors. Generally, there are two views on how many slabs are subducting beneath the Banda Arc, either double slabs or single slab. The Seram Trough, which is often linked to the Timor–Tanimbar Trough enclosing the Banda Arc, was interpreted in different ways, with many models by many authors, as a subduction trench, an intraplate foredeep and a zone of strike–slip faulting. We argue that the most plausible explanation is a single slab model to explain the nature of the Banda Arc. The most plausible model for the Seram Trough is a foredeep model which is associated with exhumation processes on Seram and the deep feature was caused by a subsidence, led by loading by the fold–thrust belt. The Seram Trough is significantly different to common subduction systems. It has shallower bathymetry, is less than 3000 m in depth and is an almost aseismic zone. Keywords: Banda Arc, Buru Basin, convergence, fold–thrust belt, Seram Trough.Busur Banda yang melengkung 180o merupakan fitur menarik di Indonesia bagian timur, suatu area kompleks hasil konvergensi lempeng Indo–Australia, Eurasia dan Pasifik dengan beberapa lempeng mikro terlibat. Kompleksitasnya mengarah pada perdebatan bagaimana geometri ‘U’ terbentuk. Studi ini menginvestigasi morfologi dasar laut dan kegempaan disekitar Palung Seram yang dapat membantu memberikan wawasan tentang tatanan tektonik area tersebut. Kami juga mendiskusikan setiap model yang diajukan untuk Palung Seram oleh beberapa penulis sebelumnya. Umumnya, terdapat dua penjelasan tentang berapa jumlah lempeng yang menunjam dibawah Busur Sunda, antara dua lempeng atau satu lempeng. Palung Seram yang sering dihubungkan dengan Palung Timor-Tanimbar menyelubungi Busur Banda telah diinterpretasikan dengan beberapa model oleh beberapa penulis sebagai palung subduksi, foredeep dalam satu lempeng dan zona sesar mendatar. Kami mengajukan bahwa penjelasan yang memungkinkan adalah model satu lempeng dalam penjelasan keadaan Busur Banda. Model yang dapat diterima untuk Palung Seram adalah foredeep di depan sabuk sesar anjak dan lipatan yang berasosiasi dengan exhumation processes di Pulau Seram dan fitur yang dalam diakibatkan oleh subsidence akibat pembeban jalur sesar anjak dan lipatan. Palung Seram memiliki batimetri yang lebih dangkal, kurang dari 3000m dan merupakan zona aseismik.Kata kunci: Busur Banda, Cekungan Buru, konvergensi, jalur sesar anjak dan lipatan, Palung Seram.

Mineralization have been discovered on Tabuan Island, Semangko Bay, South Sumatera, Indonesia. Tabuan Island belongs to the Neogene Sunda-Banda magmatic arc system. Tabuan Island is a tectonic horst structure which belongs to the subduction-related, magmatically active Barisan zone along the active continental margin of western Sumatera. Basaltic-andesitic volcanics of the late Oligocene to earliest Miocene Hulusimpang Formation are distributed in a broad zone along and subparallel to the regional Semangko Fault and are hosts for several epithermal-style auriferous deposits. The occurrence of hydrothermal mineralization was first suggested from seismic identification of small intrusive bodies which form elongated northwest-southeast ridges passing through the island. Surface sampling campaigns on the island revealed significant hydrothermal alteration and mineralization with pervasive occurrences of sulphide minerals. Detailed mineralogical and geochemical studies at the Federal Institute for Geoscience and Natural Resources show pronounced disseminations and vein-type mineralization. Mineralization shows moderate enrichments in Au, Ag, Zn, Pb, Cu, As, Sb, Ba, and Mn. The association of subaerial island arc volcanism and subvolcanic intrusive bodies, the regional extensional and strike-slip structural regime, and the occurrence of epithermal-style alteration and mineralization in the same volcanic sequence along the coastal zone of Semangko Bay and on Tabuan Island reveal the great potential of this region for epithermal type Au-Ag and base metal deposits. On Tabuan Island, delineation of structural blocks and fault systems suggests that normal faults and margins of grabens may have acted as fluid channelling structures.
