(Combined W Burma-W Sumatra ribbon-continent has Cathaysian E Permian fauna and flora similar to S
China and Vietnam. Evidence suggests it became separated in M-L Permian from E margin of Cathaysia as thin
continental sliver and by M Triassic had moved along transcurrent fault system around Indochina into present
position W of Sibumasu. In Miocene, two blocks were separated by formation of Andaman Sea)

(From E to W Malay Peninsula and Sumatra 3 continental blocks: (1) E Malaya with Cathaysian Permian
fauna and flora; (2) Sibumasu (W Malay Peninsula and E Sumatra) with glaciogenic Late Carboniferous-Early
Permian; (3) W Sumatra, also Cathaysian. Woyla nappe is intraoceanic arc, thrust over W Sumatra block in
mid-Cretaceous. Age of Sibumasu- East Malaya collision and destruction of Paleotethys Triassic? W Sumatra
block derived from Cathaysia and emplaced against Sibumasu W margin by dextral transcurrent faulting. E
Malaya block is part of Indochina block. W Burma block is extension of W Sumatra block, from which it
separated by formation of Andaman Sea in Miocene. Woyla nappe correlated with Mawgyi nappe of Myanmar)

(1972 Alur Siwah discovery looked like substantial gas accumulation. First few wells gas column >110m in E
Miocene Peutu Lst build up. OGIP estimated at 727 BCFG. Later wells found poor reservoir quality and OGIP
estimates plummeted to 195 BCFG. Subsequent 3D seismic and infill drilling indicates OGIP of 717 BCFG)
