Sumatra, Sunda Shelf, Natuna - Bibliography of Indonesia Geology

Sumatra volcanic arc activity, with sedimentation in fore-arc. Last event, contemporary with start of Andaman
Sea sea-floor spreading led to rise of Barisan Mts in Pleistocene and growth of Sumatran Fault System.

black vitreous coal (gas prone source rock), in upper part with brown algal rich coal and freshwater
carbonates, interpreted as ephemeral lake deposits. Overlain by 90m Brown Shale facies assemblage of
seasonally laminated paper shales, grey shales, red weathering shales, turbidites and gastropod coquinas.
Brown Shale excellent algal-rich, oil prone source rock (TOC 2.5- 8.9%, HI up to 743). Interpretation is
shallow lake deposition, different from previous deep lacustrine basin interpretations)

porosity in foram grainstones and coral boundstones. Platform facies thinner (50 m), tight limestone,
sandstone, and shale. Widespread gas-prone reservoirs in Peutu Lst. Exploration success depends on (1) field
size: presence of buildups critical for commercial accumulations and (2) gas composition: Peutu reservoirs
contain H2S (generally manageable) and CO2 (6- 82%). CO2 from thermal decomposition of carbonates,
highest where Peutu deeply buried and unconformably on Tampur dolomite or pre-Tertiary basement)
