Indonesia. Proc. 11th Ann. Conv. Indon. Petrol. Assoc., 1, p. 265-298.
(Productive M Miocene (zone N14) Besitang River sands in M Baong Fm, Aru area, N Sumatra, are turbidites
within marine shale sequence. Fluid properties and production performance encourage further potential in
structural and stratigraphic traps)

Langkat-Medan area, North Sumatra Basin. Proc. 13th Ann. Conv. Indon. Petrol. Assoc., p. 75-108.
(In N Sumatra basin favourable reservoirs in E Miocene Belumai Fm, but Pre-Belumai rocks, especially "Basal
Sandstone" strongly affected by diagnesis, have very low porosity, and should be considered "economic
basement". 'Basal Sandstone' belongs to Permo-Triassic-Jurassic Kualu Fm)

(Mobil exploration and appraisal program for Miocene pinnacle reefs in NSB area off N Sumatra. Up to 70
reefs mapped in area of 1800 km2 on Malacca Shelf. Twelve wells resulted in 8 discoveries. Gas reserves 2
TCF in four fields. Gas contains 1-15% H2S and 28-31% CO2)

Field, Malacca Strait PSC, Central Sumatra Basin, Indonesia. In: C.D. Atkinson et al. (eds.) Clastic rocks and
reservoirs of Indonesia: a core workshop, Indon. Petrol. Assoc., p. 37-57.
(Well MSBG-1 Early Miocene Lower Sihapas fluviodeltaic sands. Cored complete single parasequence
exhibiting a 110’ thick progradational cycle from delta front through tidal flat to distributary channel deposits
capped by channel abandonment facies. Sediments deposited in tide- dominated delta, with repeated stacking of
reservoir units. This is discovery well of Kurau Field with >150 MBO in place)

(Two types of geothermal systems in Sumatra (1) on the slope of volcanic edifices and (2) in pull-apart basins
along the Sumatran strike-slip fault zone. Thirteen pull-apart basins identified)

(Production rates at Pase A field controlled by tectonically induced fractures in tight limestone reservoir. Area
may have had transpressive deformation associated with oblique plate collision nearby. Much support for
dominantly compressional tectonic model, little evidence for strike slip after reservoir was deposited)
