Abstract

DOI:10.17014/ijog.2.3.125-137This paper focuses on the Quaternary Baturetno Formation. An earlier research concluded that the black clay of the Baturetno Formation formed as a ‘palaeolake’ deposit. The ‘palaeolake’ was interpreted to form due to the shifting course of the Bengawan Solo Purba River in relation to Pliocene tectonic tilting in the southern Java. The stratigraphy of the Baturetno Formation was observed in the western part of the Baturetno Basin, and based on marker beds, the Baturetno Formation was classified into three units: (1) Gravel unit (GR) in the upper part, (2) clay unit (CU) in the middle part, and (3) sand-gravel unit (SG) in the lower part. There are floating gravel fragments of andesite, claystone, coral, and limestone with diameters of up to 10 cm in the clay unit. The particle size of sediment reflects the environment, but the lake deposition occurs under very quiet conditions. The occurrence of these fragments within the clay cannot be explained if the clay was deposited within a lake environment. The occurrence of floating fragments in the black clay of Baturetno Formation can best be explained through mudflow process. The cohesive strength of the mudflow is responsible for the ability of large fragments to float within the mud matrix. In general, the Baturetno Formation is inferred to be an alluvial fan deposit. The presence of sand, gravel, and mud are characteristics of alluvial fan deposits.

Abstract

Marine geological survey of the Ekspedisi Widya Nusantara 2016 was conducted in the Sumba Waters on 4 to 26 August 2016 using  Baruna Jaya VIII research vessel. The aim of this survey was to reveal the type and characteristics of the subsurface sediments of the Sumba Waters. A total of 13 samples were taken from the different depth in the subsurface bottom of the sea using grabbing methode with box corer. Grain size analysis were conducted using Mastersizer 2000 to understand the characteristics and the sediment type distribution. In general, the type of the subsurface sediment in the Sumba Waters is ranging from medium to very coarse sandy silt. Distribution of the subsurface sediments is correlated to depths. Grain size of the sediments in the Sumba Strait is coarser than in the western and southern of Sumba Island that directly connected to the Indian Ocean. Distribution of the subsurface sediment showing that the sediment, which are distributed further away from the coast is poorly sorted. The deposition of the subsurface-sea sediment is interpreted to represent a calm, and slow sedimentation mechanism under uniform suspension process.

Abstract

Rock unit crops out surrounding the Cipluk oil field is part of the Kerek Formation according to the regional geological map, however, the stratigraphy, depositional environment and relative age of the rock unit is not clearly recognised. Detailed stratigraphic and micropaleontological studies have been done in the rock unit surrounding the Cipluk of  oil field. The results show that the rock outcrops in the study area are composed by a repetition of marl intercalated by sandstones,identified as turbiditic facies part of a channel portion of supra fan lobe to outer fan that deposited in an upper bathyal. Based on planktonic foraminifera content, the relative age of rockunit is Pliocene to Late Pleistocene. According to the litological characteristics and relative age data, the rock unit in studied area seems to be not part of the Kerek Formation, but it belongs to part of the Kalibeng Formation. The result of this study is very important for updating the surface geological data in which will be very useful to understand the new petroleum system in this area. Keywords: Kerek Formation, Cipluk oil field, turbidite, Kalibeng Formation

Abstract

Marine geological survey of Ekspedisi Widya Nusantara (EWIN) LIPI 2016 was conducted by using RV Baruna Jaya VIII in the Sumba Waters from 4 to 26 August 2016. One of the aim of this survey is to understand the sea floor surface sediment characteristics and its influence to the benthic foraminifera distribution. Seven sediment samples were collected from sea floor surface in Sumba Strait, at the different location and depth using grabbing method with box corer. The samples have analyzed for the foraminifera content, sediment grain size, organic matter and carbonate content, and chemical element by XRF method. The living benthic foraminifera distribution increase to the east of the research area, which have higher content of the organic material and Fe, Rb, Zr, Zn and Sr elements in the sediment. The benthic foraminifera distribution most abundance founded at the depth of 800-1000 m with sediment types are sandy coarse silt  to sandy very coarse silt.Keywords: Benthic foraminifera, distribution, sea floor sediment, Sumba Strait. DOI: 10.33332/jgsm.2019.v20.1.17-26

Abstract

Study of beaches sediment characteristics were conducted on three beaches on Sumba Island, East Nusa Tenggara.The research is a part of Widya Nusantara Expedition which conducted by using Research Vessel of Baruna Jaya VIII. The aim of this study is to determine the characteristics of coastal deposits through the observation of grain size by using the grain size trend analysis approach (Grain Size Trend Analysis, commonly abbreviated as GSTA) and geochemical analysis. A total of 36 samples were taken on each coast representing high tide, transition and low tide along the coast. A grain size analysis was performed using a Malvern Mastersizer 2000 that was processed with Gradistat 4.0 software. Geochemical analysis was carried out using X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). The distribution of beach sediments is dominated by moderate sand - coarse sand and differences on content of geochemical elements (Ca, Sr, Fe, K, and Ti). The coastal conditions that are connected to the Indian Ocean (B1) have different characteristics from the beach that connected to the Sumba strait (B5 and B7). GSTA analysis showed sediment of Laboya Beach finer than sediment on Waikelo and Melolo Beach. Geochemical elements on Laboya Beach indicates different values than others. It indicates there are differences in the provenance and composition of sediment on the all three beaches. The supply of coastal deposits on these three beaches is influenced by the mechanism of precipitation of the walls and the processes of waves and rivers.Keywords: distribution, sediment, grainsize, geochemical, XRF, beach sediment.
