Numerical modeling is one of the best ways to explain the characteristics and processes occurring in the estuary. However, the obtained model requires validation to ensure its accuracy despite the complexity added by variability in tidal and bathymetric conditions, making the validation process more challenging. This difficulty can be overcome by using high-resolution data, which provides a refined understanding of the river-to-sea estuary flow and its variability. The validation process involves the use of conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) instruments and mooring tidal stations. The validated model is considered capable of accurately simulating tidal propagation as it represents the temperature-salinity-density properties within the estuarine environment. The development of this model demonstrates the effective implementation of these parameters within the Musi estuary ecosystem domain. The 3D model simulation is used to consider the vertical discretization in the river-estuary-sea channel, which enhances the representation of temperature-salinity-density in the water column. The obtained results suggest that the 3D-MIKE modeling is well-suited for operational purposes, including the prediction of hydrodynamics and the management of estuarine areas, specifically in the Musi estuary ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":31610,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the Marine Geology","volume":" 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138959959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further analysis shows that there are special low-resistivity reservoirs in Widuri Area, especially in the Aryani field. This paper will discuss the low resistivity pay zone reservoirs and fluid containment of the intervals. The paper will also include further assesment this undeveloped interval to increase oil production, considering the upside potential of the reservoirs using current geological, geophysical, and reservoir engineering approaches.

The low-resistivity pay zone, a hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir in the Aryani field of the Widuri area, was identified using gas readings in the daily drilling reports, complemented with mud logging data. The Basal Sand interval, which drapes above the basement, was the site of the first producing well of Basal Sand, Aryani AC-X, preceded by a hydraulic fracturing job. Lambda-mu-rho inversion was implemented to delineate this reservoir. To recognize the potency in those wells, data reconfirmation was conducted between the elan summary, sidewall core, and cutting data.

In order to mitigate the cable from exposure because of currents, it is important to know a detailed understanding of the seabed and its mobility. Seabed characteristics, either textures or sediment structures, could be interpreted from acoustic characters, one of which is based on sidescan sonar images. An automatic interpretation to classify seabed characteristics can be done by using an image processing software. Image processing has been done on sidescan sonar images along power cable route between Dumai and Rupat Island. The image processing was using simple textures and Grey-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GCLM) textures. Manual interpretation of sidescan sonar images classifies the acoustic characters into six; (1) fine sand waves with ripple marks, wave length 2.5-4 meters, (2) fine sands, (3) fine sand waves with ripple marks, wave length 5-9 meters, (4) fine sand with ripple-mega ripples, (5) coarse sands with ripple-trawl marks, and (6) very fine sands. The results of automatic classification show that image processing with simple textures is unable to identify the textures and structures of sediments properly, but by combining simple texture classification and GCLM types of sediment textures and sediment structures are better identified. This classification results are in agreement with the results of manual interpretation of sidescan sonar images.","PeriodicalId":31610,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the Marine Geology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42086873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research aims to delineate sedimentary basins and interpret the geological subsurface based on gravity data using spectral analysis, highpass and lowpass filters, also 2D gravity modeling.

This study aims to analyze the land mass elevation of the small islands and the sub-bottom profiles in the eastern and western Halmahera waters. Island elevation data was obtained from Sentinel-2B imagery, whereas seafloor topographic data was acquired from direct field measurements using a GPS sounder. First, the image data underwent atmospheric, radiometric, and sunlight corrections, while the actual depth was estimated through bathymetry correction using tidal data. Then, QGIS version 3.16.6 and ArcGIS version 10.8 were used to analyze the data. The results show that the slope degree of volcanic islands is higher and their seafloor topography is steeper than that of coral islands. The slope degree of Ternate, Maitara, Tidore, and Hiri Islands, abbreviated as Termadoreh, is more than 30o with elevation of more than 100 meters, characterizing hilly islands. While there is only Pakal Island in Buli Bay that has a slope of 33o and the highest elevation of only 100 meters, it is nevertheless considered a flat island.
