Abstract:
Indonesia’s maritime boundary with India, lying barely 100km from Banda Aceh, appears quiet and of little interest to policy-makers, in contrast to almost all the other contested boundaries with Malaysia, China, the Philippines, and Australia. India’s historical relations with Sumatra have also drawn less scholarly or popular attention than those with the Arab, Persian, and Turkish worlds, or with Java, the Peninsula, and China. It is one of the imbalances and justifying the “Indian Ocean’ in the title of International Centre for Aceh and Indian Ocean Studies. It is also supported by arguing that northern Sumatra’s most important historical relationship outside Sumatra itself was for long with India. The time must come when this neighbourly maritime relationship is normalised in the context of improving Indonesia-India ties.

Abstract:
The 1998 Reformation Movement, which was led by students, was a social movement that had an impact on social and political changes in Indonesia in the following period. In the midst of the dryness of the study and writing of the history of the 1998 Reformation Movement, this paper will look at how the dynamics of students at the local level welcomed this movement through the eyes of local history. This study aims to describe the roots of the 1998 Reform Movement in Indonesia and then highlight the dynamics of students at the local level in West Sumatra in the 1998 Reform Movement. This study uses a historical research method consisting of four stages of activity in the form of heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The results showed that West Sumatran students were highly sensitive to the socio-political problems that engulfed the Indonesian nation at that time. As intellectuals, students respond to this issue by holding meetings, free pulpits, and holding demonstrations to criticize the government's policies and attitudes which are considered slow in solving the nation's problems. To facilitate coordination and consolidation of the movement, students formed the West Sumatera Student Communication Forum (FKMSB), which later became an important forum in gathering the strength of the students movement in West Sumatra during the transition period.Gerakan Reformasi 1998 yang dimotori oleh kalangan mahasiswa merupakan sebuah gerakan sosial yang berdampak terhadap perubahan sosial dan politik Indonesia pada periode berikutnya. Di tengah keringnya kajian dan penulisan sejarah Gerakan Reformasi 1998, maka tulisan ini akan melihat bagaimana dinamika mahasiswa di tingkat lokal menyambut gerakan ini melalui kacamata sejarah lokal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguraikan akar Gerakan Reformasi 1998 di Indonesia, dan kemudian menyoroti dinamika mahasiswa pada tingkat lokal di Sumatera Barat dalam Gerakan Reformasi 1998 tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian sejarah yang terdiri dari empat tahapan kegiatan berupa heuristik, kritik sumber, interpretasi, dan historiografi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa Sumatera Barat memiliki sensitivitas yang tinggi atas permasalah sosial politik yang sedang melanda bangsa Indonesia ketika itu. Sebagai kalangan intelektual mahasiswa merespon isu tersebut dengan mengadakan pertemuan, mimbar bebas, hingga melakukan demonstrasi dalam rangka mengkritis kebijakan dan sikap pemerintah yang dinilai lamban dalam menyelesaikan persoalan bangsa. Untuk memudahkan koordinasi dan konsolidasi gerakan, mahasiswa membentuk Forum Komunikasi Mahasiswa Sumatera Barat (FKMSB) yang kemudian menjadi wadah penting dalam menghimpun kekuatan gerakan Mahasiswa di Sumatera Barat selama masa transisi tersebut.

Abstract:
This paper is about the history of the spread of Islam in Bengkulu region, Indonesia. Sumatra is the sixth islands of the world and the third islands of Indonesia in size after Borneo and Papua. Bengkulu is located in the south of Sumatra. The Arab civilization and cultural relics in Indonesia were numerous, especially in the Bengkulu region of Sumatra. These effects were in fact derived from the power of the Islamic religion. One of the objectives of this research is to highlight the efforts of Arab and Indonesian scholars in spreading Islam in the Bengkulu region, and to clarify the history of Bengkulu before the introduction of Islam, which began with the entry of the monastic buddies during the era of King Ajay Brinah Sikalawi Libung. These are the following questions: How was the life of the people of Bengkulu before the introduction of Islam? What are the Arab cultural and cultural monuments in Bengkulu? To answer these questions, we relied on the descriptive approach.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper addresses a chapter of Third World church history and the need for an ecumenical perspective in the study of church history. Ludwig I. Nommensen is a part of the history of the church in Indonesia. He - like other Western missionaries - has identified himself with the Batak people of Sumatra in unfailing dedication. His life and work in Sumatra have been of great impact. In the memory of Indonesian Christians he lives on as the venerated "apostle of the Batak." In Europe, the region of his origin, however, his legacy has as yet to be interpreted more widely. Nommensen, the Westerner, has lived "solidarity as a missionary principle." In this approach to the mission of the church he has built a bridge between Christians in Indonesia and in Europe. Moreover, in the encounter between European and Indonesian cultures and religions, Nommensen's ideas and the Batak Christianity can contribute to a relevant partnership of churches, and to a renewed understanding of the apostolate of the church.

Abstract:
Some research states that the earliest pesantren established in Indonesia since the 13th century in Sumatra and the 15th century in Java. In Sumatra it was marked by the progress of the Lamreh Kingdom in the Barus area, while in Java it was marked by the existence of Wali Singo. However, if we examine the history of the existence of Islam in the archipelago, which is believed since the beginning of Islam in the 7th century, it is necessary to trace the possibility of the formation of pesantren before the 13th century. With this method, the author succeeded in formulating 4 indicators of the possibility of the formation of pesantren, namely sima land as a special area of ??religious institutions, figures with high-level terms and books that are familiar among the population, progress of the Islamic empire and extensive Islamization, and indications of pesantren genealogy from some other terms. From these 4 indications, pesantren existed since the 10th century in Leran Manyar Gresik village

Abstract:
<div><div><p class="Els-history-head">Drug abuse is a problem that affects almost every country in the world including Indonesia. In the long term, it has the potential to disrupt competitiveness, weaken national resilience, and can hinder the progress of a nation. North Sumatra is a province that has the highest prevalence of drug abusers in Indonesia, which none of the villages in this Province is free from drug abuse. The North Sumatera Province also has the highest number of drug abusers undergoing rehabilitation at the BNN Rehabilitation Center. The use of geospatial technology can help understand the phenomenon of drug abuse by area or spatial. One of the geospatial technology that commonly uses is the Geographic Information System (GIS). This study aims to show that GIS can be used in mapping drug-prone areas in North Sumatra based on North Sumatran people undergoing drug rehabilitation. The method used is a retrospective based on secondary data and spatial statistics in GIS. The environment prone to drug abuse based on the number of people undergoing drug rehabilitation at the BNN Rehabilitation Center from North Sumatra is divided into 3 zones based on the number of clients distributed in BNN Rehabilitation Center, namely red, yellow and green. Red zone 3 cities/districts namely Deli Serdang, Medan, and Binjai with 9 sub-districts namely Percut Sei Tuan, Medan Amplas, Medan Helvetia, Medan Tembung, Medan Perjuangan, Binjai Utara, Medan Sunggal, Medan Johor, Medan Timur. The yellow area has 25 districts, the green area is 103 districts. In a conclusion, the Geographic Information System (GIS) is a technology that can be used to map drug-prone areas.</p></div></div>

Abstract:
This study explores the history of the Toba Batak community in the city of Medan from1912 to 1965. The Toba Batak have traditionally lived in the rural interior highlands ofSumatra. In this region, their specific ethno-religious identity was developed. Thecrucial factor in the process was the activities and the theological convictions of theGerman Rhenish mission on which the Toba Batak themselves had a significant impact. During the first few decades of the 20th century the Toba Batak began to migrate to the plantation region on the east coast of Sumatra and its commercial entrepôt Medan.In this region, where the Malay Muslim culture was the local dominant culture, theystrove to fulfil their cultural ideals, among which the ideal of harajaon (kingdom) iscentral. The main analytical question pursued is: How did the Toba Batak ethno-religious identity develop in Medan, within the framework of the ethnic, religious, social andpolitical currents in the city? This question is analysed in terms of their changing relations to their area of origin,the interaction with other groups in Medan and the efforts of the Toba Batak to buildup their own organisations. The main focus is on the development of Christiancongregations, but the analysis also takes voluntary, political and women's organisationsinto account. The changing conditions for local ecumenical co-operation are alsoexplored. A wide selection of sources is used, such as missionary reports and correspondence, Dutch colonial records and Toba Batak written and oral sources. Most of these sources have not or only partly been employed in previous research.

Abstract:
Indonesia is a developing country that suffers from earthquakes and windstorms and where at least 60% of houses are non-engineered structures, built by unskilled workers using masonry and timber. The non-engineered housing units developed in urban region are also vulnerable to seismic hazard due to the use of low quality of material and constructions method. Those structures are not resistant to extreme lateral loads or ground movement and their failure during an earthquake or storm can lead to significant loss of life. This thesis is concerned with the structural performance of Indonesian low-rise buildings made of masonry and timber under lateral seismic load. The research presented includes a survey of forms of building structure and experimental, analytical and numerical work to predict the behaviour of masonry wall and traditional timber frame buildings. Experimental testing of both masonry and timber have been carried out in Indonesia to establish the quality of materials and to provide material properties for numerical simulations. The experimental study found that the strength of Indonesia-Bali clay brick masonry are below the minimum standard required for masonry structures built in seismic regions, being at least 50% lower than the requirement specified in British Standard and Eurocode-6 (BS EN 1996-1-1:2005). In contrast, Indonesian timber materials meet the strength classes specified in British Standard/Eurocode- 5 (BS EN 338:2009) in the range of strength grade D35-40 and C35).Structural tests under monotonic and cyclic loading have been conducted on building components in Indonesia, to determine the load-displacement capacity of local hand-made masonry wall panels and timber frames in order to: (1) evaluate the performance of masonry and timber frame structure, (2) investigate the dynamic behaviour of both structures, (3) observe the effect of in-plane stiffness and ductility level, and (4) examine the anchoring joint at the base of timber frame that resists the overturning moment. From these tests, the structural ductility was found to be less than two which is below the requirement of the relevant guidelines from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, USA (FEMA-306). It was also observed that the lateral stiffness of masonry wall is much higher than the equivalent timber frame of the same height and length. The experimental value of stiffness of the masonry wall panel was found to be one-twelfth of the recommended values given in FEMA-356 and the Canadian Building code. The masonry wall provides relatively low displacement compared to the large displacement of the timber frame at the full capacity level of lateral load, with structural framing members of the latter remaining intact. The weak point of the timber frame is the mechanical joint and the capacity of slip joint governs the lateral load capacity of the whole frame. Detailed numerical models of the experimental specimens were setup in Abaqus using three-dimensional solid elements. Cohesive elements were used to simulate the mortar behaviour, exhibiting cracking and the associated physical separation of the elements. Appropriate contact definitions were used where relevant, especially for the timber frame joints. A range of available material plasticity models were reviewed: Drucker-Prager, Crystalline Plasticity, and Cohesive Damage model. It was found that the combination of Crystalline Plasticity model for the brick unit and timber, and the Cohesive Damage model for the mortar is capable of simulating the experimental load-displacement behaviour fairly accurately. The validated numerical models have been used to (1) predict the lateral load capacity, (2) determine the cracking load and patterns, (3) carry out a detailed parametric study by changing the geometric and material properties different to the experimental specimens. The numerical models were used to assess different strengthening measures such as using bamboo as reinforcement in the masonry walls for a complete single storey, and a two-storey houses including openings for doors and windows. The traditional footing of the timber structures was analysed using Abaqus and was found to be an excellent base isolation system which partly explains the survival of those structures in the past earthquakes. The experimental and numerical results have finally been used to develop a design guideline for new construction as well as recommendations for retrofitting of existing structures for improved performance under seismic lateral load.

Abstract:
This project is a diplomatic transcription and English translation of a passage from an 18-century manuscript that chronicles a remarkable Portuguese embassy to China (Macau). The embassy embarked from Lisbon in February 1752, sailing in a luxuriously outfitted ship (Nossa Senhora da Conceição e Lusitânia Grande), in convoy with a warship (Nossa Senhora das Brotas). The English translation is important because it makes the account accessible to scholars who lack familiarity with Portuguese.This voyage to China is remarkable in light of the long history of maritime loss by the Portuguese. Although the normal projected loss of life on this route was 20%, this journey was made without one death. Some of the most fascinating aspects of the journey include the following: a) how the intrepid crew of the Nossa Senhora (most of whom were novices) and the passengers dealt with bad weather at sea; b) the religious rites conducted during the voyage by Jesuit priests en route to the Far East missions, which the passengers firmly believed mitigated the dangers and were thus responsible for their safe journey; c) the intriguing political maneuvering between the Portuguese and Chinese in Macau; and d) the meticulous descriptions of the different cultures, peoples and places encountered on the journey.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis is concerned with the nature of royal authority in the Sumatran inland kingdom of Minangkabau in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It takes as its point of departure the problem posed by early European perceptions of that authority. European contacts were with the coasts of Sumatra. The Minangkabau heartland, behind its mountain barrier, appeared remote and inaccessible. The Dutch, following on the heels of the Portuguese in the seventeenth century, were contemptuous of the rulers of Minangkabau, describing them as powerless - as kings in word only and not in deed. This view has been repeated by many subsequent observers, some of whom have spoken of the sacral or the symbolic nature of Minangkabau claims. The thesis will argue that the Minangkabau kings were far from being mere figureheads or possessors of merely symbolic authority. They provided a focus for unity extending far beyond the inland centre of the kingdom and were a means of mobilizing a supra-nagari identity. The use of the king’s name by his subjects in the rantau, royal intervention in local movements of resistance to the Dutch and the creation of an extended communications network combined to indicate the presence of genuine political substance. The Dutch had to come to terms with that force and themselves found it useful, on occasion, to rely on the king’s name. Attention is given to the details of Dutch contacts with coastal regions, to their initial contacts with the inland court itself and to the development of movements of resistance to the VOC. The cultural encounter embodied in these early contacts is approached through a study of the VOC archives which are read for the light they throw on Dutch perceptions and expectations as well as for the events they report. Central to the argument of the thesis is the view that the king’s power lay, to a considerable extent in the language of royal communication and in the substance given by his subjects to the signs of his authority. Attention is given in detail, therefore, to a range of royal letters. Many of these are to be found in Dutch translation in the archives of the VOC. These have been studied in the context of a corpus of manuscript Malay letters from the nineteenth century which were discovered in the course of research for the thesis. The study of the words and the format of these letters enables conclusions to be drawn about Minangkabau perceptions of authority and about its substance. A semiotic approach to the communicative process rather than one which focusses on the institutional structure of the Minangkabau state, it is argued, can throw significant light on the meaning of Minangkabau kingship during this period.

AbstractThe history of Aceh, Indonesia highlights societies’ resilience and vulnerability in the face of natural and human-made disasters. A multi-scalar, qualitative and quantitative analysis of land use changes in nineteenth century Greater Aceh by using GIS analysis, highlights that processes may play out differently at the system and subsystem levels. At the system’s meso and micro levels, the episodic and the structural violence of war, climate anomalies, and tsunamis wiped out entire communities and families of people, animals, and plants while at the macro scale Aceh society showed remarkable resilience. Greater Aceh’s case also suggests that the impact of war through population displacement and the destruction of such environmental infrastructure as homes, villages, orchards, and irrigated fields while less immediately and directly destructive than such episodic events as the devastating 2004 tsunami, nevertheless may have a comparable impact because the events are more sustained and cumulative over a timeframe of years and decades.

Abstract:
The Islamization of Southeast Asia resulted in a distinct Malay-Muslim culture combining the universalist dimensions of a religious doctrine with a global reach and the cultural particularities of the region (language, local practices). Recent discoveries of new text material and archaeological evidence have pushed the emergence of this civilization back in time. Key elements of the chapter’s narrative are the emergence of Muslim states in the archipelago, and the active participation of diasporic groups from the Middle East, cosmopolitan figures from insular Southeast Asia, and mediators from South Asia in the further Islamization of maritime Southeast Asia. It also provides the argument for challenging the frequent dismissal of Islam in Indonesia as a ‘thin veneer’ over older religious deposits of indigenous or Indian origin, a misconception that was later corroborated by anthropological research in the 1980s. Throughout this time frame, the Indian Ocean continues to act as a conduit for the ‘global circulation of ideas’ and the emerge of sophisticated intellectual milieus in Sumatra and Java

Abstract:
Increasing frequency and higher intensity of trans-regional contacts across the Indian Ocean in the course of the 19th century also helped turning Islam into a tool of resistance. The account will begin with the challenge of local power structures in South Sumatra by returning Hajjis inspired by the Wahhabi capture of Mecca and Medina in the early 1800s, resulting in the Padri Wars. This foreshadowed a changing of the guards of the leadership of anti-colonial activities after the Java War of the 1830s, when aristocrats were replaced by religious figures as resistance leaders. Coincidental with the high imperialism of the industrial age, technological advances making traffic between Indonesia and the holy places easier, thus accelerating the arrival of ideas associated with Islamic reformism and modernism. The political translation of these ideas into Panislamist ideologies and the hybrid religious nationalism of ‘Islamic nationhood’ were met with fierce repression on the part of the Dutch Indies colonial authorities. The chapter ends by pointing out that in the same period we also find the roots of the separatism in Aceh which would continue into the independence era.

Abstract:
At 00.58 GMT (7.58 local time) on Sunday, 26 December 2004 a massive earthquake occurred off the north-west coast of Sumatra. The earthquake measured between magnitude 9.0 and 9.3 on the Richter scale with its epicentre at 3.32oN, 95.85oE, and occurred at a depth of approximately 30 kilometres. It was the second largest earthquake recorded since instrumental records began and was the deadliest natural disaster in recorded history. The earthquake and the resulting tsunami are estimated to have killed at least 228,000 people across fifteen countries bordering the Indian Ocean. The worst affected countries were Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, Burma, the Maldives, and Somalia. The earthquake occurred on the subduction zone interface between the down-going Indian Ocean plate and the overriding Burma–Andaman–Sumatra plate. It ruptured approximately 1600 kilometres’ length of the plate boundary from Sumatra all the way north to the Burmese coast, travelling at 2–3 kilometres per second. Aftershocks continued unrelentingly for over four months after the earthquake, several reaching magnitude 7.5 as far north as the northern Andaman Islands. The seismic waves indicated a thrust fault earthquake that tilted the surface up to the south-west and down to the north-east. The ground surface was elevated as much as 11 metres at the epicentre, with the tilted surface sinking up to one metre further to the north-east, offshore Sumatra. During the rupture, the Burma plate slipped as much as 15 metres horizontally as the Indian Ocean plate slipped beneath. The force of the quake perceptibly shifted the Earth’s axis, raised sea level globally and speeded Earth’s rotation. It has been suggested that the earthquake shortened the length of the day by 2.68 microseconds, because of the decrease in oblateness of the Earth. The earthquake caused the Earth to wobble on its axis by up to 2.5 cm in the direction of 145o east longitude. The natural ‘Chandler wobble’, a small motion in the Earth’s axis of rotation (the motion that occurs when the spinning object is not a perfect sphere) can be up to 9 metres over 433 days, so this eventually offsets the comparatively minor wobble produced by the earthquake.

Abstract:
This article focuses on the Norwegian missionary and nurse Thora Wedel Jarlsberg (1863–1930) and her transnational career in Sumatra, Indonesia, and Kurdish regions in the Ottoman Empire from c. 1890 to 1915. Wedel Jarlsberg’s transnational experience began early in life. She was trained as a deaconess in Germany, where she worked for German missions and developed and maintained deep personal ties to Germany throughout her life. As a Protestant missionary, her working life was characterized by many years living in non-Western cultures, learning local languages and depending on interaction with the local population, while and at the same time relying on funding and spiritual support from Christians in Norway. The article looks at how her religious calling and training as a deaconess influenced interactions with cultures as different as colonial Indonesia and Ottoman Kurdistan. Vitally important here is Wedel Jarlsberg’s capacity for cultural interaction and change within various contexts and cultural (and gendered) hierarchies. This in addition to the roles of evangelical (German and Norwegian) transnational networks in cultural translations and global communication streams. The article also looks at Wedel Jarlsberg as a return migrant to Norway and her strategies for cultural and religious influence in the newly independent Norwegian nation.

Abstract:
In order to classify volcanic eruptions and their potential effects on the atmosphere, Newhall and Self (1982) proposed a scale of explosive magnitude, the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI), based mainly on the volume of the erupted products (and the height of the volcanic eruption column). VEI’s range varies from VEI = 0 (for strictly non-explosive eruptions) to VEI = 8 (for explosive eruptions producing ∼1012 m3 bulk volume of tephra). Eruption rates for VEI = 8 eruptions may be greater than 106 m3s−1 (Ninkovich et al., 1978a, 1978b). Eruptions also differ in the amounts of sulphur-rich gases released to form stratospheric aerosols. Therefore, the sulphur content of the magma, the efficiency of degassing, and the heights reached by the eruption column are important factors in the climatic effects of eruptions (Palais and Sigurdsson, 1989; Rampino and Self, 1984). Historic eruptions of VEI ranging from three to six (volume of ejecta from <1 km3 to a few tens of km3) have produced stratospheric aerosol clouds up to a few tens of Mt. These eruptions, including Tambora 1815 and Krakatau 1883, have caused cooling of the Earth’s global climate of a few tenths of a degree Centigrade (Rampino and Self, 1984). The most recent example is the Pinatubo (Philippines) eruption of 1991 (Graf et al., 1993; Hansen et al., 1996). Volcanic super-eruptions are defined as eruptions that are tens to hundreds of times larger than historic eruptions, attaining a VEI of 8 (Mason et al., 2004; Rampino, 2002; Rampino et al., 1988; Sparks et al., 2005). Super-eruptions are usually caldera-forming events and more than twenty super-eruption sites for the last 2 million years have been identified in North America, South America, Italy, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, Kamchatka, and New Zealand. No doubt additional super-eruption sites for the last few million years exist (Sparks et al., 2005). The Late Pleistocene eruption of Toba in Sumatra, Indonesia was one of the greatest known volcanic events in the geologic record (Ninkovich et al., 1978a, 1978b; Rampino and Self, 1993a; Rose and Chesner, 1990).

Abstract:
The three-way collision of the Indo-Australian, Eurasian and Pacific plates have resulted in Southeast Asia being the most tectonically complex region on Earth. This is particularly true for Offshore Aceh’s Andaman Sub-Basin, which has undergone complex late Eocene-Recent evolution. Despite a long history of hydrocarbon exploration and production, data scarcity in the offshore means that the Sub-Basin’s regional tectonics and structural framework have been poorly understood. Pre-1996 2D seismic data were low-fold and low-offset, however the 2019 PGS (NSMC3D) regional 3D survey imaged the entire Cenozoic sequence, enabling the delineation of a high-resolution tectonic framework for the first time. Integration of interpretations drawn from geophysical datasets with a 2019 biostratigraphy study has refined the ages of critical sequence boundaries and advanced the understanding of major structural elements. GEM™, the Geognostics Earth Model, has been used to place these interpretations in a regional tectonic and kinematic context using a series of high resolution plate animations. Andaman Sub-Basin formation initiated in response to the northward motion of India and collision with Eurasia, suturing the West Burma and Sibumasu Terranes through the middle-late Eocene. Continued northward motion of the Indo-Australian Plate resulted in further subduction along the Sunda Trench with associated oblique back-arc extension in present-day onshore and offshore Java and Sumatra. Concurrent rotation of Sundaland, with sinistral strike-slip motion along the Ranong and Khlong Mauri fault zones, resulted in the two rifting phases within the late Eocene (~40Ma) to early Oligocene in the Andaman Sub-Basin. Significant inversion events at 30Ma and 23Ma formed in response to dextral transpression associated with rotational extrusion of Indochina and Sundaland. Rapid subsidence followed the 30Ma inversion, resulting in a switch to post-rift sag and bathyal conditions during which turbidites infilled seabed topography. The onset of dextral strike slip between the West Burma Terrane along the Saigang fault system occurred at ~26Ma, causing transtension in the Andaman Sub-basin that terminated at 23Ma. At approximately 5Ma inversion and toe thrusts developed along the Sub-Basin’s southern margin due to uplift within the Barisan mountains. Refinement of the tectonic model, integrated with updated biostratigraphic and geochemical models, resulted in a revised tectono-stratigraphy for the Andaman Sub-Basin, which provides a predictive depositional model in which paleogeography and structural reactivation can be understood in a regional context.

Abstract:
Biomarker analyses can provide information about the source of organic matter, depositional environment, and maturity of source rock that is very useful for basin evaluation and understanding the petroleum system. In this paper, the study focuses on biomarker characterization of the Kelesa Formation that is situated in the Central Sumatra Basin, one of the petroliferous basins in Indonesia. This Eocene formation is equivalent to the Pematang Formation that is well known as acting as source rock in the Central Sumatra Basin. Thirty fresh outcrop samples were taken for biomarker analysis, with specification fourteen samples for gas chromatography and sixteen samples for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The gas chromatography analysis was done with a Perkin Elmer Clarus 600 type instrument while the mass spectrometry was done using a Perkin Elmer Clarus SQ 8C instrument. The results show that the organic matter dominantly comes from terrestrial plants with minor input from planktonic algae. Moreover, possible Botryococcus braunii input in the sediment suggests that the Kelesa Formation has been deposited in a lacustrine environment. Since the Kelesa Formation was deposited in a lacustrine environment, this formation is expected to be highly oil-prone source rock. The maturity biomarker indicators suggest that the formation does not reach appropriate maturity to expel hydrocarbon. However, the formation still has very good potential for oil shale resources. This study supports the previous study in the Kelesa Formation, and improves the understanding of the depositional history of the Kelesa Formation and the potential of the Kelesa Formation as oil shale resources. Moreover, the authors hope that this study can support recent basin evaluation and improve the understanding of the petroleum system in the Central Sumatra Basin.

Abstract:
One-dimensional and two-dimensional basin modeling can be used to infer the burial history, hydrocarbon generation, and migration of hydrocarbon. In this paper, the study focuses on 1D and 2D basin modeling in North Sumatera Offshore as one of the prolific deep-water basins in Indonesia. The data consists of 5 exploration wells and 2D seismic data that are vitrinite reflectance, rock-eval data, and bottom-hole temperature. Well data’s have been used to calibrate heat flow and thermal evolution of the basin, while 2D seismic data have been used to support the basin modeling. Based on the result, the basin formed by the collision of the Australian Plate with the Eurasian Plate evolved due to block faulting that caused a pull-apart basin. In the Early Oligocene, changes in the movement of the Indian plate also changed tectonics from subduction to strike-slip fault resulting in Andaman Sea rifting. The southern part of the research area was affected by the Andaman Sea rifting, which caused unconformities in the Middle Miocene. The main generating source rock is the Bampo, Belumai, and Baong Formation, which is predominantly consist of Type III kerogen (gas prone) in the north and Type II/III (mix oil and gas prone) in the South. The timing of petroleum generation may have occurred is in the Early Pliocene. The Early oil generation which occurred simultaneously with the seal rock and may have been migrated to the Middle and Late Miocene reservoir through the faults as a vertical migration pathway. The results of this study allow us to improve the hydrocarbon prospect and reduce exploration risks.

Abstract:
Abstract XJN field has implemented water injection as pressure maintenance since 1987, only one year after initial production. XJN is carbonate reservoir with weak aquifer underlying the oil zone. Initial reservoir pressure was 2,700 psi and peak production was 27,000 BOPD. Reservoir pressure was drop to 1,800 psi within 5 years of production. During 1991-2007, better injection management was performed to provide negative voidage. This action has managed to bring reservoir pressure back to its initial pressure, eventually enabling all wells to be converted from gaslift to naturalflow. In 2013, watercut has increased to 97% and several naturally flowing wells began to ceased-to-flow, then production mode was changed gradually from naturalflow to artificial lift using Electric Submersible Pump (ESP). In 2017-2020, there was rapid reservoir pressure decline around 300 psi/year while XJN water injection performance considered flawless. Voidage Replacement Ratio (VRR) was 1.3, but reservoir pressure was kept declining. This situation will cause ESP pump off on producer wells which in turn means big production loss. This paper will elaborate about the simple-uncommon-yet effective methods for problem detection and its solution to revive pressure and production. Analysis was began with observing the deviation of VRR and reservoir pressure, this was to estimate "leak" time of water injection. Next analysis was evaluation of injection rate leak off using material balance with reverse history matching. Reverse here means making reservoir pressure as main constraint rather than history matching goal. After that, it was continued with water injection flow path analysis. This was done by plotting production-injection-pressure data then make several small groups of injector-producer based on visible relationships. The purposes were to find key injector wells and to shut-in all inefficient ones. Furthermore, injection re-distribution was also performed based on VRR calculation on groups from previous step, water distribution priority was focused on key injector wells. These analysis have also paved the way for searching channeling possibility on injector wells. The results, XJN reservoir pressure showed an increasing trend of 100 psi/year after optimization was performed, with current pressure around 2000 psi. The increase in reservoir pressure has also made it possible to optimize ESP, field lifting has increased for 5000 BLPD. This project has also successfully secured XJN remaining oil. This project was racing with rapid pressure decline that will lead to early ESP pump off and production loss. The integrated subsurface analytical methods and actions being taken were simple but effective. Close monitoring on reservoir pressure, water injection and ESP parameters will be needed as field surveillance. Integrated analysis with surface facility engineering should also be carried out in the future in regards to surface network, injection rate and reservoir pressure.

Abstract:
Abstract To achieve 24% portion of natural gas in targeted national energy mix in 2050, Indonesia government has integrated Pertagas, biggest transmission company into PGN, biggest distribution company under Oil & Gas Holding Pertamina. But survey from PWC in 2004 resulted that around 75% post-merger companies reported integration difficulties, especially both companies have long history of competition. Even more, government mandated 6 USD gas price policy at plant gate, which create enormous urgency to accelerate pipeline and digital integration in the most efficient way. Especially, in this pandemic era, midstream industry needs to foster digital transformation by rethinking outdated business models and strategically applying technology to change rather than focusing on simply cutting costs. From this integration, Pertagas with more than 2,418 km pipeline in 12 provinces spread from Sumatra, Java and Kalimantan has a big potency to be synergized with PGN, as Sub Holding Gas with the total of 10,169 km of pipeline which represent 96% of national gas infrastructure. During 2020. Both companies resulted more than 1.255 MMSCFD of transported gas and 828 BBTUD of sales gas to more than 460 thousand customers. So, PGN and Pertagas management has high expectation on this digital integration to transform from previous fragmented pipeline to be interconnected network to give flexibility in reaching unmet growing demand of strategic industry like refinery, fertilizer, electricity, steel and petrochemical in post-COVID recovery. In this paper, will be described the challenges and its solutions as a success story in digital integration. The important steps start from strategy development, digital assessment, creating coalition, culture acculturation, and change management are explained as guiding pathway for sustainable implementation. It will also portray the measured benefit and value from investment cost efficiency, time effectiveness from the initiation until launched, billing improvement, product development, and up to developed real-time integrated management dashboard for better decision making and part of the milestone for future National Dispatching Center for optimizing Sub Holding Gas portfolio of gas supply and subsidiary's infrastructure to meet growing Indonesia's demand.
