Cross Borneo Field Trip:
Comparison of Sedimentation, Stratigraphy and Structure in Kutai Basin, East
Kalimantan and Northwest Borneo
Date: Sunday, November 28 - Sunday, December 5, 2004
Trip Leaders: Angus Ferguson: Universiti Brunei Darussalam,
Peter Butterworth: VICO Indonesia,
Joseph Lambiase, Chris Morley: Universiti Brunei Darussalam
The eight day field trip will examine the sedimentology, stratigraphy and structure of
the Miocene sediments in the Kutai Basin, East Kalimantan and compare these to the
similar age sediments in Northwest Borneo in Sabah, Malaysia and in Brunei. The
outcrop examples are equivalent in geological facies to the reservoir rocks in the
nearby producing fields.
There are many new outcrop examples of sediments deposited in deep water, tidal flat,
shoreface, deltaic and fluvial dominant depositional environments. There are also
outcrop examples of structures that develop in the cores of previously overpressured
anticlines.
The field trip will provide an opportunity for open discussions on the interpretations
of these different depositional environments.
