Petroleum Geology and Exploration Potential of Oil and Gas in Block A of Waipogah Basin, Indonesia/

Abstract

Abstract: Block A is located in the middle of Waipogah Basin which is a backarc sag basin. The major source rocks are limestone and mudstone of Mamberamo, Darante and Makat Formations.The intra-formational sandstone and limestone are reservoir rock. Darante- Makats play, Mamberamo B-C-D member play, and Mamberamo E member-Koekoendoeri play developed in the block. The northern zone in the block has good hydrocarbon accumulation conditions and good exploration potential. This is the key zone for next exploration

Key words: petroleum geology characteristics, source rock, reservoir, reservoir-forming assemblage, exploration potential, Indonesia; Waipogah Basin
