Kelompok Keilmuan Eksplorasi Sumberdaya Bumi

Informasi Umum

Kelompok Keilmuan Eksplorasi Sumberdaya Bumi (KK-ESDB) terdiri dari para ahli di bidang teknologi eksplorasi sumber daya bumi. Penelitian di KK-ESDB mencakup empat topik besar KK-ESDB terdiri dari:

  • Mineral and coal deposit exploration and evaluation specifically in genetic model of mineral deposit, exploration model, geostatistics applications, and evaluation of deposit resources and reserves. areas.
  • Fossil energy exploration specifically in organic-rich rocks genetic model (coal and shale oil/gas) by mean of organic petrology and geochemistry in order to support discoveries of conventional and unconventional energy resources.
  • Geotechnology for exploration specifically in the applications of some exploration methods: geophysics, geochemistry, geotechnical investigation, remote sensing, and geological engineering.
  • Groundwater resource, geothermal, and environment specifically groundwater resource modeling and exploitation technology, quantitative hydrogeology, and hydro-geochemistry for supporting applications in mining, geothermal, and environment.

    • Anggota KK-ESDB memiliki latar belakang pendidikan dengan kualifikasi Ph.D (9 orang) dan Magister (1 orang); serta posisi akademis yang luas: 1 profesor, 5 profesor asosiasi, 3 asisten profesor, dan 1 instruktur. Penelitian dalam kelompok ini sangat intensif yang ditunjukkan dengan banyaknya publikasi di jurnal dan prosiding baik skala nasional maupun internasional. Di bidang pendidikan, kelompok ini melayani perkuliahan pada program sarjana dan pascasarjana teknik pertambangan, program pascasarjana teknik airtanah dan panas bumi. Anggota KK-ESDB juga aktif dalam kolaborasi pemecahan masalah dengan berbagai industri pertambangan, perminyakan, dan panas bumi. Saat ini KK-ESDB menjalankan penelitian bersama selama 5 tahun (2015 - 2020) dengan Universitas Kyoto (Proyek SATREPS) dalam topik Sistem Pemanfaatan Panas Bumi yang Beneficial and Advanced Geothermal Use System (BAGUS) dan didukung oleh JICA dan JST.

    Penelitian Utama:

    1. Beneficial and Advanced Geothermal Use System (BAGUS) Project under Science and Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS) - a Japanese government program that promotes international joint research. BAGUS project is a project for technology development of steam-spot detection and sustainable resource use for large enhancement of geothermal power generation in Indonesia. This research collaboration primarily between ITB and Kyoto University, and supported by Geological Agency of Indonesia, Star Energy Geothermal Ltd., Hokkaido University, AIST Japan, RESTEC Japan, Mitsubishi Materials Co., funded by JICA and JST – Japan. 
    2. Study of bone coal genesis and its distribution in Berau Coal mine, East Kalimantan (a collaboration between ITB and PT Berau Coal).
    3. The crosswell seismic reflection modelling for the underground coal mine planning in Indonesia.(2014-2016)
