Orogency

Wilson cycle is a cycle opening and closing an

ocean basin. Wilson cycle begins with a
hypothetical geologically (tectonically) quiet
continent. The model is divided into nine stages,
but the stages are arbitrary and do not exist
naturally. Within the earth is an ongoing series of
processes and it is more important to understand
these processes, how they are related, and how
one process leads to the next process.

SULAWESI ISLAND : WELDING OF

MICROCONTINENTS
Sulawesi Island consists of
the following terranes :
South Sulawesi Microcontinent
Sula Banggai Microcontinent Belt
Buton Micro-continent
Metamorphic Belt
Ophiolite Belt
The northern arm is a Recent,
active magmatic arc with poor
petroleum potential.

Basins of Eastern Indonesia

The Pre-tertiary and early Tertiary stratigraphies are near-copies of
the NW shelf of Australia. They prove that the multitude of highly
rotated and deformed fragments making up many of the islands of
Eastern Indonesia.
The western side of Sulawesi, representing a fragment from the
edge of the Sundaland
Eastern Indonesia is tectonically and structurally extremely
complex, comprising slivers of continental blocks, arc fragments
and trapped ocean basins.
Although many potential petroleum basins are recognized, they
tend to be small, geologically poorly understood and, many,
indeepwater.
