INTRODUCTION regional tectonic activities influenced the formation of Kutai Basin. Background Like most basins in western , Kutai Basin began This research is located in the Gunung Bayan area, West to emerge in Middle . According to Van der Weerd Kutai Basin, East Kalimantan (Figure 1). This study & Armin (1992), Kutai Basin formed as an extensional discusses about organic geochemistry for evaluating basin which appeared in the Middle Eocene. This is source rocks of fine-grained sedimentary rocks. Organic slightly different from the Bachtiar (2004) opinion which geochemistry is used as fundamental approach to state that the Kutai Basin is an aulacogen derived from understand the properties of source rocks and to failures in the expansion phase of the continent (rifting) at determine the productive and non-productive zones as Middle Eocene. accretion formation occured well as oil migration and development of oil fields. The during Jurassic and Cretaceous. The west and northwest term source rock refers to an organic-rich fine-grained basement is an accretion prism containing sedimentary rock which can produce hydrocarbons due metasediment, metavolcanic rocks, and material of to thermal maturation. Source rock is one of the main magmatic and amphibole. elements of a hydrocarbon system. The objective of this research is to assess hydrocarbon source potential of The Kutai Basin is the largest (165,000 km) and deepest fine-grained sedimentary rocks of Pamaluan Formation (12.000 to 14.000 meters) sedimentary basin in in Gunung Bayan areas. The Pamaluan Formation has Indonesia.

Waples (1985) used the hydrogen Maturity index values (HI) to differentiate types of organic matter. Hydrogen index value <150 mg/g indicate a potential Thermal maturity can be indicated by Tmax from source for generating gas (mainly Type III kerogen). pyrolysis data. Maximum temperature (Tmax) of the shale, siltstone, and claystone shows varying values 424 Source rock with hydrogen index values between 150 - 542C, 441C, and 436 - 446C, respectively. The shale and 300 mg/g defined more as a Type III kerogen (gas tends to indicate as an immature until mature stage, generation) instead the type II kerogen (oil generation). while one sample indicates over mature (15 MH 07R). Source rock with hydrogen index value >300 mg/g The siltstone and claystone tend to indicate early mature contains a substantial amount of Type II organic matter until mature stage. and thus is considered to have a good potential for generation of oil and minor gas.

Based on the HI / Tmax plot (Figure 6), the maturity level suggested as immature until mature categories with Based on TOC versus S2 plot, kerogen in the present minor over mature (Figure 6). study is suggested as Type III (Figure 7). The diagram also reflects that all of the samples tend to indicate as a According to Figure 6, the shale, siltstone, and kerogen Types III.

Origin of Organic Matter potential (GP) is the sum values of S1 and S2.

DISCUSSION CONCLUSIONS The organic carbon richness of the rock samples (TOC Based on the maturity level, source rocks in the %), is important in evaluating sediments as a source for Pamaluan Formation have potential for generating gas petroleum generation.

The majority of rocks in the Pamaluan Formation are located at gas prone zone specifically poor to fair level. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The fine-grained sedimentary rocks of Pamaluan The authors express their gratitude to PT Gunung Bayan Formation, analyzed from the shale, siltstone, and who have allowed author to attain the data and stay on claystone, appear to be more gas prone rather than oil coal site.
