Ngimbang Formation

This formation consists of shale with silt interbedding, fine

sandstone, limestone and coal. Depositional environment of this formation is on
delta system, lacustrine and shallow marine on Eocene until Lower Oligocene.

Kujung Formation
This formation consists of shale with clay interbedding. On some area,
there are clastic and reef limestone found spotted. Depositional Environment of
this formation is deep marine until shallow marine on Late Oligocene until Early
Miocene.

Tuban Formation
This formation consists of claystone beds with limestone
interbedding. There is facies change southward in which lithology will grade into
shale and claystone facies (Soejono, 1981 on Handbook of Petroleum Geology
2006). Depositional Environment is deep-middle neritic.

Tawun Formation
This formation consists of silty shale with limestone interbedding. On top
deposit, sandstone facies with little clay inside dominate. Locally, there is spotted
limestone found. Top of Tawun Formation is also called as Ngrayong Member.
Depositional Environment of this formation is open marine until shallow marine
in the top formation. This formation is formed on Middle Miocene (N9-N13)
(Rahardjo & Wiyono, 1993, on Handbook of Petroleum Geology, 2006).

Ngrayong Member
This member is also called as Upper Orbitoiden-Kalak by Trooster
(1937). Van Bemmelen (1949) named this emmber as Upper Rembang
beds. Ngrayong Sandstone name has been introduced by Brouwer (1957). He
proposed local type of this sandstone based on quartz sandstone found
in Ngrayong Village, Jatirogo, in which that member are composed of sandstone
mainly with intercalation of coal and sandy clay.

Harsono (1983), describe Ngrayong as member

of Tawun Formation, consists of orbitoid limestone and shale in lower part. In the
upper part, there are sandstone with limestone intercalation and lignite. This unit
is aged on Middle Miocene, N9-N12. Depositional environment of this unti
is fluvial or submarine based on outcrop found in northside of Village (Jatirogo,
Tawun). On south side of village, this depositional environment of formation
change into marine environment. Marine deposit of this formation on Ngampel
Area show shallowing upward pattern from shoreface to beach. This unit also
show hiatus on mouth of Java Sea. Ngrayong Unit is main reservoir of Cepu
Oilfield, but there is shale occurence in the south and east of this field. Total
thisckness of this unit is varied, average is more than 300 m.

Bulu Formation
This formation consists of bedded clastic limestone and sandy limestone.
Locally, chalky limestone and marl will be found spotted. Crossbedding limestone
is often to found. Depositional environment of this formation is open marine on
Middle Miocene (N13-N14).

Wonocolo Formation
This formation consist of yellow-brown marl, contain glauconite. There
are interbedding of calcarenite and claystone. Depositional environment of this
formation according to Purwati (1987, on Handbook of Petroleum
Geology, 2006) is deep neritic until middle bathyal and formed on Middle
Miocene Upper Miocene (N14-N16).

Ledok Formation
This formation consist of green and red sandstone, glauconitic type with
intercalation of calcarenite and claystone. Crossbedding structure will be found
intensively in sandstone. This formation is deposited due to regresion phase
from Wonocolo Formation on Upper Miocene (N17).

Selorejo Formation
This formation formed by Selorejo Beds acording Trooster, 1937. This
formation had been classified into member of Lidah Formation by Udin
Adinegoro (1972) and Koesoemadinata (1978). This research had been done
since Harsono (1983) didnt continue his observation about the occurence of
unconformity between Lidah Formation and Mundu Formation. He classified this
member into Mundu Formation. Local type of this member located
on Selorejo Village, near Cepu. Lithology character is shown by weaker and
harder bed boundary, remain some glauconites. This unit depositional
environment is deep marine, based on foraminirefa analysis.
Lidah Formation
This formation consists of blue limestone, bedded marl
and coquina limestone lenses. There are sandstone intercalation especially quartz
sandstone contain glauconite and seaa mollusca. In are where this formation
develop into reef limestone, the unit is called Dander Member
