Geothermal geosciences
Research group leaders: Dr. Pri Utami (Dept. of Geological Eng.) & Dr. Wahyudi (Geophysics Study Program)
3G geothermal surveying and modelling = application of various subdisciplines of geology for geothermal resource development (remote sensing, volcanology, stratigraphy, structural and tectonic analyses, geohydrology, petrology and hydrothermal alteration mineralogy) = fluid geochemistry = geophysical techniques (magnetic, gravity, DC resistivity, CSAMT, MT, seismic)
Geothermal environmental monitoring & hazard mitigation
Research group leader: Dr. Doni P. Eka Putra (Dept. of Geological Eng.)
Identification of pre-development environmental geology conditions of geothermal area = geohydrology investigation for geothermal environment monitoring = geologic hazard potential identification and mitigation
Geothermal reservoir engineering
Research group leader: Dr. Khasani (Dept. of Mechanical & Industrial Eng.)
Geothermal reservoir properties evaluation = fluid flow modelling = geothermal reservoir management
Engineering design of surface facilities
Research group leader: Dr. Kusnanto (Dept. of Physical Eng.)&
Dr. M. Agung Bramantya (Dept. of Mechanical & Industrial Eng.)
Surface facility designing and testing = mini-turbine for small-scale geothermal power generation
Geothermal direct utilization
Research group leader: Dr. Samsul Kamal (Dept. of Mechanical & Industrial Eng.)
Direct utilization of geothermal resource for indigenous industries (agriculture, leisure and wellbeing)
Geothermal by-products
Research group leaders: Dr. Alva Edy Tontowi (Dept. of Mechanical & Industrial Eng.)
& Dr. Soepranto (Dept. of Chemical Eng.)
Geochemistry of geothermal fluid deposition = Utilization of geothermal mineral deposits
