Abstract
The long offset resistivity tomography method has been applied to image the active Baribis thrust fault in Majalengka. The long offset method can have several hundred to thousand meters of depth penetration into the target area. The resistivity tomography image is clearly shown the fault location and the thickness of the overlying rock above the thrust faulted Baribis Fault. The results of drilling for tunneling around the Baribis Fault show a good agreement with the results of the long offset resistivity tomography survey. Long offset resistivity tomography which can have penetration depths of several hundred to thousands of meters is found to be a reliable technique for deep groundwater exploration, oil and gas exploration, as well as geothermal exploration
