Conference Presentation

1. Utilizing Self-potential Techniques in Delineating Groundwater Flow Sabrian Tri Anda, Fajriani , Nurhamidah , Rachmad Almi Putra, Rosli Saad, Nazrin Rahman

2. Introduction The implementation of geophysical methods in the fields of engineering and the environment has become a crucial discipline One of the main problems faced by urban areas is the availability of a clean water supply The research focus on delineating the groundwater flow by implementing geophysical method (Self Potential) carried out by simple instrument

3. Problem Statement & Research Objectives In geophysical exploration, most geophysical methods require relatively expensive measurement equipment. Provide a geophysical measurement using simple equipment in order to delineate the groundwater flow.

4. Theory Measure the natural static voltage

5. Study Area Location of Study, Lengkong Village, Langsa , Aceh, Indonesia Four measurement lines are in a rectangular shape

6. The geological setting of Langsa City

7. Equipment Methodology

8. Result and Discussion

9. Result and Discussion

10. Result and Discussion The groundwater distribution pattern flow at direction of northwest to southwest.

11. Conclusion The self-potential method with simple equipment has been proven successful in mapping the distribution of groundwater flow at the research site The groundwater distribution pattern is identified flowing from northwest to southwest.

12. Suggestion Comparison between conventional equipment for conduction self potential method. Integration of geophysical method is essential in delineating the existence of groundwater .

13. Acknowledgment The authors would like to thank the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology, Indonesia and Universitas Samudra for funding the research. Moreover, special thanks to student and staff of Physics and Geophysics Study Program of Universitas Samudra for the effort during data acquisition.

14. Thank you for your attention
