Earthquake statistics

Average number of earthquakes

Based on data from the past 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 8,800 quakes on average per year in Indonesia:
  • Mag. 8 or higher: 0.09 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 11.4 years)
  • Mag. 7 or higher: 1.39 quakes per year
  • Mag. 6 or higher: 12.2 quakes per year
  • Mag. 5 or higher: 214 quakes per year (or 17.9 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 4 or higher: 2,400 quakes per year (or 6.4 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 3 or higher: 6,500 quakes per year (or 17.7 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 2 or higher: 8,700 quakes per year (or 23.9 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 1 or higher: 8,800 quakes per year (or 24.1 quakes per day)
Indonesia has a very high level of seismic activity. Indonesia has had at least 12 quakes above magnitude 8 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 10 to 15 years.
