Earthquake statistics

Average number of earthquakes

Based on data from the past 14 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 8,700 quakes on average per year in Indonesia:
  • Mag. 8 or higher: 0.14 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 7.1 years)
  • Mag. 7 or higher: 1.77 quakes per year
  • Mag. 6 or higher: 13 quakes per year
  • Mag. 5 or higher: 214 quakes per year (or 17.8 quakes per month)
  • Mag. 4 or higher: 2,300 quakes per year (or 6.3 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 3 or higher: 6,400 quakes per year (or 17.5 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 2 or higher: 8,600 quakes per year (or 23.6 quakes per day)
  • Mag. 1 or higher: 8,700 quakes per year (or 23.8 quakes per day)
Indonesia has a very high level of seismic activity. Indonesia has had at least 18 quakes above magnitude 8 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 5 to 10 years.
