Abstract The North Sumatra Basin, Indonesia has a very large shale hydrocarbon potential, especially from the Lower Baong Formation and the Belumai Formation. The Belumai and Lower Baong Formations were deposited in the Early Miocene - Middle Miocene, in transgression conditions, when the North Sumatra Basin was in the regional sagging phase. These conditions greatly affect the facies and diagenetic changes of quartz, smectite and kaolinite minerals in rock fracability. The main problem in producing shale hydrocarbons is the very low permeability of unconventional-shale-reservoirs, so that at the production stage of shale hydrocarbon, a fracability model is needed as a basis for planning hydraulic fracking, thus the fractures are connected to each other and can flow the hydrocarbon fluid optimally. From the results of previous studies, it was shown that the shale hydrocarbon fracability value was controlled by lithofacies, and correlated with rock brittleness, brittle mineral content, clay content, and compressive strength. The fracability model is used to determine fracable zone intervals as a candidate for hydraulic fracking, by using geomechanical analysis of well log data and mineralogy analysis of drill cuttings data from the NSB-001 well as a case study. Based on the correlation results of lithology (Mud Log), mineralogy analysis, MBT, and TOC (Drill Cuttings), the sweetpot fracable window (fracable zone interval) can be determined, which is correlated with the presence of fracture barrier.
