About this ebook
As pressure builds — in the well, in the boardroom, and in a crew running out of safe options — Nadia has to choose between the career that trained her to trust the model and the evidence telling her the model is wrong. What she finds beneath the Weber Deep will cost more than one well, one company, or one career. It will be the first confirmed site of something the world isn't ready to name.
Black Reservoir is Book One of The Abyss — a hard science fiction series that treats first contact the way a geologist treats an anomaly: with rigor, patience, and the growing dread of a number that refuses to resolve.

About the author
Andi Anriansyah is a technical professional with more than seventeen years of experience across the oil & gas, mining, and infrastructure sectors, specializing in subsurface evaluation, resource development, and geological risk assessment. He holds a degree in Geological Engineering from Institut Teknologi Bandung and has worked across exploration and development projects in major basins throughout Indonesia — from South Sumatra to the Bintuni Basin in Papua — as well as an international petrophysical evaluation in Madagascar.
His career has spanned operator, project, and government-related settings, contributing technical input to development planning, execution decisions, and risk management under geological uncertainty — the same territory of incomplete data and consequential decisions that Black Reservoir dramatizes.
A lifelong reader of science fiction, Andi Anriansyah has long been drawn to stories that sit at the boundary between what instruments can measure and what they can't yet explain. Black Reservoir is his first novel.
