A magnitude 4.7 earthquake near Tarakan, Tarakan Regency, North Kalimantan, Indonesia, was reported only 8 minutes ago by Indonesia’s Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency, considered the main national agency that monitors seismic activity in Indonesia. The earthquake occurred at a shallow depth of 10. km beneath the epicenter early evening on Wednesday, November 5th, 2025, at 6:37 pm local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake which listed the quake at magnitude 4.7 as well.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.
In Tarakan (pop. 250,000) located 15 km from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Tanjung Selor (pop. 56,600) located 63 km from the epicenter.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Nunukan (pop. 67,000) located 96 km from the epicenter, and Tawau
