History of Cartier Island Versi Australia
The Territory of Pulau Pasir (Ashmore) and Cartier Islands comprises the West, Middle and East Islands of Pulau Pasir (Ashmore Reef), Cartier Island and the 12 nautical mile territorial sea generated by those islands. These areas are indicated on the lower map by the two enclosing boundary lines. The islands are uninhabited, small, low and composed of coral and sand, with some grass cover.
The Territory is located on the outer edge of the continental shelf in the Indian Ocean approximately 320 km off Australia's north-west coast and 170 kilometers south of the Island of Roti, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia (123°33' East, 12°31' South). The Jabiru and Challis oil fields are adjacent to the Territory.
The proximity of the Territory to Indonesia has been the subject of joint official discussions in recent years. In 1997, a Treaty aimed at settling a number of maritime boundaries between the two countries was signed.
Ashmore Reef (Pulau Pasir) is located in the Timor Sea about 840 kilometres west of Darwin and 610 kilometres north of Broome. It is part of the Australian External Territory of Ashmore and Cartier Islands and comprises a shelf-edge reef system of approximately 583 square kilometres, rising from the westward limit of the Sahul Shelf. Three small islands and a number of shifting sand cays lie within the reef rim. The combined area of the islands is 112 hectares, the largest being about one kilometre long.
