Research has been done about the relocation of earthquake hypocenter position, seismic wave local velocity and correction of seismic wave recording station at the Abang-Culik Fault area according to coordinate 115,25°-115,75° BT and 8,00°-8,60° LS. Data which was used on this research was the earthquake data that occur in the 2015-2020 period. The research was conducted using the coupled velocity-hypocenter method. From the relocation result, the position of the earthquake hypocenter shifted, which initially spread to become more concentrated in the fault plane area. The local velocity decreasing a lot in the 3rd layer which was influenced by the presence of the Mount Agung magma pocket in that area. The correction of Station shown that only 1 station has a negative value of delay time, namely IGBI station while the other 13 stations show a positive value of delay time.
