INDONESIA NEED SAUDI'S LPG

INDONESIA NEED SAUDI'S LPG

 

PLATTS - Indonesia plans to increase LPG imports from Saudi Arabia and the UAE in a bid to meet rising domestic demand, Energy and Mines Ministry spokesman Dadan Kusdiana said.

State-owned oil and gas company Pertamina's LPG requirements are currently around 6 million mt/year, he said.

"The government of Saudi Arabia is expected to help with a direct purchase of LPG from Saudi Aramco to Pertamina; the portion of Aramco's LPG is only 13% of the company's total needs," he said.

Discussions were held between Energy and Mines Deputy Minister Archandra Tahar and Saudi Arabia and UAE officials recently, he said.

Indonesia has asked the government of the UAE to facilitate the direct purchase by Pertamina of LPG from ADNOC, Kusdiana said.

Indonesia's consumption quota for subsidized LPG was set at 7.06 million mt in the 2017 state budget, up from 6.25 million mt for 2016, SP Global Platts reported earlier.

Indonesia and Saudi Arabia had earlier agreed to set up a joint ministerial level commission to help speed up planned investments by Saudi companies in Indonesia, including cooperation between Pertamina and Saudi Aramco in an oil refinery project in Cilacap in Central Java, Kusdiana said.

Pertamina and Saudi Aramco have agreed to increase the capacity of the Cilacap refinery to 370,000 b/d from 348,000 b/d, and on investment of approximately $5.8 billion. The project is expected to come on stream in 2021, but may be delayed to 2023.

Indonesia's state-owned Pertamina has produced 343,000 b/d of crude oil in the first-half of 2017, up 12% year on year, upstream director Syamsu Alam said late Wednesday. "I think the crude production this year can meet our 2017 target of 354,000 b/d. But gas production may be ... lower compared with the target of 2.08 Bcf/d, due to lower demand and some gas fields [not being able to] produce," he said.

INDONESIA LEAVES OPEC

OPEC had proposed Indonesia cut oil production by about 37,000 barrels per day (bpd), or about 5 percent of its output, which would dent the already slipping oil rent in Southeast Asia's largest economy. Indonesia's Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Ignasius Jonan, who attended the Vienna meeting, said the only reduction Indonesia could accept was a cut of 5,000 bpd, which had been approved in the country's 2017 budget.
