7 World Player Aims Bontang



Seven major oil companies eyeing Bontang project that requires an investment of US $ 12 billion-US $ 13 billion. PT Pertamina will launch the project expose the refinery capacity of 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) was on February 28.

According to Senior Vice President of Business Development Directorate of Mega Projects Pertamina Refinery and Petrochemical, lriawan Yulianto, seven companies of the world are interested in is getting a special invitation to bid because it had previously been owned by the company refinery project.

Based on the record business, major oil companies who have taken the tender refineries in Indonesia are Saudi Aramco (Saudi Arabia), Sinopec (China), JX Nippon Oil, SK Corporation (South Korea). In addition, there are two Kuwaiti companies that Kuwait Petroleum Corporation and Kuwait Petroleum International, PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited and Thai Oil (Thailand), and Rosneft (Russia).

World oil players had a chance to take part in the project tender Tuban refinery project in Balongan refinery capacity additions, Dumai Refinery, and Cilacap. Besides the seven foreign oil companies with a special invitation, according Iriawan, there are 50 companies from outside negari and domestic also to participate in the auction netted Bontang refinery project.

"Clearly the seven companies had all the major oil companies, overseas all. 50 companies that mix, nothing from the outside, there is that of the [country] from trading companies, investors of all types of companies in the invite, "he said in Jakarta, Friday (24/2).

On the same occasion, Director of Mega Projects Pertamina Refinery and Petrochemical Hardadi Rachmat said the company seeking prospective partners who have a track record in oil processing, especially tested in terms of operational and project execution. In addition, prospective partners must be able to adjust the structure and business model of the desired Pertamina, has committed to accelerate because the project is targeted for completion in 2023, and provide added value to the project.

Pertamina, according Hardadi, hoped that the strategic partner role in the supply of crude oil and financing. Because, at the initial stage the company will only acquire a controlling stake of 5% to 25%. Another criterion is the mastery of overseas markets such as Australia, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, and the Philippines. The reason, according to Hardadi, currently operates 35% of the solar supply Bontang refinery would be exported because of low absorption in the country. On the other hand, for another project to be produced such as gasoline series will be absorbed fully to meet domestic demand, as well as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and petrochemical although can not say how much volume that may be generated.

As an illustration, Hardadi mentioned that generally the total capacity of the refinery, LPG produced 7% to 10%, gasoline 40% and diesel by 50%. In fact there is excess of 55% [of solar products from Bontang] which is not absorbed in the country. "

CAPACITY MARKET

A 300,000 bpd refinery in Bontang is a basic capacity that allows plus. Taking into account the ability of the market, there are opportunities Hardadi mention the addition of up to 400,000 bpd. Nevertheless, the additional capacity will not significantly influence the capital that must be removed. Bontang's project, according Hardadi, capital of about US $ 3 billion lower than Tuban refinery which require funding of up to US $ 15 billion. That's because the availability of land and infrastructure in Bontang.

Hardadi optimistic the project with a payback ratio (internal rate of return / IRR) of 13%, the refinery can still provide benefits when oil prices began to rise. When the price of oil was at US $ 50s per barrel, he said, businesses take advantage higher refinery. However, he menybut current oil prices do not describe the normal price. Oil prices normally in the range of US $ 80 per barrel to US $ 100 per barrel is expected to occur six to seven years. Therefore, he said, in the oil price that had to be prepared for the players refineries.

"If at the time of profit, now. When the price of crude normally be the collapse ya should not be. So we calculate it precisely at the worst time later. "

Observers energy dad Rakhmanto ReforMiner Institute Pri Agung said the search for a strategic partner to build a refinery relies on the project structure and economies of scale of the project. When both aspects have fulfilled the desire of investors, anyone will be interested to invest. Government guarantees in some aspects eg funding schemes and incentives in the form of tax privileges, according to him, could add to the appeal of the project in the eyes of investors.

Moreover involvement in the project this assignment, Pertamina in the early stages will only acquire a controlling stake of up to 25%, lower than its stake in Tuban refinery project and the Cilacap refinery, which reached 55% stake. Referring to the experience of building together with partners, some projects even interrupted its partnerships.

 7 Pemain Dunia lncar Bontang


Tujuh perusahaan minyak dunia mengincar proyek Kilang Bontang yang membutuhkan investasi US$ 12 miliar-US$ 13 miliar.  PT Pertamina akan melansir project expose kilang berkapasitas 300.000 barel per hari (bph) itu pada 28 Februari.

Menurut Senior Vice President Business Development Direktorat Mega Proyek Kilang dan Petrokimia Pertamina, lriawan Yulianto, tujuh perusahaan dunia yang berminat memang mendapatkan undangan khusus kaRena sebelumnya pernah mengikuti tender proyek kilang milik perseroan.

Berdasarkan catatan Bisnis, perusahaan minyak dunia yang pernah mengikuti tender kilang di Indonesia adalah Saudi Aramco (Arab Saudi), Sinopec (China), JX Nippon Oil, SK Corporation (Korea Selatan). Selain itu, ada dua perusahaan asal Kuwait yakni Kuwait Petroleum Corporation dan Kuwait Petroleum International, PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited & Thai Oil (Thailand), dan Rosneft (Rusia).

Pemain minyak dunia itu sempat ambil bagian dalam tender proyek Kilang Tuban, proyek penambahan kapasitas di Kilang Balongan, Kilang Dumai, dan Kilang Cilacap. Selain tujuh perusahaan minyak asing dengan undangan khusus, menurut Iriawan, ada 50 perusahaan dari luar negari dan dalam negeri yang juga terjaring untuk mengikuti lelang proyek Kilang Bontang.

“Yang jelas tujuh perusahaan tadi perusahaan minyak dunia semua, dari luar negeri semua. 50 perusahaan itu mix, ada yang dari luar, ada yang dari dalam [negeri] mulai dari perusahaan trading, investor semua tipe perusahaan di persilahkan," ujarnya di Jakarta, Jumat (24/2).

Pada kesempatan yang sama, Direktur Mega Proyek Kilang dan Petrokimia Pertamina Rachmad Hardadi mengatakan Pertamina mencari calon mitra yang memiliki rekam jejak di usaha pengolahan minyak, khususnya teruji dari sisi operasional dan eksekusi proyek. Selain itu, calon mitra harus dapat menyesuaikan struktur dan model bisnis yang dikehendaki Pertamina, memiliki komitmen untuk melakukan percepatan karena proyek ditargetkan rampung pada 2023, dan memberikan nilai tambah bagi proyek.

Pertamina, menurut Hardadi, berharap agar mitra strategis berperan dalam penyediaan minyak mentah dan pendanaan. Pasalnya, pada tahap awal perseroan hanya akan menguasai saham sebesar 5% hingga 25%. Kriteria lain adalah penguasaan pasar di luar negeri seperti Australia, Papua Nugini, Selandia Baru, dan Filipina. Pasalnya, menurut Hardadi, saat beroperasi 35% pasokan solar Kilang Bontang akan diekspor karena penyerapan yang rendah di dalam negeri. Di sisi lain, untuk proyek lain yang akan dihasilkan seperti gasoline series akan diserap sepenuhnya untuk memenuhi kebutuhan dalam negeri, begitu pula dengan liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) dan petrokimia kendati belum bisa disebutkan berapa volume yang mungkin dihasilkan.

Sebagai gambaran, Hardadi menyebutkan bahwa pada umumnya dari kapasitas total kilang, dihasilkan LPG 7% hingga 10%, gasolin 40%  dan diesel hingga 50%. Bahkan ada excess 55% [produk solar dari Kilang Bontang] yang tidak terserap dalam negeri.”

KAPASITAS PASAR

Kapasitas 300.000 bph di Kilang Bontang merupakan kapasitas dasar yang memungkinkan ditambah. Dengan mempertimbangkan kemampuan pasar, Hardadi menyebut terdapat peluang penambahan hingga mencapai 400.000 bph. Kendati demikian, tambahan kapasitas tak akan berpengaruh signifikan terhadap modal yang harus dikeluarkan. Untuk proyek Kilang Bontang, menurut Hardadi, modalnya sekitar US$3 miliar lebih rendah dari Kilang Tuban yang membutuhkan dana hingga US$ 15 miliar. Hal itu dikarenakan ketersediaan lahan dan infrastruktur pada Kilang Bontang.

Hardadi optimistis proyek dengan rasio pengembalian modal (internal rate of return/IRR) 13 %, kilang tetap bisa memberikan keuntungan ketika harga minyak mulai naik. Saat harga minyak berada di angka US$50-an per barel, katanya, pelaku usaha kilang mengambil keuntungan lebih tinggi. Namun, dia menybut harga minyak saat ini belum menggambarkan harga normal. Harga minyak normal di kisaran US$ 80 per barel hingga US$ 100 per barel diperkirakan terjadi enam sampai tujuh tahun ke depan. Oleh karena itu, katanya, di harga minyak itulah harus dipersiapkan bagi para pemain kilang.

“Kalau pada saat untung, sekarang. Pada saat harga crude normalnya menjadi collapse ya tidak boleh. Jadi kami menghitungnya justru pada saat the worst nanti."

Pengamat energi dad ReforMiner Institute Pri Agung Rakhmanto mengatakan pencarian mitra strategis pembangunan kilang bertumpu pada struktur proyek dan skala ekonomi proyek. Apabila kedua aspek itu telah memenuhi keinginan investor, siapapun akan tertarik untuk menanamkan modal. Jaminan pemerintah dalam beberapa aspek misalnya skema pendanaan dan insentif berupa fasilitas perpajakan, menurut dia, bisa menambah daya tarik proyek di mata pemodal.

Terlebih Iagi, dalam proyek penugasan ini, Pertamina pada tahap awal hanya akan menguasai saham hingga 25%, lebih rendah dari kepemilikan saham di proyek Kilang Tuban dan Kilang Cilacap yang mencapai saham 55%. Mengacu pada pengalaman membangun bersama mitra, beberapa proyek bahkan terputus kemitraannya.

Deputy Business, Logistics, Regions and Tourism Ministry of SOEs and one Pertamina Commissioner Edwin Hidaya Abdullah said that so far there are five candidates for the chief executive from the company's internal.

However, he said, of the names that have been entered into the exchange president of Pertamina, has not narrowed down to a particular candidate. BOC will complete the selection in ranahnya on weekends. Furthermore, the names of strong candidates the number one in Pertamina will be proposed next week. "It should have entered his name next week, usually three or four people who submitted to the President," he said on the sidelines of the Oil and Gas Holding Socialization in the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), Thursday (23/2). Unfortunately, he was reluctant to specify the names of the Managing Director of Pertamina's selection participants.

As is known, Ahmad Bambang Dwi Soetjipto and removed from office respectively as Managing Director and Deputy Managing Director of Pertamina on February 3 last. Furthermore, Yenny Andayani appointed as Acting (Acting) Managing Director for 30 to appointed Managing Director of definitive or until March 5. By later set a new Managing Director, Edwin Pertamina's management hopes the future will be more solid. Therefore, in this selection, the Board look for candidates who have the leadership skills to do business.

"We're not looking for super CEOs who control aspects in detail, but the figure of the CEO who can become a leader who can bring Pertamina for the better," he said.

Need Transparency

Researcher Association of Indonesian Political Economy (AEPI) Salamuddin Daeng argues, the government in this case the president and minister of state must be wise in the appointment of the president of Pertamina. This must be done with consideration of, among others, the Government must first explain to the public about the dismissal of Managing Director of Pertamina and the elimination of the position of vice president some time ago.

"The sacking of president and the elimination of the position of Vice-President who is his government's decision should be explained in a transparent manner so as not to cause a variety of issues that ultimately are not favorable to the government itself," he said.

Therefore, according to Salamuddin, the government should not hurry hurry and chase running to fill the position of Managing Director of vacant because in essence Pertamina for 2 or 3 months to depah can continue to operate as usual, remember Pertamina already has guidelines and systems that can run without having commandeered fully by a president. The government, he said, should do a good selection of the new chief executive to be visionary and understand the true development of the global situation, geopolitics, the state of the nation.

"The new Managing Director should be selected and clear track record clean of the main interest groups and is able to boost profit that Pertamina can not rely solely on the income of the upstream sector," he explained. He also warned that the government should also pay attention and listen to the aspirations of the internal Pertamina especially from workers and unions Pertamina. Given the new director will lead the workers who will have to work wholeheartedly to ensure adequate serving the public.

The government also must hear also the aspirations of the people, independents, academics, who have long se are focus of study and their study of the problems of oil and gas. "Pertamina president of the new candidate should be opened to the public to listen to the aspirations of the people. Most importantly, the new president of Pertamina as much as possible should be released from excessive political intervention, so that Pertamina does not act as a "party" for the sake of political power, "he said.

Holding Oil and Gas

Meanwhile, in a hearing (RDP) with the Commission VI of the House of Representatives, the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) explains the purpose and benefits dad "holding" of oil and gas (oil). "Benefits of 'hoiding' oil and gas is projected to create significant value creation. Then projected will increase tax revenues and dividends for the country, "said Edwin Hidayat Abdullah. RDP was also attended by Acting (Acting) Director Managing Director of Pertamina Yenni Andayani and Director Pertagas Toto Nugroho.

Furthermore, Edwin said multiplier effect on the formation of a holding oil and gas are industry revenue increase, which will also impact on tax revenues. Furthermore, the decline in selling prices of products to end customers due to lower production costs. thus opening space decline in gas prices will improve competitiveness. Then, the increased absorption of labor due to the growth of the industrial sector.

Not had time to explain in detail, Edwin talks have been deducted by the Commission VI to explain or clarification regarding the change of managing director of Pertamina and its deputy director. Therefore, the discussion became switched focus to internal problems Pertamina. Edwin asked many questions related to changes in the organizational structure of Pertamina and asked to take responsibility for their internal problems.

After the hearings, the Vice Chairman of Commission VII Azam Azman Natawijana wants an explanation regarding the Holding should be submitted directly by the SOE Minister Rini Soemarno.

"Until now we do not know why there should be a state-owned holding and how his concept, his ministers should come here (Commission VI) to explain himself directly so 'clear'," he said. Level requirement of holding it, he also explained that it can not be learned, because the information circulating is not clear, from the Pertamina and the Ministry of SOEs is still considered one voice and often different answers. "We need a dialogue with his minister," he said. Azam added that the concept of holding can not be generalized

Pekan Depan, Dewan Komisaris Usulkan Calon Dirut Pertamina


 Pekan depan, Dewan Komisaris PT Pertamina akan mengusulkan nama-Nama calon direktur utama perusahaan migas milik pemerintah ini kepada Presiden JoKo Widodo. Deputi Bidang Usaha, Logistik, Kawasan, dan Pariwisata Kementerian BUMN sekaligus salah satu Komisaris Pertamina Edwin Hidaya Abdullah mengatakan, sejauh ini terdapat lima calon direktur utama yang berasal dari internal perseroan.

Sementara untuk calon dari luar Pertamina, dia mengaku tidak mengetahui siapa saja yang mengikuti seleksi. Namun, kata dia, dari nama-nama yang telah masuk ke bursa dirut Pertamina, belum mengerucut ke calon tertentu. Dewan Komisaris akan menyelesaikan seleksi di ranahnya pada pekan. Selanjutnya, nama-nama kandidat kuat orang nomor satu di Pertamina ini akan diusulkan pada pekan depan. “Harusnya minggu depan sudah masuk namanya, biasanya tiga atau empat orang yang diajukan ke Presiden,” kata dia di sela Sosialisasi Holding Migas di Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM), Kamis (23/2). Sayangnya, dia enggan merinci nama-nama peserta seleksi Dirut Pertamina ini.

Seperti diketahui, Dwi Soetjipto dan Ahmad Bambang diberhentikan dari jabatan masing-masing sebagai Dirut dan Wakil Dirut Pertamina pada 3 Februari lalu. Selanjutnya, Yenny Andayani ditunjuk sebagai Pelaksana Tugas (Plt) Dirut selama 30 sampai ditunjuk Dirut definitif atau sampai 5 Maret. Dengan nantinya ditetapkan Dirut baru, Edwin berharap manajemen Pertamina ke depannya akan lebih solid. Karenanya dalam seleksi ini, Dewan Komisaris mencari calon yang memiliki kecakapan dalam kepemimpinan hingga berbisnis.

“Kami tidak mencari super CEO yang menguasai aspek secara detail, tetapi sosok CEO yang bisa menjadi leader yang bisa membawa Pertamina menjadi lebih baik,” ujar dia.

Perlu Transparansi

Peneliti Asosiasi Ekonomi Politik Indonesia (AEPI) Salamuddin Daeng berpendapat, pemerintah dalam hal ini Presiden dan menteri BUMN harus bijaksana dalam pengangkatan dirut Pertamina. Hal ini perlu dilakukan dengan pertimbangan, antara lain Pemerintah terlebih dahulu menjelaskan ke publik mengenai pemberhentian Dirut Pertamina dan penghapusan posisi wakil dirut beberapa waktu lalu.

“Pencopotan dirut dan penghapusan posisi Wakil Dirut yang merupakan keputusan pemerintah harus nya dijelaskan secara transparan sehingga tidak menimbulkan berbagai isu yang pada akhirnya tidak menguntungkan bagi Pemerintah itu sendiri," katanya.

Karenanya, menurut Salamuddin, pemerintah tidak perlu tergesa gesa dan kejar tayang untuk mengisi posisi Dirut yang kosong karena pada hakekatnya Pertamina untuk 2 atau 3 bulan ke depah tetap bisa berjalan Seperti biasa, mengingat Pertamina sudah punya acuan dan sistem yang bisa berjalan tanpa harus dikomandoi sepenuhnya oleh seorang dirut. Pemerintah, kata dia, harus melakukan seleksi yang baik terhadap direktur utama yang baru yang harus visioner dan mengerti benar perkembangan situasi global, geopolitik, keadaan bangsa dan negara.

“Dirut yang baru harus diseleksi dan jelas rekam jejaknya yang bersih dari kepentingan kelompok dan utamanya mampu mendongkrak perolehan laba Pertamina yang tidak bisa mengandalkan dari pendapatan sektor hulu semata,” jelasnya. 

   Dia juga mengingatkan agar pemerintah juga memperhatikan dan mendengarkan aspirasi internal Pertamina terutama dari pekerja serta Serikat pekerja Pertamina. Mengingat direktur baru akan memimpin pekerja yang nanti harus bekerja sepenuh hati dalam memastikan tercukupinya hajat hidup rakyat banyak.

Pemerintah juga harus mendengar juga aspirasi masyarakat, kalangan independen, para akademisi, yang se lama ini mefokuskan kajian dan penelitian mereka terhadap masalah migas. “Kandidat dirut Pertamina yang baru hendaknya dibuka ke Publik untuk mendengarkan aspirasi masyarakat. Yang terpenting lagi, dirut Pertamina yang baru sedapat mungkin harus dilepaskan dari intervensi politik yang berlebihan, sehingga Pertamina tidak dijadikan sebagai ajang bancakan untuk kepentingan politik kekuasaan,” tegasnya.

Holding Migas

Sementara itu, dalam Rapat Dengar Pendapat (RDP) dengan Komisi VI DPR RI, Kementerian Badan Usaha Milik Negara (BUMN) menjelaskan tujuan serta manfaatnya dad “holding" minyak dan gas (migas). “Manfaat dari ‘hoIding’ migas adalah diproyeksikan untuk menciptakan value creation yang signifikan. Kemudian diproyeksikan juga akan meningkatkan pendapatan dari pajak dan deviden bagi negara,” kata Edwin Hidayat Abdullah. RDP tersebut juga dihadiri oleh Pelaksana Tugas (plt) Direktur Utama Pertamina Yenni Andayani dan Dirut Pertagas Toto Nugroho.

Lebih lanjut, Edwin mengatakan multiplier effect dari pembentukan holding migas adalah pendapatan industri meningkat yang juga akan berimbas kepada pendapatan pajak negara. Selanjutnya, penurunan harga jual produk kepada pelanggan akhir karena turunnya biaya produksi. sehingga membuka ruang penurunan harga gas yang akan meningkatkan daya saing. Kemudian, meningkatnya daya serap tenaga kerja karena pertumbuhan sektor industri. 

Belum sempat menjelaskan secara detail, pembicaraan Edwin sudah dipotong oleh Komisi VI untuk menjelaskan atau klarifikasi mengenai pergantian direktur utama Pertamina dan wakil direktur-nya. Oleh karena itu, pembahasan menjadi beralih fokus kepada permasalahan internal Pertamina. Edwin di tanya banyak pertanyaan terkait dengan perubahan struktur organisasi Pertamina tersebut dan diminta turut bertanggung jawab dalam adanya permasalahan internal tersebut.

Usai RDP, Wakil Ketua Komisi VII DPR Azam Azman Natawijana menginginkan penjelasan terkait Holding haruslah disampaikan langsung oleh Menteri BUMN Rini Soemarno.

“Sampai saat ini kami tidak mengetahui kenapa harus ada holding BUMN dan bagaimana konsepnya, harusnya menteri-nya datang ke sini (Komisi VI) untuk menjelaskan maksudnya secara langsung jadi ‘clear’,” katanya. Tingkat kebutuhan dari holding itu, ia juga menjelaskan bahwa hal tersebut belum bisa dipelajari, karena informasi yang beredar belum jelas, dari pihak Pertamina dan Kementerian BUMN dinilai masih belum satu suara dan sering berbeda jawaban. “Kami perlu berdialog dengan Menteri-nya,” katanya. Azam menambahkan bahwa konsep holding tidak bisa disamaratakan

Holding Company may Boost Gas Facilities



The government hopes the establishment of an oil and gas state-owned enterprise (SGE) holding company will encourage gas infrastructure development and lower gas prices to boost growth in the industrial sector. lndonesia’s poor gas infrastructure has been a major stumbling block both for business players and the government as it causes high prices of domestic pipe gas and makes the country dependent on liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports despite being fossil-fuel rich.

The SOE Ministry’s deputy of energy, logistics, estates and tourism, Edwin Hidayat Abdullah, said gas infrastructure development, currently in the hands of state-owned firms Pertamina and PGN, would improve under the supervision of one holding company. The Upstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Special Task Force (SKK- Migas) has estimated that Indonesia will need to spend at least US$ 24.3 billion until 2030 to develop proper gas infrastructure, including pipelines, liquefaction and regasification facilities.

“This will boost domestic gas supply and enable effective and efficient gas distribution. Furthermore, it may lower gas prices because of a shorter distribution chain,” Edwin said during a meeting at the House of Representatives on Thursday. Since last year, President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo has called for reduction of gas prices to $ 6 per million British thermal units (mmbtu) to spur the development of the downstream industry, which can create a significant multiplier effect in the economy. At about $9 per mmbtu, Indonesia’s gas prices are higher than its Southeast Asian peers. Some ofthe main domestic gas fields are located far from Java, where most manufacturing facilities exist.

The government has approved LNG imports to meet gas demand, which is estimated to surge by 4 percent each year. Local gas production reached approximately 7,883 bbtud throughout 2016, while the demand for the industrial sector amounted to 2,750 bbtud. Despite the government’s hopes, the foundation of an oil and gas company may be difficult as a newly-issued government regulation faces challenges from the House of Representatives. Government Regulation (PP) No. 72/2016, which replaces the earlier version issued in 2005 and stipulates the mechanism of state capital participation and administration for SOEs, is supposed to act as a legal basis for any transaction mechanism dubbed “inbreng,” in which stakes and assets in one company are transferred to another and are treated as a capital injection.

The rule will allow the implementation of the inbreng mechanism without changing the state budget and therefore erase the requirement of obtaining approval from the House of Representatives beforehand. However, the House’s Commission VI overseeing trade, industry and investment continues to have serious doubts about the new regulation and has asked the government to pause implementation.

Commission VI deputy chairman Azam Asman Natawijana said the House was still unclear about the urgency of setting up holding companies of state owned firms because of the lack of communication with the government.  “we think that PP [No] 72 may violate several laws by allowing the inbreng of all and any shares. Furthermore, we cannot treat all holding companies equally as there are different needs,” law maker said.

Add gas stations Up Remote

Ignatius Jonan confirmed it would increase the number of filling stations Fuel (petrol stations) to remote areas in the country. This is to follow up the implementation of fuel oil (BBM) one price across Indonesia. "To fuel at the pump is already one price. Just at the retail level yet, "he said. To suppress the existence of the retailer, adding gas stations to remote needs, '' he said.

This effort will continue until the next six months. For areas that have potential for oil and gas and has been explored, said Jonan, a local government receives 10% of the shares.

Biaya Eksplorasi Tidak Adil


Biaya eksplorasi minyak dan gas bumi (migas) dianggap pemerintah tidak adil. Eksplorasi sumber energi oleh pihak ketiga, terutama asing selama ini cenderung mengesampingkan azas keadilan. Perusahaan diberi kewenangan untuk eksplorasi, dan hasilnya dibagi. Namun, biaya eksplorasi ditanggung pemerintah. Ini yang dianggap tidak adil. Hal itu diungkapkan Menteri Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) Ignatius Jonan saat menyampaikan orasi ilmiah di pengukuhan mahasiswa baru program doktor, magister, dan profesi Universitas Airlangga (Unair) di Aula Garuda Mukti, Gedung Manajemen, Kampus C Unair,
Kamis (23/2).

Targetnya, mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional. “Investasi eks kontrak karya akan ditawarkan ke pemerintah pusat, daerah, BUMN, BUMD, hingga swasta nasional. Jika masih kesulitan, harus go public,” rinci pejabat yang lahir di Singapura ini.

Untuk persentase yang ditawarkan presiden ke pusat, kata Jonan, sebesar 51%. “Yang urusannya dengan Freeport masih negosiasi,” tandasnya.

Tambah SPBU Hingga Pelosok 

Ignatius Jonan menegaskan pihaknya akan menambah jumlah Stasiun Pengisian Bahan Bakar Minyak (SPBU) hingga pelosok di Tanah Air. Ini sebagai tindak lanjut pemberlakuan bahan bakar minyak (BBM) satu harga se Indonesia. “Untuk BBM di SPBU sudah satu harga. Cuma di tingkat pengecer yang belum,” katanya. Untuk menekan keberadaan pengecer, penambahan SPBU hingga pelosok perlu,”’ tandasnya.

Upaya ini akan terus dilakukan hingga enam bulan ke depan. Untuk daerah yang memiliki potensi migas dan sudah dieksplorasi, kata Jonan, Pemerintah Daerahnya mendapatkan 10% saham. Persentase ini cukup besar untuk pembangunan daerah. Pemberian saham ini melalui bagi hasil dalam kurun waktu maksimal 30 tahun.
