The government has simplified the procedure of obtaining licenses throughout 2017 in the energy and mining sectors, which include oil and natural gas, mineral and coal, electrification, as well as new and renewable energy.
According to an Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry press release obtained by Thejakortd Post, the ministry has teamed up with the Upstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Special Task Force (SKK-Migas), the Finance Ministry’s directorate general for customs and excise and the portal manager of Indonesia National Single Window (PP INSW) in a bid to boost the productivity of upstream oil and gas activities.
Through the cooperation, the parties developed an information integrated system that related to the provision of fiscal policy on imported operating goods for the downstream activity needs of upstream oil and gas contractors.
The government has also launched two online applications electronic Non-Tax Revenues (e-PNBP) and a production monitoring app. The apps allow for a shorter processing time of 40 days to only 10 to 15 days.
The Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry now has 15 licenses - six from the oil and gas sector, six in the mining sector and three in the new and renewable energy sector - for companies to obtain.
The number of licenses has been drastically cut down as 63 of them have been delegates to the one-door integrated services (PTSP) at the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM).
