Jonan Unburses Investment Blocks


    ESDM Minister Ignatius Jonan admitted that the revocation of 32 rules is nothing but to remove the barriers that have been complained by entrepreneurs.

    The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) cut 2 regulations across the sector and will continue to accelerate investment. The effort is also expected to eliminate the barriers that had been a barrier for entrepreneurs.

    The 32 regulations of the revoked ESDM sector are spread over the oil and gas sub-sectors (minerals), minerals, electricity, renewable energy and energy conservation (EBTKE), as well as regulations on the Special Rapporteur Upstream Oil and Gas Business (SKK Migas).




SKK Migas

"As per the President's direction, we should try to encourage investment for economic growth and better job creation. One directive is to reduce licensing, reduce regulations that are seen as encouraging for business activities and investment getting better, "said ESDM Minister Ignasius Jonan at the Office of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Jakarta yesterday.




ESDM Minister Ignatius Jonan

    Jonan said that of the 32 regulation deleted, the details are 11 regulations from oil and gas, 4 electricity regulations, 7 mineral and coal sectors, 7 EBTKE and 3 regulations on SKK Migas.

    According to him, the regulations under it should also be immediately revoked. That way, the policy can run optimally and it seems to be felt immediately entrepreneurs.

    Jonan claimed the cornerstone of the revocation of 32 rules was none other than to remove obstacles that have been complained of entrepreneurs. The obstacles to making investments are difficult to grow as expected by the government and society.

    He said the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources will continue to implement the strategy for the business sector getting better and better. Efforts to facilitate investment through revocation or simplification of regulations and licensing will continue to be improved.

"It is not only 32 (the current rules are revoked), maybe a week or two more will be reduced again so that business activities better," he concluded.

Irrelevant

    On the same occasion, Secretary General of the ESDM Ministry Ego Syarial explains the reason 11, the rules in the oil and gas sector are revoked is in addition to complained entrepreneurs, is also no longer relevant.



Ego Syarial 

    As well as Regulation of Minister of Mines and Energy Number 02 Year 1975 concerning work safety at distribution pipe and facility of completion for oil and gas transportation outside work area of ​​oil and gas mining.

"This regulation is already irrelevant because there is already a new regulation," he said.

    Then, the process of licensing the oil and gas sector will also be simplified. Ego says the basic principles of ESDM regulations that will not be revoked include derivatives of the Basic Law mandate on the management of natural resources as much as possible-for the welfare of society and the rules of safety.

"Beyond that, the things that are irrelevant and suspected to have hampered the business world, we pull," he said.

Jonan Cabut Regulasi Penghambat Investasi


    Menteri ESDM Ignasius Jonan mengaku pencabutan 32 aturan itu tidak lain untuk menghilangkan hambatan yang selama ini dikeluhkan para pengusaha.

    Kementerian Energi dan Sumher Daya Mineral (ESDM) memangkas 2 peraturan di seluruh sektor dan akan terus dilakukan untuk memperlancar investasi. Upaya itu juga diharapkan mampu meniadakan hambatan yang selama ini menjadi hambatan bagi para pengusaha.

    Ke-32 regulasi sektor ESDM yang dicabut itu tersebar pada sub-sektor minyak dan gas bumi (migas), mineral dan batu bara (minerba), ketenagalistrikan, energi baru terbarukan dan konservasi energi (EBTKE), juga regulasi pada Satuan Kerja Khusus Pelaksana kegiatan Usaha Hulu Minyak dan Gas Bumi (SKK Migas).

“Sesuai arahan Presiden, kita harus coba mendorong investasi untuk pertumbuhan ekonomi dan penciptaan lapangan kerja yang lebih baik. Salah satu arahan ialah mengurangi perizinan, mengurangi peraturan yang dipandang bisa mendorong untuk kegiatan usaha dan investasi makin lama makin baik,” ujar Menteri ESDM Ignasius Jonan di Kantor Kementerian ESDM, Jakarta, kemarin.

    Jonan menuturkan, dari total 32 regulasi yang dihapus, perinciannya ialah 11 regulasi dari migas, 4 regulasi ketenagalistrikan, 7 sektor minerba, 7 EBTKE, dan 3 peraturan pelaksanaan pada SKK Migas.

    Menurut dia, peraturan di bawahnya juga harus segera turut dicabut. Dengan begitu, kebijakan bisa berjalan optimal dan nampaknya bisa segera dirasakan pengusaha.

    Jonan mengaku landasan pencabutan 32 aturan itu tidak lain untuk menghilangkan hambatan yang selama ini dikeluhkan para pengusaha. Hambatan membuat investasi sulit untuk tumbuh sesuai harapan pemerintah dan masyarakat.

    Dia mengatakan Kementerian ESDM akan terus menjalankan strategi supaya sektor usaha semakin makin lama semakin baik. Upaya mempermudah investasi melalui pencabutan atau penyederhanaan peraturan serta perizinan akan terus ditingkatkan.

“Bukan hanya 32 (aturan yang saat ini dicabut), mungkin seminggu-dua minggu lagi akan dikurangi lagi supaya kegiatan usaha semakin baik,” tutupnya.

Tidak relevan

    Pada kesempatan yang sama, Sekretaris Jenderal Kementerian ESDM Ego Syarial menjelaskan alasan 11, aturan di sektor migas dicabut ialah selain dikeluhkan pengusaha, juga sudah tidak relevan lagi.

    Seperti halnya Peraturan Menteri Pertambangan dan Energi Nomor 02 Tahun 1975 tentang keselamatan kerja pada pipa penyaluran serta fasilitas kelengkapan untuk pengangkutan minyak dan gas bumi di luar wilayah kerja pertambangan minyak dan gas bumi.

“Peraturan ini memang sudah tidak relevan karena sudah ada peraturan baru,” katanya.

    Kemudian, proses perizinan sektor migas juga akan disederhanakan. Ego mengatakan prinsip dasar peraturan ESDM yang tidak akan dicabut meliputi turunan dari amanat Undang-Undang Dasar tentang pengelolaan sumber daya alam yang sebesar-besarnya-untuk kesejahteraan masyarakat dan aturan tentang safety.

“Di luar itu, hal-hal yang sifatnya sudah tidak relevan dan ditengarai selama ini menghambat dunia usaha, kita cabut,” tukasnya.

Pertamina Immediately Completes Balikpapan Refinery FID



    PT Pertamina aims to finalize the final investment decision (FID) of the Balikpapan Refinery Development Master Plan (RDMP) project in the first quarter of 2018.

    Senior Vice President of Project Execution of Pertamina Pertamina Processing and Petrochemical Directorate of Pertamina Tallulembang said refinery upgrading through the RDMP project is needed to compete with other refineries in the Asia Pacific region.

    Through upgrading, Pertamina's refinery will have high complexity so that it can process crude oil from other countries that mostly have high sulfur content.

    One of the upgrading projects done by the company is in Balikpapan Refinery. Currently, the company is working on finalizing the detailed design review (FEED review) of this project.

"With the FID plan in the first quarter of 2018 and EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) award in the fourth quarter of 2018," he said.

    This is in accordance with the exposure Pertamina in Commission VII DPR RI, some time ago. The Balikpapan Phase I RDMP is targeted to be completed by 2021, increasing the company's refinery capacity by 100 thousand barrels per day (bpd). This year, the company plans to finalize the FEED review, the establishment of EPC contractors, and partner selection. While the Balikpapan Phase II RDMP is targeted to be completed by 2025.

    The RDMP program will increase the capacity and complexity of the refinery. In the first phase, Balikpapan refinery capacity will increase from 260 thousand bpd to 350 thousand bpd. In the second stage, the refinery becomes capable of processing oil until the sour type from before only medium heavy.

    The investment requirement for Balikpapan's RDMP refinery reaches US $ 4.6 billion. In detail, the first phase requires US $ 2.6 billion and the second phase of US $ 2 billion. As is known, Pertamina is working on six refinery projects at once, both new units and capacity and quality improvement of existing refineries. 

    Construction of two new units in Tuban, East Java and Bontang, East Kalimantan, and repair of four existing refineries spread across Balongan, West Java; Balikpapan, East Kalimantan; Dumai, Riau; And Cilacap, Central Java.

    The fund needed to complete this project is huge, at about US $ 30 billion. Once the Balikpapan Phase I RDMP is completed, Pertamina's refinery capacity will increase to 1.1 million bpd. Next, in 2023, RDMP Refinery Cilacap and Refinery Balongan is targeted to finish and increase the total refinery capacity to 1.3 million bpd.

    In 2024, the Tuban Grass Root Refinery (GRR) project and the Dumai Refinery RDMP are scheduled to be completed so that the refinery capacity will increase to 1.7 million bpd. Finally in 2025, GRR Bontang and RDMP Refinery of Balikpapan Phase II will be completed and Pertamina refinery capacity increased to 2 million bpd.

"For the other three megaprojects (RDMP Cilacap, Balinese RDMP, and GRR Tuban), we plan to start the BED (basic engineering design / design basic) or FEED phase this year," said Tallulembang.

Pertamina Segera Rampungkan FID Kilang Balikpapan

    PT Pertamina menargetkan dapat merampungkan keputusan investasi akhir (final investment decision/FID) proyek Refinery Development Master Plan (RDMP) Kilang Balikpapan pada kuartal pertama 2018.

    Senior Vice President Project Execution Direktorat Megaproyek Pengolahan dan Petrokimia Pertamina Ignatius Tallulembang mengatakan, upgrading kilang melalui proyek RDMP diperlukan agar dapat bersaing dengan kilang lain di wilayah Asia Pasifik.

    Melalui upgrading, kilang milik Pertamina akan memiliki kompleksitas tinggi sehingga dapat mengolah minyak mentah dari negara lain yang kebanyakan memiliki kadar sulfur tinggi.

    Salah satu proyek upgrading yang dilakukan perseroan yakni di Kilang Balikpapan. Saat ini pihaknya sedang mengerjakan finalisasi kajian ulang desain rinci (front end engineering design review/FEED review) proyek ini.

“Dengan rencana FID di kuartal satu 2018 dan EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction/rekayasa, pengadaan, dan konstruksi) award di kuartal empat 2018,” katanya.

    Hal ini sesuai dengan paparan Pertamina di Komisi VII DPR RI, beberapa waktu lalu. RDMP Kilang Balikpapan Tahap I ditargetkan selesai pada 2021 sehingga meningkatkan kapasitas kilang perseroan sebesar 100 ribu barel per hari (bph). Pada tahun ini, rencananya perseroan akan merampungkan review FEED, penetapan kontraktor EPC, dan pemilihan mitra. Sementara RDMP Kilang Balikpapan Tahap II ditargetkan selesai pada 2025.

    Program RDMP nantinya akan meningkatkan kapasitas sekaligus kompleksitas kilang. Pada tahap pertama, kapasitas Kilang Balikpapan akan naik dari 260 ribu bph menjadi 350 ribu bph. Pada tahap kedua, kilang menjadi mampu mengolah minyak hingga jenis sour dari sebelumnya hanya medium heavy.

    Kebutuhan investasi untuk RDMP Kilang Balikpapan ini mencapai US$ 4,6 miliar. Rincinya, tahap pertama membutuhkan US$ 2,6 miliar dan tahap kedua US$ 2 miliar. Seperti diketahui, Pertamina mengerjakan enam proyek kilang sekaligus, baik unit baru maupun peningkatan kapasitas dan kualitas dari kilang yang ada. Pembangunan dua unit baru di Tuban, Jawa Timur dan Bontang, Kalimantan Timur, serta perbaikan empat kilang eksisting yang tersebar di Balongan, Jawa Barat; Balikpapan, Kalimantan Timur; Dumai, Riau; Serta Cilacap, Jawa Tengah.

    Dana yang dibutuhkan untuk merampungkan proyek ini sangat besar, yakni sekitar US$ 30 miliar. Begitu RDMP Kilang Balikpapan Tahap I selesai, kapasitas kilang Pertamina akan naik menjadi 1,1 juta bph. Berikutnya, pada 2023, RDMP Kilang Cilacap dan Kilang Balongan ditargetkan selesai dan meningkatkan total kapasitas kilang menjadi 1,3 juta bph.

    Pada 2024, Proyek Grass Root Refinery (GRR) Tuban dan RDMP Kilang Dumai dijadwalkan rampung sehingga kapasitas kilang naik menjadi 1,7 juta bph. Terakhir pada 2025, GRR Bontang dan RDMP Kilang Balikpapan Tahap II bakal selesai dan kapasitas kilang Pertamina meningkat mencapai 2 juta bph.

“Untuk tiga megaproyek lainnya (RDMP Cilacap, RDMP Balongan, dan GRR Tuban), kami berencana untuk memulai fase BED (basic engineering design/ desain dasar) atau FEED tahun ini,” tutur Tallulembang.

32 EMR Regulation Delete



    The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) revoked 32 regulations to increase investment in this sector. For the oil and gas sector, for example, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources targets an increase in investment of 67.38% to US $ 17.04 billion or around Rp 228.9 trillion this year.

    ESDM Minister Ignatius Jonan said, according to President Joko Widodo's direction, his side is trying to encourage investment to support economic growth and job creation. The reason, although macro indicators continue to improve, the national economic growth is still at 5.2% level.

 


"This (economic growth) to be higher, one of them by reducing licensing, reducing regulations that are seen to encourage business activities and investing, especially from the business sector for the longer the better," said Jonan.

    He explained that in total there are 32 regulations in ESDM sector revoked. There are 11 regulations in the oil and gas sector, 4 electrical regulations, 7 mineral and coal regulations (minerba), 7 New Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation (EBTKE) regulations, and 3 regulations of the Special Operations Unit for Upstream Business Activities Oil and Gas (SKK Migas). As a result, many licenses based on these rules will be removed.

"This will continue to be done, not just 32 regulations. Maybe in the next 1-2 weeks will be reduced again so that the longer the business activities the better, "said Jonan.

    Secretary General concurrently Acting Director General of Oil and Gas Directorate General of ESDM Ego Syahrial explains, there are three principles that it holds in revoking the rules. First, for matters of the nature of the Constitution (the Constitution), will not be revoked. Secondly, all security-related regulations will also not be revoked. Thirdly, Regulations on governance will also be maintained.

"Beyond that, which is not relevant to the development, Zaman, which allegedly has been hindering the business world to get permission and so on, we pull out," he said.

    In the oil and gas sector, some regulations are revoked because they are irrelevant or there are new regulations governing the details. Some of these regulations, namely Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation 8/2005 have been regulated in more detail in Ministerial Regulation 52/2017, 44/2005 and Ministerial Regulation 26/2006 has been updated in detail in Presidential Regulation 191/2014, Ministerial Regulation 22/2008 has been regulated in detail in Government Regulation 27/2017, and Ministerial Regulation 22/2016 is included in Ministerial Regulation 35/2016.

    However, there are regulations that are revoked. Some of these regulations are Ministerial Regulation 51/2017 on the Guidance and Governance of State Property on Upstream Oil and Gas Activities and Ministerial Regulation 2/2008 on. Implementation of Obligation of Fulfillment of Domestic Oil and Gas Needs by Cooperation Contract Contractor (KKKS).

"In addition to revoked (regulations), in a week we will try to simplify the six regulations into three," said Ego.
The same is true in the minerals and coal sectors. According to the Director General of Minerba Bambang Gatot, Minister of Mining and Energy Decree 2555.K / 1993, 1614/2004, 134.K / 201 / MPE / 1996, and 2202.K / 201 / MPE / 1994 revoked because it is irrelevant and has been replaced become Ministerial Regulation 34/2017 on Licensing of Mineral and Coal Field.

    Subsequently, the Decree of the Minister of Mining and Energy 135.K / 201 / MPE / 1996, 103.K / 008 / MPE / 1994, and 620.K / 008 / MPE / 1994 was revoked in light of new regulations. Furthermore, it will also simplify some rules, namely by combining or eliminating certain regulations.

"At least another week, maybe we will issue a Ministerial Regulation upstream, which is more or less to remove the six rules," he said.

    In EBTKE sector, Director General of EBTKE Rida Mulyana said, four regulations were revoked because they are no longer relevant to be implemented. These four regulations are Regulation of the Minister of EMR 13/2013, 14/2016, 11/2009, and 18/2012. While the three Ministerial Regulations, namely Minister Regulation 19/2015, 19/2016, and 21/2016 revoked because it has been issued Ministerial Regulation 50/2017.

"For Ministerial Regulation 11/2009 and 18/2012 will be accommodated in the Ministerial Regulation of the amendment," said Rida.

    While in the electricity sector, four regulations are revoked because there is already Law no. 30 of 2009 which regulates it. These four regulations are Regulation of the Minister of Mines and Energy 03.P / 451 / M. PE / 1991 and 02.P / 451 / M.PE / 1991, and Minister of EMR Regulation 33/2008 and 04 / 2012. Previously, 11 regulations in the electricity sector have been revoked.

    Next, in the SKK Migas environment, the three regulations that were revoked were the Governance Regulation (PTK) 12/2007, 13/2007, and 37/2017.

Better

    Contacted separately, the Chairman of Indonesia Mining Institute Irwandy Arif hopes the mining process will run better with the elimination or merging of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation. He mentioned a number of regulations related to the Contract of Work (CoW) and Working Agreement on Coal Mining Concession (PKP2B) is no longer relevant. The reason is, there is a contract amendment has been signed.

"The most important thing is the implementation of the regulation (de facto) with its own rules (de jure) must be appropriate and timely," he said.

    Meanwhile, Daily Chairman of the Association of Indonesian Private Electric Manufacturers (APLSI) Arthur Simatupang said, it is still reviewing a number of ministerial regulations ESDM. However, he has not disclosed any rules. Later, the results of the study will be submitted to the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

"We want to propose some input," he said.

Oil and Gas Investment

    The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources targets oil and gas sector investment this year to reach US $ 17.04 billion, up 67.38 percent from last year's realization of US $ 10.18 billion. Significant increase occurred in downstream oil and gas from US $ 845.58 million to US $ 2.59 billion.

    Ego Syahrial previously acknowledged that the realization of investment in the oil and gas sector is at its lowest point in 2017, due to falling crude oil prices. However, this year, oil and gas investment is expected to return the same as in 2014-2015. The realization of oil and gas investment reached US $ 20.72 billion in 2015 and fell to US $ 17.38 billion in 2014.

"In 2018, we plan upstream and downstream oil and gas investment of US $ 17.04 billion, returning to the level in 2014-2015," he said.

    Meanwhile, the government set five companies as the winners of the 15 oil and gas block auction 2017 period using the production sharing contract (PSC) for gross split for the first time.

    From this auction, the government obtained the first three year investment commitment of US $ 23.6 million. Deputy Minister of EMR Arcandra Tahar said many companies still have doubts about the gross split PSC. Some companies even ask for time to discuss these new scheme contracts together including large corporations. However, through this auction is seen there are oil and gas companies interested in doing business with gross split scheme.

"There are five companies that declare interest to run the business in the oil and gas industry of Indonesia," said Arcandra after the announcement of the winning bidder of oil and gas blocks in Jakarta.

    The gross split mechanism applies to new contracts or extended contracts. Thus, old contracts still use cost recovery mechanism.

    Pertamina became the first company to use gross splits last year for the ONWJ oil and gas block because the coincidence of his contract expired last year and extended. This is also an example for other companies. Then, this year there are five winners of oil and gas auction which will use gross split mechanism because of new contract. So, in total there are 6 companies that have used gross split.

    Ego Syahrial explains, until the deadline of the submission of the bidding document, there are seven competing that writes five blocks of oil and gas. The main competition for the Andaman Block ll, where there are three companies fighting over it.

"The total commitment value of the five oil and gas blocks is US $ 23.6 million. While the signature bonuses obtained US $ 3.25 million, "he said.

    The Andaman II Block was won by Premier Oil Consortium Far East Ltd, Kriss Energy (Andaman Il) BY and Mubadala Petroleum (Andaman Il JSA) Ltd. Mubadala pledged the first three-year commitment to 3D G & G and 3D seismic activities totaling 1,850 square kilometers (km2) worth US $ 7.55 million. While the signature bonus is given US $ 1 million.


Next, the Andaman Block won by Mubadala Petroleum (SE Asia) Ltd with a definite investment commitment of US $ 2.15 million and a signature bonus of US $ 750 thousand. Furthermore, the Merak-Lampung Block was won by PT Tansri Madjid Energi which promised an investment of US $ 1.32 million and a signature bonus of US $ 500 thousand.

    Meanwhile PT Saka Energy won the Pekawai Block and West Yamdena. In Pekawai, Saka Energi promised an investment commitment of US $ 10.45 million and a signature bonus of US $ 500 thousand. While in West Yamdena, investment commitment to be spent of US $ 2.1 million and a signature bonus of US $ 500 thousand. Ego explained, the signing of the PSC with the five winners will be done as soon as possible.

"Usually within 14 days after they receive," he said.

32 Peraturan ESDM Dicabut


    Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) mencabut 32 peraturan untuk menaikkan investasi di sektor ini. Untuk sektor migas, misalnya, Kementerian ESDM menargetkan kenaikan investasi sebesar 67,38% menjadi US$ 17,04 miliar atau sekitar Rp 228,9 triliun pada tahun ini.

    Menteri ESDM Ignasius Jonan mengatakan, sesuai arahan Presiden Joko Widodo, pihaknya berupaya mendorong investasi untuk  mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi dan penciptaan lapangan kerja. Pasalnya, meski indikator makro terus membaik, pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional masih bertahan di level 5,2%.

“Ini (pertumbuhan ekonomi) agar bisa lebih tinggi, salah satunya dengan mengurangi perizinan, mengurangi peraturan yang dipandang bisa mendorong kegiatan berusaha dan berinvestasi, terutama dari sektor usaha agar makin lama makin baik,” kata Jonan.

    Dia menjelaskan, total terdapat 32 peraturan di sektor ESDM yang dicabut. Rinciannya, sebanyak 11 peraturan di sektor minyak dan gas bumi (migas), 4 peraturan kelistrikan, 7 peraturan mineral dan batubara (minerba) , 7 peraturan Energi Baru Terbarukan dan Konservasi Energi (EBTKE), dan 3 peraturan Satuan Kerja Khusus Pelaksana Kegiatan Usaha Hulu Migas (SKK Migas).

    Dampaknya, banyak perizinan yang didasari atas peraturan-peraturan tersebut akan dihapus.

“Ini akan terus dilakukan, bukan hanya 32 peraturan. Mungkin dalam 1-2 minggu lagi akan dikurangi lagi supaya semakin lama kegiatan usaha itu semakin baik,” jelas Jonan.

    Sekretaris Jenderal merangkap Pelaksana Tugas Direktur Jenderal Minyak dan Gas Bumi Kementerian ESDM Ego Syahrial menjelaskan, terdapat tiga prinsip yang dipegang pihaknya dalam mencabut peraturan. Pertama, untuk hal-hal yang sifatnya amanat Undang-Undang Dasar (UUD) , tidak akan dicabut. Kedua, seluruh peraturan yang terkait keamanan juga tidak akan dicabut. Ketiga, Regulasi tentang governance juga akan dipertahankan.

“Di luar itu, yang sifatnya sudah tidak relevan dengan perkembangan, Zaman, yang ditengarai selama ini menghambat dunia usaha untuk mendapat izin dan lain sebagainya, kami cabut,” kata dia.

    Di sektor migas, beberapa peraturan dicabut karena sudah tidak relevan atau ada peraturan baru yang mengatur lebih detail. Beberapa regulasi ini yakni Peraturan Menteri ESDM 8/2005 sudah diatur lebih rinci dalam Peraturan Menteri 52/2017, 44/2005 dan Peraturan Menteri 26/2006 telah diperbarui dengan detail dalam Peraturan Presiden 191/2014, Peraturan Menteri 22/2008 telah diatur dengan rinci dalam Peraturan Pemerintah 27/2017, serta Peraturan Menteri 22/2016 masuk dalam Peraturan Menteri 35/2016.

    Meski demikian, ada regulasi yang memang dicabut saja. Beberapa regulasi ini adalah Peraturan Menteri 51/2017 tentang Pembinaan dan Tata Kelola Barang Milik Negara pada Kegiatan Hulu Migas dan Peraturan Menteri 2/2008 tentang. Pelaksanaan Kewajiban Pemenuhan Kebutuhan Migas Dalam Negeri oleh Kontraktor Kontrak Kerja Sama (KKKS).

“Selain dicabut (peraturan-peraturan), dalam seminggu kami akan usahakan sederhanakan enam peraturan menjadi tigas,” tutur Ego. 

Hal yang sama juga terjadi di sektor mineral dan batubara. Menurut Direktur Jenderal Minerba Bambang Gatot, Keputusan Menteri Pertambangan dan Energi 2555.K/1993, 1614/2004, 134.K/201/MPE/ 1996, dan 2202.K/201/MPE/ 1994 dicabut karena sudah tidak relevan dan telah diganti menjadi Peraturan Menteri 34/2017 tentang Perizinan Bidang mineral dan batubara.

    Berikutnya, Keputusan Menteri Pertambangan dan Energi 135.K/201/MPE/ 1996, 103.K/ 008/ MPE/ 1994, dan 620.K/ 008/ MPE/ 1994 dicabut mengingat sudah ada regulasi baru. Selanjutnya, pihaknya juga akan menyederhanakan beberapa peraturan, yakni dengan menggabungkan atau menghilangkan regulasi tertentu.

“Paling lama seminggu lagi, mungkin kami akan menerbitkan Peraturan Menteri yang bagian hulu, yang kurang lebih menghapus enam peraturan,” ujar dia.

    Di sektor EBTKE, Direktur Jenderal EBTKE Rida Mulyana menuturkan, empat peraturan dicabut karena tidak relevan lagi untuk diimplementasikan. Keempat regulasi ini adalah Peraturan Menteri ESDM 13/2013, 14/2016, 11/2009, dan 18/2012. Sementara tiga Peraturan Menteri, yakni Peraturan Menteri 19/2015, 19/2016, dan 21/2016 dicabut karena sudah diterbitkan Peraturan Menteri 50/ 2017.

“Untuk Peraturan Menteri 11/2009 dan 18/2012 nanti akan diakomodir di Peraturan Menteri perubahannya,” kata Rida.

    Sementara di sektor kelistrikan, empat peraturan dicabut karena sudah ada Undang-Undang No. 30 Tahun 2009 yang mengaturnya. Keempat regulasi ini adalah Peraturan Menteri Pertambangan dan Energi 03.P/451/M. PE/1991 dan 02.P/451/M.PE/1991, serta Peraturan Menteri ESDM 33/2008 dan 04/ 2012. Sebelumnya, 11 peraturan di sektor kelistrikan telah dicabut.

Berikutnya, di lingkungan SKK Migas, tiga regulasi yang dicabut adalah Peraturan Tata Kelola (PTK) 12/ 2007, 13/ 2007, serta 37/ 2017.

Lebih Baik

    Dihubungi terpisah, Ketua Indonesia Mining Institute lrwandy Arif berharap proses pertambangan berjalan lebih baik dengan adanya penghapusan maupun penggabungan Peraturan Menteri ESDM. Dia menyebut sejumlah peraturan terkait Kontrak Karya (KK) dan Perjanjian Karya Pengusahaan Pertambangan Batubara (PKP2B) memang sudah tidak relevan lagi. Pasalnya, sudah ada amendemen kontrak yang telah ditandatangani.

“Yang paling penting adalah implementasi peraturan tersebut (de facto) dengan peraturannya sendiri (de jure) harus sesuai dan tepat waktu,” ujar dia.

    Sementara itu, Ketua Harian Asosiasi Produsen Listrik Swasta Indonesia (APLSI) Arthur Simatupang menuturkan, pihaknya masih mengkaji sejumlah peraturan menteri ESDM. Namun, dia belum membeberkan peraturan mana saja. Nantinya, hasil kajian tersebut akan diserahkan ke Kementerian ESDM.

“Kita ingin propose beberapa masukan,” ujarnya.

Investasi Migas


    Kementerian ESDM menargetkan investasi sektor minyak dan gas bumi tahun ini mencapai US$ 17,04 miliar, naik 67,38% dari realisasi tahun lalu sebesar US$ 10,18 miliar. Kenaikan signifikan terjadi di hilir migas dari US$ 845,58 juta menjadi US$ 2,59 miliar.

    Ego Syahrial sebelumnya mengakui, realisasi investasi sektor migas berada di titik terendah pada 2017, karena jatuhnya harga minyak mentah. Namun, pada tahun ini, investasi migas diharapkan kembali sama seperti pada 2014-2015. Realisasi investasi migas tercatat mencapai US$ 20,72 miliar pada 2015 dan turun menjadi US$ 17,38 miliar pada 2014.

“Di 2018 ini, kami rencanakan investasi hulu dan hilir migas sebesar US$ 17,04 miliar, kembali ke level pada 2014-2015 lalu,” kata dia.

    Sementara itu, pemerintah menetapkan lima perusahaan sebagai pemenang dari lelang 15 blok migas periode 2017 yang menggunakan skema kontrak kerja sama (production sharing contract/PSC) bagi hasil kotor (gross split) untuk pertama kalinya.

    Dari lelang ini, pemerintah memperoleh komitmen investasi tiga tahun pertama sebesar US$ 23,6 juta. Wakil Menteri ESDM Arcandra Tahar mengatakan, banyak perusahaan yang masih memiliki keraguan dengan PSC gross split. Beberapa perusahaan bahkan sampai meminta waktu untuk mendiskusikan kontrak skema baru ini bersama-sama termasuk perusahaan besar. Meski demikian, melalui lelang ini terlihat terdapat perusahaan migas yang tertarik berbisnis dengan skema gross split.

“Ada lima perusahaan yang menyatakan berminat untuk menjalankan bisnis di industri migas lndonesia," kata Arcandra usai pengumuman pemenang lelang blok migas di Jakarta.

    Mekanisme gross split diterapkan untuk kontrak baru atau kontrak yangg diperpanjang. Jadi, kontrak-kontrak lama masih memakai mekanisme cost recovery.

    Pertamina menjadi perusahaan pertama yang menggunakan gross split tahun lalu untuk blok migas ONWJ karena kebetulan kontraknya habis tahun lalu dan diperpanjang. Ini sekaligus menjadi contoh bagi perusahaan lain. Lalu, tahun ini ada lima pemenang lelang migas yang akan menggunakan mekanisme gross split karena kontrak baru. Sehingga, total ada 6 perusahaan yang sudah menggunakan gross split.

    Ego Syahrial menjelaskan, sampai batas akhir pemasukkan dokumen penawaran, terdapat tujuh bersaing yang memperbutkan lima blok migas. Persaingan utamanya untuk Blok Andaman ll, di mana terdapat tiga perusahaan yang memperebutkannya.

“Total nilai komitinen pasti dari kelima blok migas yang dimenangkan yakni US$ 23,6 juta. Sementara bonus tanda tangan yang diperoleh US$ 3,25 juta,” ujarnya.

    Blok Andaman II dimenangkan oleh Konsorsium Premier Oil Far East Ltd, Kriss Energy (Andaman Il) BY dan Mubadala Petroleum (Andaman Il JSA) Ltd. Mubadala menjanjikan komitmen pasti tiga tahun pertama berupa kegiatan G&G dan seismik 3D seluas 1.850 kilometer persegi (km2) senilai US$ 7,55 juta. Sementara bonus tanda tangan yang diberikan US$ 1 juta.

Deregulation of ESDM Fun the President



A number of regulations revoked by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources are considered not valid for this.

    The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) continues to filter the rules considered to be a barrier to investment. After simplifying the 11 electrical rules into one rule, the ESDM Ministry has now revoked 32 more rules.

    The revoked regulation is related to the electricity, oil and gas and mineral and coal sectors. The details are 11 regulations of oil and gas sector, four sectors of electricity, and adds to the list of 11 rules of electricity sector that have been revoked previously.

    In the mineral and coal mining sector, there are seven rules, while the Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation (EBTKE) sector has seven revoked. In addition there are three rules SKK Migas cut.

    The Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Ignatius Jonan, said that the revocation of this regulation was in line with President Joko Widodo's order to smooth the entry of new investment, while encouraging economic growth and creating new jobs.

"One of President Jokowi's directions is to reduce licensing, encourage business activities and invest," said Jonan.

    Jonan promised efforts to trim the investment barrier rules do not stop here. However, he has not yet detailed the advanced rule cuts.

    Secretary General of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Ego Syahrial mentions in principle there are three things that guide the pruning of these investment inhibiting rules. First, the existing rules must be in accordance with the mandate of article 33 of the Constitution. Secondly, the rules must ensure safety and security. He also asserted the government will not revoke the rules concerning safety. Third, the rules concerning the interests of the community are many (class) or concerning good governance.

"We suspect that the 32 rules are inhibiting investment," he said.

    That's why the government continues to simplify the other rules that have been the complaint of potential investors.

It's unused

    The latest effort of the latest ESDM Ministry is still viewed skeptically by businessmen and employers' associations. They believe that deregulation in the EMR Ministry does not guarantee increased investment in the energy and mineral resources sectors.

    Moreover, some of the revoked rules have been revised or no longer valid. As a result, the benefits of deregulation times were questioned. For example, Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation no. 19/2015 on Purchase of Electricity from Power Plant (PLTS) with Capacity up to 10 Megawatt (MW) by PLN, and Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation no. 19/2016 on Purchasing of Power from Power Plant. Solar Electricity Photovoltaics by PLN. The two rules are part of 32 rules that are revoked.

    The problem, according to Riza Husni, Chairman of the Association of Water Hydro Power Developers (APPLTA), the two rules that are no longer exist or have not apply. The current regulation is the Minister of EMR Regulation 50/2017.

"The revocation of this rule is only to please President Jokowi, not to improve the investment climate," he said.

Deregulasi ESDM Menyenangkan Presiden


Sejumlah aturan yang dicabut Kementerian ESDM dinilai sudah tidak berlaku selama ini.

    Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) terus memfilter aturan yang dianggap jadi penghambat investasi. Setelah menyederhanakan 11 aturan listrik menjadi satu aturan, kini Kementerian ESDM mencabut 32 aturan lagi.

    Aturan yang dicabut itu terkait dengan sektor ketenagalistrikan, migas serta mineral dan batubara. Perinciannya, 11 peraturan sektor migas, empat sektor ketenagalistrikan, serta menambah daftar 11 aturan sektor kelistrikan yang sudah dicabut sebelumnya.

    Di sektor pertambangan mineral dan batubara, ada tujuh aturan, sedangkan sektor Energi Terbarukan dan Konservasi Energi (EBTKE) ada tujuh yang dicabut. Selain itu ada tiga aturan SKK Migas yang dipotong.

    Menteri ESDM, Ignasius Jonan menyebut, pencabutan aturan ini sesuai dengan perintah Presiden Joko Widodo agar bisa memuluskan masuknya investasi baru, sekaligus mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi dan menciptakan lapangan kerja baru.

“Salah satu arahan Presiden Jokowi agar mengurangi perizinan, mendorong kegiatan berusaha dan berinvestasi," kata Jonan.

    Jonan berjanji upaya pemangkasan aturan penghambat investasi ini tidak berhenti sampai di sini saja. Namun, ia belum memerinci pemangkasan aturan lanjutan.

    Sekretaris Jenderal Kementerian ESDM, Ego Syahrial menyebutkan pada prinsipnya ada tiga hal yang menjadi pedoman pemangkasan aturan-aturan penghambat investasi ini. Pertama, aturan yang ada harus sesuai dengan amanat UUD pasal 33. 

   Kedua, aturan harus menjamin keamanan dan keselamatan. Ia pun menegaskan pemerintah tidak akan mencabut aturan yang menyangkut keselamatan. Ketiga, aturan mengenai kepentingan masyarakat banyak (golongan) atau menyangkut tata kelola yang baik.

"Kami menengarai dari 32 aturan itu menjadi menghambat investasi," katanya.

    Karena itulah kini pemerintah terus menyederhanakan aturan-aturan lain yang selama ini menjadi keluhan calon investor.

Sudah tidak terpakai
    Upaya terbaru Kementerian ESDM terbaru ini masih dilihat skeptis oleh kalangan pengusaha dan asosiasi pengusaha. Mereka menilai, deregulasi di Kementerian ESDM tidak menjamin meningkatkan investasi di sektor energi dan sumber daya mineral.

    Apalagi, sejumlah aturan yang dicabut itu memang sudah direvisi atau tidak berlaku lagi. Alhasil, manfaat deregulasi kali pun dipertanyakan. Sebagai contoh, Peraturan Menteri ESDM No. 19/2015 tentang Pembelian Tenaga Listrik dari Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Air (PLTS) dengan Kapasitas sampai dengan 10 Megawatt (MW) oleh PLN, dan Peraturan Menteri ESDM No. 19/2016 tentang Pembelian Tenaga Listrik dari Pembangkit. Listrik Tenaga Surya Fotovoltaik oleh PLN. Dua aturan itu bagian dari 32 aturan yang dicabut.

    Persoalannya, menurut Riza Husni, Ketua Asosiasi Pengembang Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Air (APPLTA), dua aturan itu memang sudah tidak ada lagi atau sudah tidak berlaku. Sebab saat ini yang berlaku adalah Peraturan Menteri ESDM 50/2017.

"Pencabutan aturan ini hanya untuk menyenangkan Presiden Jokowi, bukan untuk memperbaiki iklim investasi, " katanya.

Selling Assures the style of Minister Jonan



    Picking up the ball and diligently interacting with the business is a separate style of Minister Ignatius Jonan in advancing the energy industry and mineral resources in the country. This time, Minister Jonan's interaction is also done overseas. During a visit from 26 January 2018-1 February 2018, a small entourage of the Minister visited three countries, namely Pakistan, Britain and Italy.


 Ignatius Jonan

In Pakistan, Jonan signed a business partnership (B to B), the Inter Government Agreement in the energy sector with Pakistan's Oil Minister Jam Kamal Khan, witnessed by President Joko Widodo on the sidelines of his visit to Islamabad.


   Both countries through Pertamina and Pakistan LNG Limited (PLL) agreed on the sale of liquefied natural gas / LNG 1 million to 1.5 million tons per year (million ton per annum / MTPA). The contract value reached US $ 6 billion.

"LNG exports to Pakistan amounted to 1.5 MTPA for 10 years, can be extended the next 5 years," said Jonan.

    Actually, cooperation between Indonesia and Pakistan is not just about buying and selling liquefied natural gas. There is also a business opportunity for Pertamina in the provision of the 3rd regasification facility (FSRU) in Pakistan as well as a number of other plans. In the handwritten notes that Jonan gave to Business, the only journalist invited on a visit to the UK, showed 11 points discussed by the Government of Indonesia and Pakistan.

    The points discussed ranged from the handling of terrorism, the sale of rice and meat, to issues of defense and Asean-Pakistan relations. After from Pakistan, Jonan and his team departed to England. Energy that is sovereign, equitable, equitable and reliable, is part of the message that Jonan brought in this overseas visit. Also accompanying Minister Jonan in London, among others, Head of SKK Migas Amien Sunaryadi, President Director of PGN Jobi Triananda Hasjim, Special Staff of International Cooperation Eddi Hariyadhi, Managing Director of Saka Energy Timbur H. Parlindungan and staff of Embassy RI in London.

    In Prince William's country, Jonan has a business meeting in two full days to convince investors in Bloomberg's Bloomberg Roundtable Policy and the Young Professionals Association of Indonesia.

    

 Robert W Dudley

    In addition, Jonan also met with BP CEO Robert W Dudley who accompanied BP Head Country Indonesia Dharmawan Samsu. The ESDM Minister also met with Premier Oil CEO Anthony R.C. Durrant and its directors.
    

 Anthony R.C. Durrant

    In the event Bloomberg, Jonan explained the serious commitment of the Government of Indonesia in improving the simplification of licensing process in energy and mineral resources so that foreign investors are interested to invest their capital in the country.

    

 Bloomberg Roundtable

    A number of improvements have been made by the government to increase the confidence of foreign investors, especially in terms of ease of doing business, to the advancement of 9 of the 12 pillars that make Indonesia's ranking rise in the Global Competitiveness Index 2017-2018.

"At the ministry I lead, licensing in the oil and gas field now only requires 6 permits from the previous 104 permits," said Jonan.

    Jonan said it also cut licensing in the field of minerals and coal to 6 permits from the previous 117 permits. Similarly, licensing in the field of electricity which is now only 5 permits. Meanwhile, new and renewable energy fields still have 10 licenses.

"But we will continue to cut and simplify the permissions."

    Jonan added that the development of electricity infrastructure in Indonesia is getting better, at least in the last two years. Electrification ratio in Indonesia at the end of 2017 reached 95.4%, up and achievement of 2016 is 91.2%. This year, the electrification ratio is expected to reach 97.5% and in 2019 could reach 99%%. However, there are still 2,519 villages that are still not getting electricity.

"Some areas still have a low electrification ratio, namely Papua 61, 42% and East Nusa Tenggara 59.85%. We will continue to focus on increasing the availability of electricity there, "said the famous minister.

    Jonan also dismissed the question of one of the participants who questioned the electricity supply in Sumatra, as well as stressed the 35,000 MW program continues to run well. A number of participants are very interested in the development of New Renewable Energy Program (EBT/NREP) in Indonesia.

    Jonan said the Indonesian government is very concerned about global climate change. President Joko Widodo strongly supports the Paris Agreement by setting a target of 23% of total national energy consumption derived from renewable energy.

    For the oil and gas sector, Jonan added that 50% of the tender during 2017 has been signed, namely the Andaman I, Iaman II, Pekawai, West Yamdena and Merak Lampung blocks.

"We make the rules that some are not favored by investors and vice versa there are profitable investors," said Jonan explained the change in cost recovery rules to the gross split scheme.

    Premier Oil CEO Anthony Durrant assesses that oil and gas investment regulations in Indonesia are getting better every year. He appreciated the fair and equitable gross split scheme. Premier Oil which has been active in Tuna PSC block and Natuna Sea Block A has won the auction for Andaman II Block.
     

Natuna Sea Block A

   Late last year we have signed a memorandum of understanding with Petrovietnam for the sale of gas from the Tuna Block. We hope this can be a basis to provide certainty in the development of gas production in Tuna, "said Durrant.


    After from London, Jonan also went to Italy. At Pizza State, he also met with Claudio Descalzi, CEO of ENI-a large Italian oil and gas company that also has a working area at Jangkrik Field.
    

  Antonio Camrnisecra

    Not only that, Jonan also met with Antonio Camrnisecra, CEO of ENEL Green Power-an Italian geothermal company with Optima Nusantara Enel winning the Way Ratai geothermal work area in Lampung. Jonan also stressed that the regulations in the field of energy and minerals will provide certainty for the long term for the investors.

"Don't worry."

    The firmness of the rules and the effort to provide confidence in business certainty has indeed become a weapon for Jonan, and other government officials to convince foreign investors. The rest, we wait for the good news.

Jualan Meyakinkan ala Menteri Jonan


    Jemput bola dan rajin berinteraksi dengan pelaku bisnis merupakan gaya tersendiri dari Menteri Ignasius Jonan dalam memajukan industri energi dan sumber daya mineral di Tanah Air. Kali ini, interaksi Menteri Jonan juga dilakukan hingga ke luar negeri. Dalam kunjungan dari 26 Januari 2018-1 Februari 2018 itu, rombongan kecil Sang Menteri mengunjungi tiga negara, yaitu Pakistan, Inggris, dan Italia.

    Di Pakistan, Jonan menandatangani kerja sama bisnis (B to B), yaitu Inter Government Agreement di sektor energi dengan Menteri Perminyakan Pakistan Jam Kamal Khan, yang disaksikan langsung oleh Presiden Joko Widodo di sela-sela kunjungan kerjanya ke Islamabad.

    Kedua negara melalui Pertamina dan Pakistan LNG Limited (PLL) menyepakati penjualan gas alam cair/LNG 1 juta-1,5 juta ton per tahun (million ton per annum/MTPA). Nilai kontraknya mencapai US$6 miliar.

“Ekspor LNG ke Pakistan sebesar 1,5 MTPA selama 10 tahun, dapat diperpanjang 5 tahun berikutnya,” ujar Jonan.
   
    Sebenarnya kerja sama Indonesia dan Pakistan tidak hanya tentang jual beli gas alam cair. Ada pula peluang bisnis bagi Pertamina dalam pengadaan fasilitas regasifikasi (FSRU) ke-3 di Pakistan serta sejumlah rencana lain. 

    Dalam catatan tulisan tangan yang Jonan berikan kepada Bisnis, satu-satunya jurnalis yang diajak dalam kunjungan ke Inggris, memperlihatkan ada 11 poin yang dibahas Pemerintah Indonesia dan Pakistan.

    Poin-poin yang dibahas mulai dari penanganan terorisme, penjualan beras dan daging, hingga isu-isu pertahanan dan hubungan Asean-Pakistan. Setelah dari Pakistan, Jonan dan timnya bertolak ke lnggris. Energi yang berkedaulatan, berkeadilan, merata dan dapat diandalkan, merupakan bagian dari pesan yang dibawa Jonan dalam kunjungan ke luar negeri kali ini. 

    Turut mendampingi Menteri Jonan di London, antara lain Kepala SKK Migas Amien Sunaryadi, Dirut PGN Jobi Triananda Hasjim, Staf Khusus bidang Kerja Sama Internasional Eddi Hariyadhi, Dirut Saka Energy Timbur H. Parlindungan, dan staf Kedubes RI di London.

    Di Negeri Pangeran William tersebut, Jonan memiliki pertemuan bisnis dalam dua hari penuh antara lain meyakinkan para investor dalam Roundtable Policy Bloomberg yang diselenggarakan Bloomberg dan Asosiasi Profesi Muda Indonesia.

    Selain itu, Jonan juga bertemu dengan CEO BP Robert W Dudley yang didampingi BP Head Country Indonesia Dharmawan Samsu. Menteri ESDM juga menyempatkan bertemu dengan CEO Premier Oil Anthony R.C. Durrant dan direksinya.

    Di acara Bloomberg, Jonan memaparkan komitmen serius Pemerintah Indonesia dalam meningkatkan penyederhanaan proses perizinan di bidang energi dan sumber daya mineral agar investor asing tertarik untuk menanamkan modalnya di Tanah Air.

    Sejumlah perbaikan telah dilakukan pemerintah untuk meningkatkan kepercayaan pemodal asing, terutama dari sisi ease of doing business, hingga kemajuan 9 dari 12 pilar yang membuat peringkat Indonesia naik dalam Global Competitiveness Index 2017-2018.

“Di kementerian yang saya pimpin, perizinan di bidang minyak dan gas sekarang hanya membutuhkan 6 izin dari sebelumnya 104 perizinan,” kata Jonan.

    Jonan mengemukakan pihaknya juga memotong perizinan di bidang mineral dan batu bara hingga 6 izin dari sebelumnya 117 izin. Begitu pula dengan perizinan di bidang kelistrikan yang kini hanya 5 izin. Adapun, bidang energi baru dan terbarukan masih ada 10 perizinan.

“Namun kami akan terus memangkas dan mempermudah perizinannya."

    Jonan menambahkan, pembangunan infrastruktur kelistrikan di Indonesia semakin baik, setidaknya dalam dua tahun terakhir. Rasio elektrifikasi di Indonesia pada akhir 2017 mencapai 95,4%, naik dan pencapaian 2016 yang 91,2%. Tahun ini, rasio elektrifikasi diharapkan mencapai 97,5% dan pada 2019 bisa mencapai 99% %. Namun, masih ada 2.519 desa yang masih belum mendapatkan pasokan listrik.

“Beberapa daerah masih ada yang rasio elektrifikasinya rendah, yaitu Papua 61 ,42% dan Nusa Tenggara Timur yang 59,85%. Kami akan terus fokus meningkatkan ketersediaan listrik di sana," kata Menteri yang terkenal lugas tersebut.

    Jonan juga menepis pertanyaan salah satu peserta diskusi yang mempertanyakan pasokan listrik di Sumatra, sekaligus menegaskan program 35.000 MW terus berjalan dengan baik. Sejumlah peserta sangat tertarik dengan perkembangan program energi baru terbarukan (EBT) di Indonesia.

    Jonan menyebutkan pemerintah Indonesia sangat perhatian terhadap perubahan iklim global. Presiden Joko Widodo sangat mendukung Paris Agreement dengan menetapkan target bagian 23% dari total konsumsi energi nasional berasal dari energi terbarukan.

    Untuk bidang migas, Jonan menambahkan 50% tender selama 2017 telah ditandatangani, yaitu blok Andaman I, Andaman II, Pekawai, West Yamdena, dan Merak Lampung.

“Kami membuat aturan memang ada yang tidak disukai investor dan sebaliknya ada yang menguntungkan investor,” kata Jonan menerangkan perubahan aturan cost recovery ke skema gross split.

    CEO Premier Oil Anthony Durrant menilai regulasi investasi minyak dan gas di Indonesia semakin baik setiap tahunnya. Dia mengapresiasi skema gross split yang berkeadilan dan memberikan kepastian. Premier Oil yang selama ini aktif di blok Tuna PSC dan Natuna Sea Block A, telah memenangkan lelang untuk Blok Andaman II.

    Akhir tahun lalu kami telah menandatangani nota kesepahaman dengan Petrovietnam untuk penjualan gas dari Blok Tuna. Kami harap ini bisa jadi basis untuk memberikan kepastian pengembangan produksi gas di Tuna,” kata Durrant.

    Setelah dari London, Jonan juga pergi ke Italia. Di Negeri Pizza tersebut, dia juga bertemu dengan Claudio Descalzi, CEO ENI-perusahaan migas besar Italia yang juga memiliki wilayah kerja di Lapangan Jangkrik.

    Tidak hanya itu, Jonan juga bertemu dengan Antonio Camrnisecra, CEO ENEL Green Power-perusahaan panas bumi Italia yang bersama Optima Nusantara Enel memenangkan wilayah kerja Panas bumi Way Ratai di Lampung.

    Jonan pun menekankan bahwa regulasi-regulasi di bidang energi dan mineral akan memberikan kepastian untuk jangka panjang bagi para pemodal.

“Tidak perlu khawatir.”

    Ketegasan aturan dan upaya memberikan keyakinan akan kepastian usaha memang telah menjadi senjata andalan bagi Jonan, dan pejabat pemerintah lain untuk meyakinkan para investor asing. Selebihnya, kita tunggu kabar baiknya.
