Through the Regulation of the Minister of EMR N08 / 2017, the end of government cost recovery schemes
Adios regime operating cost recovery or cost recovery. Wednesday (18/1) the government released Regulation No. Minister 8/2017 on Production Sharing Contracts Gross Split. Valid from January 16, 2017, oil and gas production sharing contractors skyrocketed, but there is no replacement cost of operation. Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources said Ignatius Jonan, with gross split, the government can reduce the burden on state revenue and expenditure budget (APBN). Operating costs are no longer charged to the state, but to the oil and gas contractors. Reflecting on 2016, actual cost recovery ceiling of US $ 8.4 billion, but swelled to US $ 11.4 billion. Without cost recovery undisturbed state budget again. On the other hand, contractors benefit greatly if it can improve efficiency, said Jonan. With the publication of this rule, the government can encourage interest in upstream oil and gas investment. Investment licensing process does not have to wait a year or two years, as it needs the approval of SKK Migas, "he said. In addition to cut licensing, investment inflows also pushed oil prices. Rules gross mentions split, when low oil prices, high production sharing contractors. According Jonan, if prices continue to rise, the greater the investment. If the price drops as the end of 2014 up to US $ 27 per barrel, passion down too. "We could not get anything, because oil prices are determined global market, we help of the regulations as directed by the President to make regulations that can make better investments, said Jonan. Deputy Minister Arcandra Tahar claims, wear simulation scheme using a split gross profit-sharing contract plus cost recovery had been performed on 10 oil and gas contractors. "Through the scheme as if the split gross revenue share low state. However, when using the results of cost recovery for a country still cut cost recovery as well, so only 45%," he said. Pertamina president director Dwi Soetjipto said gross scheme actually split a tough challenge for operators of oil and gas blocks. He gave the example of the Offshore North West Java (ONWJ), if calculated in the rough for Pertamina results have been less. Pertamina will improve efficiency in order to cover the revenue shortfall should come, "he said. Meanwhile, Director of the Indonesian Petroleum Association (IPA) Marjolijn Wajong said it could not give assurance about the effectiveness of the rule. Is it possible to bring in upstream oil and gas investment. "We see the market reaction when there is a tender block of oil and gas. According to him, the figures in the rules gross split does not stand alone, there must be something else that changed. It was the government's authority, they do not require the Indonesian Petroleum Association (IPA) to agree. So it's a decision government, said Marjolijn. Regulation of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources No. 8/2017 New Terms For Gas Results 1.

Inilah Akhir Rezim Cost Recovery
Lewat Peraturan Menteri ESDM N08/2017, pemerintah akhiri skema cost recovery Adios rezim pengembalian biaya operasi atau cost recovery. Rabu (18/1) pemerintah merilis Peraturan Menteri ESDM No. 8/2017 tentang Kontrak Bagi Hasil Gross Split. Berlaku mulai 16 Januari 2017, bagi hasil migas kontraktor melejit, tapi tidak ada lagi biaya penggantian operasi. Menteri ESDM Ignasius Jonan mengatakan, dengan gross split, pemerintah bisa mengurangi beban Anggaran Pendapatan dan Belanja Negara (APBN). Biaya operasi tak lagi dibebankan ke negara, tapi ke kontraktor migas. Berkaca dari tahun 2016, pagu cost recovery sebenarnya US$ 8,4 miliar, tapi membengkak menjadi US$ 11,4 miliar. Tanpa cost recovery APBN tak terganggu lagi. Di sisi lain, Kontraktor mendapatkan keuntungan besar jika bisa melakukan efisiensi, kata Jonan. Dengan terbitnya aturan ini, pemerintah bisa mendorong minat investasi hulu migas. Proses perizinan investasi tidak harus menunggu setahun atau dua tahun, karena perlu persetujuan SKK Migas,“ katanya. Selain memangkas perizinan, masuknya investasi juga di dorong tingginya harga minyak. Aturan gross split ini menyebutkan, ketika harga minyak rendah, bagi hasil kontraktor tinggi. Menurut Jonan, jika harga naik terus, investasi semakin besar. Kalau harga turun seperti akhir tahun 2014 hingga sampai US$ 27 per barel, gairahnya turun juga. "Kita tidak bisa apa-apa, karena harga migas ditentukan pasar global, kami bantu dari regulasi sesuai arahan Presiden untuk membuat regulasi yang bisa membuat investasi semakin baik, kata Jonan. Wakil Menteri ESDM Arcandra Tahar mengklaim, simulasi memakai skema gross split dengan memakai kontrak bagi hasil plus cost recovery sudah dilakukan terhadap 10 kontraktor migas. "Melalui skema gross split seolah-olah bagi hasil negara rendah. Namun saat menggunakan cost recovery bagi hasil negara yang masih dipotong cost recovery juga, jadi hanya 45%," kata dia. Direktur Utama Pertamina, Dwi Soetjipto mengatakan, skema gross split sebenarnya tantangan yang cukup berat bagi operator blok migas. la memberi contoh Blok Offshore North West Java (ONWJ), jika dihitung secara kasar bagi hasil Pertamina justru kurang. Pertamina akan melakukan efisiensi agar menutup kekurangan pendapatan yang seharusnya didapat," katanya. Sementara itu, Direktur Indonesia Petroleum Association (IPA) Marjolijn Wajong mengatakan, pihaknya belum bisa memberi kepastian soal efektivitas aturan itu. Apakah bisa mendatangkan investasi hulu migas. "Kita lihat reaksi pasar saat ada tender blok migas. Menurutnya, angka-angka dalam aturan gross split tak berdiri sendiri, harus ada hal lain yang diubah. Itu kewenangan pemerintah, mereka tidak memerlukan Indonesia Petroleum Association (IPA) untuk menyepakati. Jadi itu keputusan pemerintah, kata Marjolijn. Peraturan Menteri ESDM No. 8/2017 Ketentuan Baru Bagi Hasil Migas 1. Bagi hasil awal (base split): - Minyak bumi: 57% bagi negara dan 43% bagi kontraktor - Gas bumi: 52% bagi negara dan 48% bagi kontraktor 2. Komponen variabel adalah: Status Wilayah Kerja - Lokasi Lapangan - Kedalaman Reservoir - Jenis Reservoir Kandungan CO2 Kandungan H2S Tingkat komponen dalam negeri (TKDN 30%-49% koreksi split bagian kontraktor sebesar 2%, 50%-69% sebesar 3% dan 70%-100% sebessar 4%). 3. Komponen progresif adalah: Harga minyak bumi. Evaluasi dilakukan setiap bulan oleh SKK Migas berdasarkan perhitungan harga minyak mentah Indonesia (ICP). Jumlah kumulatif produksi minyak dan gas bumi 4. Untuk lapangan yang tidak mencapai keekonomian tertentu, menteri dapat memberikan tambahan bagi hasil paling banyak 5% kepada kontraktor. Sebaliknya, lapangan yang melebihi keekonomian tertentu, menteri dapat menetapkan tambahan persentase bagi hasil paling banyak 5% untuk negara dari kontraktor. 5. Kontraktor wajib membayar pajak penghasilan sesuai ketentuan peraturan perundang-undangan 6. Biaya operasi yang telah dikeluarkan Kontraktor dapat diperhitungkan sebagai unsur pengurang pajak penghasilan Kontraktor. 7. Kontraktor wajib memenuhi kebutuhan minyak bumi dan atau gas bumi untuk keperluan dalam negeri dengan menyerahkan 25% dari hasil produksi Migas bagian Kontraktor. Harga mengacu pada harga minyak mentah Indonesia (ICP). 8. Pengendalian dan pengawasan pelaksanaan kontrak bagi hasil gross split dilakukan SKK Migas 9. Kontrak kerjasama yang telah ditandatangani sebelum peraturan ini ditetapkan, dinyatakan tetap berlaku sampai berakhirnya masa kontrak Kontan, Page-1, Thursday, Jan, 19, 2017
Eight Oil and Gas Blocks Submitted to Pertamina The concept of gross revenue share based on the gross production of oil and gas or gross split came into force -on the Offshore North West Java which is managed by PT Pertamina Hulu Energy Offshore North West Java. Regulations regarding the scheme of the oil and natural gas models are already published. Signing the contract for the model results gross split the Offshore North West Java (ONWJ) by the Head of the Special Working Upstream Oil and Gas (SKK Migas) Amien Sunaryadi with President Director of PT Pertamina Hulu Energy Offshore North West Java (PHE ONWJ) Beni Jaffilius Ibradi. Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Ignatius Jonan, Deputy Minister Arcandra Tahar, Pertamina president director Dwi Soetjipto, as well as the Director General of Oil and Gas Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources I Gusti Nyoman Wiratmaja attended the event. With gross split models, part of the state is set at 47.5 percent and 52.5 percent for Pertamina's share of oil As for natural gas, the state's share of 37.5 percent, while 62.5 percent of Pertamina's share. Pertamina on ONWJ contract is valid for 20 years or until January 17, 2037. "The rules regarding gross've split my sign, namely the Minister Regulation No. 8 of 2017 concerning the Production Sharing Contract Gross Split. This will apply to new oil and gas contracts and renewals. Kontrak bagi results for cost recovery scheme is respected until the end of his contract, "said Jonan. With the concept of gross split, the projection part of the country until the contract is up as much as 5.7 billion US dollars of the total gross proceeds of which amounted to 14.8 billion US dollars. The value of the investment until the contract expires ONWJ estimated at 8.5 billion US dollars. "I emphasize to Pertamina so that production is not interrupted or dropped. Because of this block are 'left entirely to Pertamina, please for other companies cooperating with notes stock portion of a 10 percent participation, "said Jonan. Operating Efficiency Dwi said that, with the adoption of gross split for the first time, he considered it a challenge for Pertamina. One way is to increase efficiency in terms of operation. She targets a similar cost efficiencies created by the addition of 5 percent revenue share. "Handing ONWJ to Pertamina is expected to raise the contribution of oil and gas production, Pertamina is currently only 24 percent of the national oil and gas production," said Dwi. Lecturer at Trisakti University, Jakma, Pri Agung Rakhmanto, say, the concept of gross split should not be applied to all oil and gas contracts in Indonesia. This concept should be offered as a selection of One form of contracts. We recommend that the concept of gross split applied selectively to the oil and gas blocks to attract investment and exploration. All can not be equated. Therefore, the figures for gross results in the split should be something that can be negotiated, not the direction of the government, "said Pri Agung. Previously, the composition of ownership in ONWJ consists of PT PHE ONWJ amounted to 58.28 percent, Energi Mega Persada ONWJ Ltd with 36.72 percent, and KUFPEC Indonesia BV 5 percent. Futures on the ONWJ ended on January 18, 2017. Under the new contract was signed, the government is fully devolved management ONWJ to PT PHE ONWJ as 100 percent shareholder. Oil production in ONWJ as much as 35,800 barrels per day and natural gas as much as 155 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD). The government also handed over the management of eight oil and gas blocks to Pertamina. The eighth is going to block the expiration of his contract this year and next year. IN INDONESIAN
Bagi Hasil Kotor Resmi Berlaku
Delapan Blok Migas Diserahkan ke Pertamina Konsep bagi hasil kotor berdasar produksi bruto minyak dan gas bumi atau gross split mulai berlaku -pada Blok Offshore North West Java yang dikelola PT Pertamina Hulu Energi Offshore North West Java. Peraturan mengenai skema bagi hasil minyak dan gas bumi model tersebut sudah diterbitkan. Penandatanganan kontrak bagi hasil model gross split Blok Offshore North West Java (ONWJ) oleh Kepala Satuan Kerja Khusus Pelaksana Kegiatan Usaha Hulu Minyak dan Gas Bumi (SKK Migas) Amien Sunaryadi dengan Direktur Utama PT Pertamina Hulu Energi Offshore North West Java (PHE ONWJ) Beni Jaffilius Ibradi. Menteri Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) Ignasius Jonan, Wakil Menteri ESDM Arcandra Tahar, Direktur Utama Pertamina Dwi Soetjipto, Serta Direktur Jenderal Minyak dan Gas Bumi Kementerian ESDM I Gusti Nyoman Wiratmaja hadir dalam acara itu. Dengan model gross split, bagian negara ditetapkan sebesar 47,5 persen dan bagian Pertamina 52,5 persen untuk minyak Adapun untuk gas bumi, bagian negara sebesar 37,5 persen, sedangkan bagian Pertamina 62,5 persen. Kontrak Pertamina pada Blok ONWJ tersebut berlaku selama 20 tahun atau hingga 17 Januari 2037. ”Aturan mengenai gross split sudah saya tanda tangani, yaitu Peraturan Menteri ESDM Nomor 8 Tahun 2017 tentang Kontrak Bagi Hasil Gross Split. Ini akan berlaku bagi kontrak migas yang baru dan perpanjangan. Untuk kontrak bagi hasil skema cost recovery tetap dihormati sampai habis kontraknya,” ujar Jonan. Dengan konsep gross split, proyeksi bagian negara hingga kontrak habis sebanyak 5,7 miliar dollar AS dari total hasil kotor yang sebesar 14,8 miliar dollar AS. Adapun nilai investasi hingga kontrak Blok ONWJ berakhir diperkirakan sebanyak 8,5 miliar dollar AS. "I emphasize to Pertamina so that production is not interrupted or dropped. Because of this block are 'left entirely to Pertamina, please for other companies cooperating with notes stock portion of a 10 percent participation, "said Jonan. Efisiensi Operasi Dwi mengatakan, dengan penerapan gross split untuk pertama kali tersebut, ia menganggap hal itu sebagai tantangan bagi Pertamina. Salah satu caranya adalah dengan meningkatkan efisiensi dalam hal operasi. Ia menargetkan efisiensi yang diciptakan setara dengan penambahan bagi hasil 5 persen. ”Penyerahan Blok ONWJ kepada Pertamina diharapkan dapat menaikkan kontribusi produksi migas Pertamina yang saat ini baru 24 persen dari seluruh produksi migas nasional,” kata Dwi. Pengajar di Universitas Trisakti, Jakma, Pri Agung Rakhmanto, mengatakan, konsep gross split sebaiknya tidak diberlakukan terhadap seluruh kontrak migas di Indonesia. Konsep ini sebaiknya ditawarkan sebagai Salah satu bentuk pilihan kontrak saja. Sebaiknya konsep gross split diterapkan secara selektif terhadap blok migas untuk menarik minat investasi dan eksplorasi. Semua tidak bisa disamakan. Karena itu, angka-angka bagi hasil dalam gross split sebaiknya menjadi sesuatu yang bisa dinegosiasikan, bukan searah dari pemerintah,” kata Pri Agung. Sebelumnya, susunan kepemilikan saham pada Blok ONWJ terdiri dari PT PHE ONWJ sebesar 58,28 persen, Energi Mega Persada ONWJ Ltd 36,72 persen, dan KUFPEC Indonesia BV 5 persen. Kontrak pada Blok ONWJ berakhir pada 18 Januari 2017. Dalam kontrak baru yang ditandatangani tersebut, pemerintah menyerahkan sepenuhnya pengelolaan Blok ONWJ kepada PT PHE ONWJ sebagai pemilik saham 100 persen. Produksi minyak di Blok ONWJ sebanyak 35.800 barrel per hari dan gas bumi sebanyak 155 juta standar kaki kubik per hari (MMSCFD). Pemerintah juga menyerahkan pengelolaan delapan blok migas kepada Pertamina. Kedelapan blok tersebut bakal habis masa berlaku kontraknya tahun ini dan tahun depan.

First Use Scheme Gross Split The Ministry of Energy and Pertamina yesterday (18/1) signed production sharing contracts (production sharing contract / PSC) Offshore Northwest lava (ONWJ). The contract duration of 20 years is the first contract using the gross method split in lieu of a method of cost recovery. EMR Minister Ignasius Jonan said the cooperation contract (PSC), which want to extend the management of oil and gas blocks can choose the method of cost recovery (doubling of operating expenses) and gross split Jonan admitted, no doubt from a number of parties about the lack of state authority when applying the method of gross PSC split. "But, with the new scheme, the costs are the responsibility of the contractor to no longer burden the state budget. The government just received a clean according to the percentage share details. The government also provides special terms to Pertamina to maintain production levels ONWJ, even expected to continue to rise. Pertamina had the right look for partners to manage ONWJ. "Pertamina welcome to share down or take back its partners who used to work together," said Jonan. Prior to termination of the contract, Pertamina Hulu Energi ONWJ manage with 58.28 percent participating interest. Mitra Energi Mega Persada Pertamina is ONWJ [36.72 percent] and Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company (5 percent). Share down Pertamina partners will be limited to a maximum of 25 percent. Pertamina also required to submit a 10 percent participating interest to local owned enterprises (BUMN), West Java. The state-owned oil companies are also obliged to run a firm commitment (firm commitment) in the form of an investment of USD 82.3 million within the next three years.

We believe we can manage ONWJ well and will make a positive contribution to the improvement of the national oil and gas production, "said Pertamina President Director Dwi Soetjipto. Until the end of 2016, PHE ONWJ production has reached the level of oil production of 35.8 thousand barrels per day (bpd) and gas production of 155 million cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) IN INDONESIAN
Pertamina Kelola Penuh Blok ONWI
Pertama Gunakan Skema Gross Split
Kementerian ESDM dan PertaMina kemarin (18/ 1) menandatangani kontrak bagi hasil (production sharing contract/PSC) Blok Offshore Northwest Java (ONWJ). Kontrak berdurasi 20 tahun tersebut adalah kontrak pertama yang menggunakan metode gross split sebagai pengganti dari metode cost recovery. Menteri ESDM Ignasius Jonan mengungkapkan, kontraktor kontrak kerja sama (KKKS) yang hendak memperpanjang pengelolaan blok migas dapat memilih metode cost recovery (penggandaan biaya operasional) maupun gross split. Jonan mengakui, ada keraguan dari sejumlah pihak tentang kurangnya kewenangan negara bila menerapkan metode PSC gross split. "Tapi, dengan skema baru, biaya menjadi tanggung jawab kontraktor sehingga tidak lagi membebani APBN. Pemerintah hanya terima bersih sesuai dengan persentase pembagian jelasnya. Pemerintah juga memberikan syarat khusus kepada Pertamina untuk mempertahankan tingkat produksi Blok ONWJ, bahkan diharapkan terus naik. Pertamina pun berhak mencari mitra untuk mengelola Blok ONWJ. ”Pertamina dipersilakan share down atau ajak kembali mitranya yang dulu pernah bekerja sama,” tutur Jonan. Sebelum terminasi kontrak, Pertamina Hulu Energi mengelola Blok ONWJ dengan hak partisipasi 58,28 persen. Mitra Pertamina adalah Energi Mega Persada ONWJ [36,72 persen] dan Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company (5 persen). Share down mitra Pertamina akan dibatasi maksimal 25 persen. Pertamina juga diwajibkan menyerahkan 10 persen hak partisipasi kepada badan usaha milik daerah (BUMD) Jawa Barat. Perusahaan minyak pelat merah itu pun wajib menjalankan komitmen pasti (firm commitment) berupa investasi USD 82,3 juta dalam waktu tiga tahun mendatang. Selama masa kontrak 20 tahim, penerimaan negara diperkirakan mencapai USD 5,7 miliar. Kami percaya bisa mengelola Blok ONWJ dengan baik dan bakal memberikan kontribusi positif bagi peningkatan produksi migas nasional,” kata Direktur Utama Pertamina Dwi Soetjipto. Hingga akhir 2016, produksi PHE ONWJ telah mencapai tingkat produksi minyak 35,8 ribu barel per hari (bph) dan produksi gas 155 juta kaki kubik per hari (mmscfd) Jawa Pos, Page-6, Thursday, Jan, 19, 2017
The share of the state in oil and gas exploration with grass pattern split increased following the signing of new contracts Offshore North West Java block. In the production sharing contract gross telsebut first split, oil split final scheme specified parts of the government 42.5% and 57.5% contractors. For gas, the government's share of 37.5% and 62.5% contractors. For comparison, the cost recovery scheme, based on data from the Ministry of Energy, total revenue and ONWJ oil production by 2015 as many as 24 137 barrels with a value of US $ 1.087 billion. The government gets revenue 437.92 million, or 40.2%, while the contractor US $ 90.11 million or 8.3%. However, the government must issue production costs refunded (cost recovery) US $ 559.40 million, or 51.5% so that the contractor plus production costs to 59.8%. The Government through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources approved the split of gross production sharing contract oil and gas blocks located in the Java Sea in the north a thousand islands through northern waters of Cirebon with a total area of 8,300 Km2 The agreement was signed on Wednesday (18/1), the Office of Energy and Mineral Kemementerian by SKK Migas Head Amien Direkur Sunaryadi and PT Pertamina Hulu Energi ONWJ Beni Jaffilius Ibradi witnessed by Minister Ignatius Jonan. Jonan targets the production of the block is not decreased. In a sign tanganinya new contract on ONWJ require that the company maintain oil production at approximately 36,000 bare-per-day (bpd) and gas 172 million standard cubicfeet per day / MMscfd gas in 2017. In addition to a commitment to maintain production, the company must pay a signature bonus of US $ 5 million and investments during the first three years of US $ 82.3 million. Noted, 309.8 million barrels of oil reserves and 1114.9 billion cubic feet / bcf of gas. Pertamina submitted to the condition that the production should not be dropped, then Pertamina welcome to share down or take back its partners who used to work together, "he said. President Director of PT Pertamina Soetjipto admitted the company must do a minimum of 5% efficiency so that the development of the working area run in accordance with the economic scale of the split that has been assigned to a manager ONWJ during the next 20 years (until 2037). Another way that will be done, the company will offer the shares (share down) to the existing contractor to re-engage in the management of the block, such as PT Energi Mega Persada Tbk., A unit of the Bakrie Group with ownership limit the maximum participation of 25%. "Split [for hasill still lacking, but we still try to cover with efficiency. There are things that could be improved on certain aspects that arise, but it and split it there is 5% which should be covered with efficiency, "said Dwi. PT Pertamina Upstream Director Syamsu Alam added application gross PSC split makes the company should be more careful. Pasahlya, now all of the risks arising from upstream activities are the responsibility of the contractor, PT Pertamina Hulu Energi ONWJ, a subsidiary of Pertamina. According to him, with a gross imposition split, the contractor should bear a greater risk when compared with the implementation of cost recovery PSC governments to bear the risk. This, he said, which gives space to be a challenge. If in the past we may dare to take the risk is big because 80% of the share also to the government. If now its 100% risk-investors. Vice Chairman of Commission VII Satya W Yudha hope with the new scheme the contractor demanded more careful in running the upstream activities of oil and gas. Make contractors more prudent and cautious. If now, the important thing SKK Migas give approval, has been that losses are both, he said. Chairman of the Energy and Mineral Resources inclusive Contractors Indonesia Employers Association (Apindo) Sammy Hamzah said the increased risk of development must be balanced with the compensation awarded to develop an oil and gas field. On the other hand, application of the gross split had been awaited by businesses, especially the developing area of oil and gas non-conventional. IN INDONESIAN
Bagian Negara Membesar
Porsi bagi hasil negara dalam eksplorasi migas dengan pola grass split meningkat menyusul ditandatanganinya kontrak baru blok Offshore North West Java. Dalam kontrak bagi hasil gross split yang pertama telsebut, skema final split minyak bagian pemerintah ditetapkan 42,5 % dan kontraktor 57,5 %. Untuk gas, bagian pemerintah 37,5% dan kontraktor 62,5%. Sebagai pembanding, dengan skema cost recovery, berdasarkan data Kementerian ESDM, total pendapatan dan produksi minyak Blok ONWJ pada 2015 sebanyak 24.137 barel dengan nilai US$1,087 miliar. Pemerintah mendapatkan pendapatan 437,92 juta atau 40,2%, sedangkan kontraktor US$ 90,11 juta atau 8,3%. Namun, pemerintah harus mengeluarkan biaya produksi yang dikembalikan (cost recovery) US$ 559,40 juta atau 51,5 % sehingga bagian kontraktor ditambah biaya produksi menjadi 59,8%. Pemerintah melalui Kementerian ESDM menyetujui kontrak bagi hasil gross split blok migas yang terletak di laut Jawa di utara kepulauan seribu sampai perairan utara cirebon dengan total luas 8.300 Km2 Penandatanganan dilakukan Rabu (18/1), di Kantor Kemementerian ESDM oleh Kepala SKK Migas Amien Sunaryadi dan Direkur Utama PT Pertamina Hulu Energi ONWJ Beni Jaffilius Ibradi disaksikan oleh Menteri ESDM Ignasius Jonan. Jonan menargetkan produksi blok tersebut tak mengalami penurunan. Di tanda tanganinya kontrak baru atas ONWJ mengharuskan perseroan tetap menjaga produksi minyak di angka 36.000 bare per hari (bpd) dan gas 172 million standard cubicfeet per day/MMscfd gas pada 2017. Selain komitmen mempertahankan produksi, perseroan harus membayar bonus tanda tangan sebesar US$5 juta dan investasi selama tiga tahun pertama yakni US$ 82,3 juta. Tercatat, cadangan minyak 309,8 juta barel dan 1.114,9 billion cubic feet/bcf gas. Diserahkan ke Pertamina dengan syarat, produksi tidak boleh turun, kemudian Pertamina dipersilahkan share down atau ajak kembali mitranya yang dulu kerja bersama,” katanya. Direktur Utama PT Pertamina Dwi Soetjipto mengakui perseroan harus melakukan efisiensi minimal 5% agar pengembangan wilayah kerja berjalan sesuai dengan skala ekonomi dari split yang telah ditetapkan untuk pengelola ONWJ selama 20 tahun ke depan (hingga 2037). Cara lain yang akan di lakukan, perseroan akan menawarkan saham (share down) kepada kontraktor eksis untuk kembali terlibat dalam pengelolaan blok itu, seperti PT Energi Mega Persada Tbk., unit usaha Grup Bakrie dengan batas kepemilikan saham partisipasi maksimal 25%. “Split [bagi hasill masih kurang, tetapi kami masih upayakan untuk tutup dengan efisiensi. Ada hal-hal yang bisa diperbaiki dari aspek tertentu yang muncul, tetapi dan split itu ada 5% yang harus ditutup dengan efisiensi,” kata Dwi. Direktur Hulu PT Pertamina Syamsu Alam menambahkan penerapan PSC gross split membuat perseroan harus lebih berhati-hati. Pasahlya, kini seluruh risiko yang timbul atas kegiatan usaha hulu menjadi tanggung jawab kontraktor yakni PT Pertamina Hulu Energi ONWJ, anak perusahaan Pertamina. Menurutnya, dengan pemberlakuan gross split, kontraktor harus menanggung risiko yang lebih besar bila dibandingkan dengan penerapan PSC cost recovery pemerintah untuk turut menanggung risiko. Hal tersebut, katanya, yang memberi ruang kepada menjadi tantangan tersendiri. Kalau dulu mungkin kami berani mengambil risikonya lebih gede karena 80% di share juga ke government. Kalau sekarang risk-nya 100% investor. Wakil Ketua Komisi VII DPR Satya W Yudha berharap dengan skema baru kontraktor dituntut semakin hati-hati dalam menjalankan kegiatan usaha hulu minyak dan gas bumi. Membuat kontraktor lebih prudent dan hati-hati. Kalau sekarang, yang penting SKK Migas memberikan approval, sudah kalau rugi ditanggung berdua, katanya. Ketua Bidang Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral Asosiasi Pengusaha In Kontraktor Indonesia (Apindo) Sammy Hamzah mengatakan bertambahnya risiko pengembangan harus di imbangi dengan kompensasi yang diberikan untuk mengembangkan suatu lapangan migas. Di sisi lain, penerapan gross split sudah ditunggu oleh pelaku usaha khususnya yang mengembangkan wilayah kerja minyak dan gas non-konvensional. Bisnis Indonesia, Page-1, thursday, Jan, 19, 2017
The government is still waiting for the completion of the study Inpex Corporation conducts pre-Front End Engineering Design (FEED) for the Masela block. Inpex Corporation is a company managing the construction of liquid gas plant natural gas / LNG Plant Masela. The government predicts the time it takes investors completed the pre-FEED for more than six months. The phase includes determining the location, the capacity of the refinery, to the development plan concerning the petrochemical industry. After the pre-FEED, FEED and the process continues to delivery of the Final Investment Decision / PID scheduled for 2019 so that the first gas production (on stream) can run in 2026. "We are waiting for them (Inpex) completed pre-FEED, from there it will be seen how the direction development. Pre-FEED as soon as possible, may be more than six month, "said Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arcandra Tahar Changes in development schemes liquefied natural gas originally known floating into land-based impacts on the addition of corporate capital spending and a project that is considered delayed. Therefore, Inpex has proposed several incentives to the government that sparked hard of debate. One of them is the increase in the refinery capacity of 7.5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to 9.5 MTPA plus gas production of 150 million cubic feet per day (MMSCED). Meanwhile, the scenario offered by the government is 7.5 MTPA plus 474 MMSCFD gas production. "Inpex want to 9.5 MTPA to be exported. Meanwhile, we have a scenario of 7.5 MTPA to advance downstream, "said Senior Arcandra Communication Manager Usman Slamet Inpex Corporation declined to comment further. "We asked for 10 years calculated from the first time the government approved for development in the sea in 2007 until 2017," said Usman IN INDONESIAN
Pemerintah Tunggu Hasil Kajian Inpex
Pemerintah masih menunggu Inpex Corporation melakukan penyelesaian kajian pre-Front End Engineering Design (FEED) untuk Blok Masela. Inpex Corporation merupakan perusahaan pengelola pembangunan kilang gas liquid natural gas/LNG Plant Blok Masela. Pemerintah memprediksi waktu yang dibutuhkan investor merampungkan pre-FEED lebih dari enam bulan. Fase tersebut mencakup penentuan lokasi, kapasitas kilang, hingga rencana pengembangan yang menyangkut industri petrokimia. Setelah pre-FEED, proses berlanjut ke FEED dan penyampaian Final Investment Decision/PID yang dijadwalkan 2019 sehingga produksi gas pertama (on stream) dapat berjalan pada 2026. “Kita tunggu mereka (Inpex) selesaikan pre-FEED, dari situ akan terlihat bagaimana arah pengembangannya. Pre-FEED as soon as possible, mungkin bisa lebih dari enam bulan,” ujar Wakil Menteri Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) Arcandra Tahar Perubahan skema pengembangan kilang gas alam cair yang semula terapung menjadi berbasis darat diketahui berdampak terhadap penambahan belanja modal perusahaan dan masa pengerjaan proyek yang ditengarai molor. Maka dari itu, Inpex telah mengajukan beberapa insentif kepada pemerintah yang memantik perdebatan yang keras. Salah satunya mengenai peningkatan kapasitas kilang dari 7,5 juta ton per tahun (MTPA) menjadi 9,5 MTPA ditambah produksi gas 150 juta kaki kubik per hari (MMSCED). Adapun, skenario yang ditawarkan pemerintah ialah 7,5 MTPA ditambah produksi gas 474 MMSCFD. “Inpex ingin 9,5 MTPA agar bisa diekspor. Sedangkan, kita punya skenario 7,5 MTPA untuk memajukan hilirisasi,” ujar Arcandra Senior Communication Manager Inpex Corporation Usman Slamet enggan berkomentar lebih jauh. “Kami minta 10 tahun dihitung dari pertama kali pemerintah menyetujui untuk pengembangan di laut pada 2007 sampai 2017,” ujar Usman Media Indonesia, Page-17, Wednesday, Jan, 18, 2017
Several countries in the Middle East is committed to helping Indonesia to build infrastructure in the energy sector. Energy potential in every region in Indonesia is different. Therefore, the policy in the energy sector implemented by the government is to optimize this potential by inviting investors from oil-rich countries in the Middle East. It was made the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Ignatius Jonan to entrepreneurs and officials of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, and Qatar on the sidelines of the event Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week and World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi on Monday night (16/1) . "Indonesia wants to get cheap energy from domestic, Development costs are expensive, but we should strive to be more efficient and economical," said Jonan. Jonan exemplifies southern Sumatra and Kalimantan as a producer of coal. In both regions, the government build a coal-based power plants. Likewise, in the gas-producing areas in the development thrust of investors from the Middle East to participate in investing in renewable energy sector (EBT) as well as in other sectors. When he met with the Minister of Energy and Industry of Qatar Abdulla Mohammed Saleh Al-Sada, Jonan received project funding certainty steam gas power plant in North Sumatra berka- capacities 2 x 250 megawatts worth Rp 7 trillion. Moreover, Indonesia had a chance purchase direct LPG and liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the oil and gas rich countries in the region, In a meeting with the Minister of Energy, Industry and Mineral Resources of Saudi Arabia Khalid A. Al-Falih, Jonan ask for the application of the special price of oil imports from the country's petrodollars and ensure continuity RFCC Cilacap refinery project with an investment of Rp 80 trillion. "We also offer to be involved in the development of Saudi Aramco refinery Dumai, Riau, and Balongan," said jonan. PT Pertamina president director Dwi Soetjipto ask Al-Sada facilitate Pertamina to be able to import LPG and LNG from Qatar without intermediaries. "The need for our LPG increases. We can maximize the supply of the domestic first. However, if it is cheaper imported gas, opens the possibility of imports. Al-Sada also promised to send a team from Qatar Petroleum to discuss it all with Pertamina. Imports of LPG Vice President of Integrated Supply Chain Pertamina Daniel Purba said that this year imports of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) Indonesia increased from 60% to 70% of the requirement. In 2016 the need of LPG in the country recorded 6.57 million tonnes and more than half, ie 4.37 million tonnes imported. "We are increasingly dependent on imports for consumption of LPG for domestic sources are limited. Today, most of the imports came from the Middle East, "said Daniel Purba in the event of LPG Indonesia Forum. Deputy CEO Ahmad Bambang emphasized the continued increase in imports of LPG fueled increased consumption. In 2007 only 1 million tons. In 2016 to 7 million tons, up 700% Improvement was fairly reasonable for the government to direct people to switch to energy-saving and clean. IN INDONESIAN
Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources requested operator Masela block in the Arafura Sea, Inpex, conduct pre Study of front-end engineering design (pre-FEED). The goal was to determine the best scheme so that gas can be immediately aspirated. "If necessary, Inpex tomorrow can start to study," said Arcandra Government and Inpex agreed on the Abadi field gas production reached 10.5 million tonnes million tonnes per year (metric tons per annual / MTPA) to refineries onshore. But the two sides have not agreed on development schemes since narrowed to two options. Two options that needs to be investigated for feasibility by the contractor first option, then aspirated gas is sold in liquid form (liquid natural gas) refineries with a capacity of 7.5 MTPA. The rest, 474 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) or the equivalent of 3 million MTPA, channeled through a pipe or CNG (compressed natural gas). The second option is the development of a gas pipeline of 150 MMSCFD (1 MTPA). Most of the production is directed into the shape of 9.5 MTPA of LNG, Arcandra more inclined to choose the first scheme. Thus, the petrochemical industry is likely to grow. Currently, there is only one producer of polyethylene and polypropylene industry, raw material plastics factory, PT Chandra Asri. "Thailand has seven petrochemical industry, he said. He admitted least absorbent industry also affects the certainty of gas sales. That is a problem that must be solved Arcandra Inpex in the study. If most of the produced gas to LNG, he worried about the results of Indonesia's natural gas instead enjoyed by importers of gas. Arcandra predicts that much gas actually enjoyed Japan. Inpex also asked to assess the best location for the placement of the refinery. Two places that are currently considered feasible is Tanimbar Islands and the Aru Islands. The government rejected the request Inpex, which proposes the replacement of the production period of 10 years. Earlier, the Director of Upstream Oil and Gas, Single, said the moratorium proposal was born due to gas Masela until now has not been vacuumed. Though already in production contracts signed in 2007. With the target of the development plan could be signed before 2019, gas production began only in 2026. This deadline, according Tunggal, Inpex considered too close to the expiration time of the contract in 2028. If the moratorium is approved, the 2007-2017 production period Inpex considered a failure. The past 10 years and then be replaced, so that Inpex contract extended until 2038. Arcandra says it can only approve the replacement of the production period of seven years. Thus, Inpex guaranteed contract extension until 2035. This agreement will be loaded through a contract amendment. Unfortunately, he was reluctant to mention the grounds for granting such time. Energy Minister Ignatius Jonan promising legal certainty for the development of the Masela through the signing of a memorandum of understanding along with Inpex before the revision of the development plan was signed. Inpex spokesman, Usman Slamet, said the company actually waiting for an answer about the government's proposed development project. Last letter Inpex to the Ministry of Energy on January 6, 2017. "We continue to meet with the Ministry of Energy and Oil and Gas SKK to discuss the conditions necessary for the project to achieve the economics Abadi good project," he said. Masela gas project is a strategic project because currently there are no new significant gas production. Rising demand make Indonesia threatened to 1,777 MMSCFD gas imports by 2019. IN INDONESIAN
Volume Gas Masela Disepakati
Arcandra memiliki skema pengembangan gas pipa.
Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral meminta operator Blok Masela di Laut Arafura, Inpex, melakukan Studi pre front-end engineering design (pre-FEED). Tujuannya adalah mengetahui skema terbaik supaya gas bisa segera disedot. “Kalau perlu, besok Inpex sudah bisa memulai studi,” ujar Arcandra Pemerintah dan Inpex menyepakati produksi gas Lapangan Abadi tersebut mencapai 10,5 juta ton juta ton per tahun (metrik ton per annual/MTPA) dengan kilang darat. Namun kedua belah pihak belum menyepakati skema pengembangannya karena mengerucut pada dua opsi. Dua pilihan itulah yang perlu dikaji kelayakannya oleh kontraktor Opsi pertama, gas disedot lalu dijual dalam bentuk cair (liquid natural gas) di kilang berkapasitas 7,5 MTPA. Sisanya, 474 juta standar kaki kubik per hari (MMSCFD) atau setara 3 juta MTPA, disalurkan melalui pipa atau CNG (compressed natural gas). Adapun opsi kedua adalah pengembangan gas pipa sebesar 150 MMSCFD (1 MTPA). Sebagian besar produksi diarahkan ke dalam bentuk LNG sebanyak 9,5 MTPA, Arcandra lebih condong memilih skema pertama. Dengan demikian, industri petrokimia lebih berpeluang untuk tumbuh. Saat ini, hanya ada satu industri penghasil polietilen dan polipropilen, bahan baku pabrik plastik, yaitu PT Chandra Asri. “Thailand punya tujuh industri petrokimia, ujarnya. Ia mengakui sedikitnya industri penyerap juga mempengaruhi kepastian penjualan gas. Itulah masalah yang menurut Arcandra harus dipecahkan Inpex dalam studi. Jika sebagian besar gas diproduksi untuk LNG, ia khawatir hasil gas bumi Indonesia justru dinikmati oleh importir gas. Arcandra memprediksi gas sebanyak itu justru dinikmati Jepang. Inpex juga diminta mengkaji lokasi terbaik untuk penempatan kilang. Dua tempat yang saat ini dianggap layak adalah Kepulauan Tanimbar dan Kepulauan Aru. Pemerintah menolak permintaan Inpex, yang mengusulkan penggantian masa produksi selama 10 tahun. Sebelumnya, Direktur Pembinaan Hulu Minyak dan Gas Bumi, Tunggal, mengatakan usul moratorium lahir karena gas Blok Masela sampai sekarang belum disedot. Padahal kontrak produksi sudah di teken pada 2007. Dengan target rencana pengembangan bisa diteken sebelum 2019, produksi gas baru dimulai pada 2026. Tenggat ini, menurut Tunggal, dianggap Inpex terlalu dekat dengan masa kedaluwarsa kontrak pada 2028. Jika moratorium disetujui, masa produksi Inpex pada 2007-2017 dianggap gagal. Masa tersebut kemudian diganti 10 tahun, sehingga kontrak Inpex diperpanjang sampai 2038. Arcandra mengatakan hanya bisa menyetujui penggantian masa produksi selama tujuh tahun. Dengan demikian, Inpex mendapat jaminan perpanjangan kontrak hingga 2035. Kesepakatan ini bakal dimuat melalui amendemen kontrak. Sayangnya, ia enggan menyebutkan alasan pemberian waktu tersebut. Menteri Energi Ignasius Jonan menjanjikan kepastian hukum bagi pengembangan Masela melalui penandatanganan memorandum of understanding bersama Inpex sebelum revisi rencana pengembangan diteken. Juru bicara Inpex, Usman Slamet, mengatakan perusahaan justru sedang menunggu jawaban pemerintah soal usul pengembangan proyek ini. Surat terakhir Inpex kepada Kementerian Energi pada 6 Januari 2017. “Kami terus bertemu dengan Kementerian ESDM dan SKK Migas untuk membahas kondisi yang dibutuhkan agar proyek Abadi mencapai keekonomian proyek yang baik,” katanya. Proyek gas Masela merupakan proyek strategis karena saat ini tidak ada produksi gas baru yang signifikan. Permintaan yang terus naik membuat Indonesia terancam mengimpor gas hingga 1.777 MMSCFD pada 2019. Koran Tempo, Page-13, Wednesday, Jan, 18, 2017
New Contract ONWJ Block PT Pertamina recorded imports of liquefied petroleum gas / LPG this year will reach more than 5 million metric tons, up 13.12% from last year's 4.42 million metric tons. Therefore, Pertamina will import LPG from the United States. Deputy CEO Ahmad Bambang said, the problem of supply is a key issue of the company's LPG business. Because the national needs continue to rise each year and the domestic supply continues to decrease, so that the dependence on imports is also increasing. "Of the 7 million tonnes of needs, imported LPG is already more than 65%. The tendency is the share of imports will rise from year to year. It should be solved jointly, "he said. Senior Vice President of Integrated Supply Chain Daniel Purba added that last year, imports of LPG was recorded at 66.3% of consumption. This year, Indonesia is increasingly reliant on imports to the volume that has exceeded 70%. "Import of LPG this year about 5 million metric tons, of the total estimated consumption of about 7 million metric tons," he said. With the high dependency on imports, he explained, LPG import contracts made for the medium term of about one year to make it more stable. Volume of LPG with the model contract reached 90% of total imports. While the rest, ie approximately 10%, Pertamina will buy from the spot market. So from 10 cargoes of LPG were imported each month, about 1-2 cargoes from the spot market. This is to anticipate the domestic production of LPG and downs. If it's big enough domestic production, we do not take the spot, "said Daniel. Director of Downstream Oil and Gas Directorate General of Oil and Gas Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Setyorini Tri Hutami said the government's policy is to give energy to people, Even to meet the needs to be imported. Therefore, the government continues to encourage the use of LPG as a cleaner. Except in East Indonesia, conversion to LPG already covers almost the entire area. Number of shared starter pack has reached 57 million. "So indeed LPG consumption continues to rise each year," he said. The government recorded a growth of LPG consumption reached 13% per year. In 2012, the total consumption of LPG recorded only 5 million tonnes. This figure continues to rise to 5.6 million tons in 2013, 6.09 million tons in 2014, 6.37 million tons in 2015, and touched 6.67 million tons last year. LPG imports also continue to increase following the consumption, which amounted to 2.58 million tons in 2012, 3.22 million tons in 2013, 3.7 million tons in 2014, 4 million in 2015, and 4.42 million tons last year. As in the Asia-Pacific market, imports of LPG call Daniel, most of the countries of the Middle East. However, with the operation of the Panama Canal connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic, LPG from the United States will begin to flood the Asia-Pacific market. It also will try to import LPG from the United States. "Cargo-LPG cargo from the United States is expected to more attractive so that could be a competitor sources that exist for this," he said. Daniel explained, the price of LPG from the United States more cheap predictable because using a different benchmark. During this time the price of LPG in the Asia Pacific region refers to the CP Aramco, while in the US the price of LPG based at Mont Belvieu. In the past when there was no Panama Canal, LPG imports from the United States is not economical because the cost of transportation is high enough. "LPG is very cheap and the United States competed with that of the Middle East though it was plus freight (freight) 30-day trip," he explained. Renewable energy With the reduction in the supply of LPG, the government began to look for other energy stead. One of them is by conducting a study of young converts coal into dimethyl ether is low in calories of the same nature with LPG. "It is certain that this modification (dimethyl ether) can be used in the household," he said. He said he would continue the conversion to LPG while looking for another energy that can replace LPG. Ahmad Bambang added, dimethyl ether is worth so renewables because Indonesia has the potential of young low-calorie coal is quite large. In addition, dimethyl substitute for LPG but with a cheaper price 20%. In addition, dimethyl ether has also been used as fuel for heavy trucks in the United States. "Now being studied everything, including about the technology. If the technology to change the existing one. IN INDONESIAN Kontrak Baru Blok ONWJ
Pertamina Impor LPG 5 Juta Ton
PT Pertamina mencatat impor gas minyak cair/LPG tahun ini bakal mencapai lebih dari 5 juta metrik ton, naik 13,12% dari realisasi tahun lalu 4,42 juta metrik ton. Untuk itu, Pertamina bakal mengimpor LPG dari Amerika Serikat. Wakil Direktur Utama Pertamina Ahmad Bambang mengatakan, masalah pasokan merupakan isu utama dari bisnis LPG perseroan. Pasalnya, kebutuhan nasional terus naik setiap tahunnya dan pasokan dalam negeri terus berkurang, sehingga ketergantungan impor juga terus meningkat. “Dari 7 juta ton kebutuhan, impor LPG sudah lebih dari 65%. Kecenderungannya porsi impor akan naik dari tahun ke tahun. Ini harus dipecahkan bersama-sama,” kata dia. Senior Vice President Integrated Supply Chain Daniel Purba menambahkan, pada tahun lalu, impor LPG tercatat sebesar 66,3% dari konsumsi. Pada tahun ini, Indonesia semakin bergantung pada impor dengan volumen yang sudah melebihi 70%. “Impor LPG tahun ini sekitar 5 juta metrik ton, dari total perkiraan konsumsi sekitar 7 juta metrik ton,” ujar dia. Dengan tingginya ketergantungan impor, jelas dia, kontrak impor LPG dibuat untuk jangka menengah sekitar satu tahunan agar lebih stabil. Volume LPG dengan kontrak model ini mencapai 90% dari total impor. Sementara sisanya, yakni sekitar 10%, Pertamina akan membeli dari pasar spot. Sehingga dari 10 kargo LPG yang di impor setiap bulannya, sekitar 1-2 kargo dari pasar spot. Ini untuk mengantisipasi produksi LPG dalam negeri yang naik turun. Kalau memang produksi dalam negeri cukup besar, kami tidak ambil spot,” kata Daniel. Direktur Pembinaan Hilir Migas Direktorat Jenderal Migas Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) Setyorini Tri Hutami mengatakan, kebijakan pemerintah adalah memberikan energi yang lebih baik bagi masyarakat, Walaupun untuk memenuhi kebutuhan harus dari impor. Karenanya, pemerintah terus mendorong pemanfaatan LPG karena lebih bersih. Kecuali di Indonesia Timur, konversi ke LPG sudah mencakup hampir seluruh daerah. Jumlah paket perdana yang dibagikan telah mencapai 57 juta. “Sehingga memang konsumsi LPG terus naik setiap tahunnya,” kata dia. Pemerintah mencatat pertumbuhan konsumsi LPG mencapai 13% per tahun. Pada 2012, total konsumsi LPG tercatat hanya 5 juta ton. Angka ini terus naik menjadi 5,6 juta ton pada 2013, 6,09 juta ton pada 2014, 6,37 juta ton pada 2015, dan menyentuh 6,67 juta ton pada tahun lalu. Impor LPG juga terus meningkat mengikuti konsumsi, yakni sebesar 2,58 juta ton pada 2012, 3,22 juta ton pada 2013, 3,7 juta ton pada 2014, 4 juta pada 2015, dan 4,42 juta ton pada tahun lalu. Seperti di Pasar Asia Pasifik, impor LPG sebut Daniel, sebagian besar dari negara-negara Timur Tengah. Namun dengan mulai beroperasinya Terusan Panama yang menghubungkan Samudera Pasifik dan Atlantik, LPG dari Amerika Serikat bakal mulai membanjiri Pasar Asia Pasifik. Pihaknya juga akan mencoba impor LPG dari Amerika Serikat. “Kargo-kargo LPG dari Amerika Serikat ini diharapkan lebih menarik sehingga bisa menjadi kompetitor sumber-sumber yang ada selama ini,” kata dia. Daniel memaparkan, harga LPG dari Amerika Serikat diprediksi lebih murah lantaran menggunakan patokan yang berbeda. Selama ini harga LPG di Asia Pasifik mengacu pada CP Aramco, sementara di Amerika Serikat harga LPG berpatokan pada Mont Belvieu. Dulu saat belum ada Terusan Panama, impor LPG dari Amerika Serikat tidak ekonomis lantaran biaya transportasi cukup tinggi. “LPG Amerika Serikat sangat murah dan berkompetisi dengan yang dari Timur Tengah meski sudah ditambah freight (ongkos angkut) perjalanan 30 hari,” jelasnya. Energi Pengganti Dengan semakin berkurangnya pasokan LPG, pemerintah mulai mencari energi lain sebagai penggantinya. Salah satunya yakni dengan melakukan kajian mengubah batubara muda rendah kalori menjadi dimetil eter yang sifatnya sama dengan LPG. “Perlu modifikasi tertentu agar ini (dimetil eter) bisa dipakai di rumah tangga,” kata dia. Pihaknya tetap akan melanjutkan konversi ke LPG sembari mencari energi lain yang dapat menggantikan LPG. Ahmad Bambang menambahkan, dimetil eter ini layak jadi energi pengganti lantaran Indonesia memiliki potensi batubara muda rendah kalori yang cukup besar. Selain itu, dimetil dapat menggantikan fungsi LPG namun dengan harga yang lebih murah 20%. Selain itu, dimetil eter ini juga sudah dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan bakar truk-truk besar di Amerika Serikat. “Sekarang sedang dikaji semuanya, termasuk soal teknologinya. Kalau teknologinya untuk mengubah sendiri sudah ada. Investor Daily, Page-9, Wednesday, Jan, 18, 2017
Post-break points sustainment contract for Masela for seven years, the government has not taken any other decision. Points increasing production capacity proposed by Inpex Corporation and Shell Indonesia, still floating. Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arcandra Tahar said, the government scenario was Masela LNG production capacity of 7.5 mtpa fixed and petrochemical capacity to 474 MMSCFD gas. If Inpex scenario, the production capacity of 9.5 mtpa LNG and petrochemical gas to 150 MMSCFD. Indeed, total production from both scenarios is the same, ie approximately 10.3 mtpa. The difference is, the scenario the government aims to develop the downstream sector. Hence, gas for the petrochemical industry is larger, ie 474 MMSCFD. Allocation of gas was also considering the request of the Ministry of Industry. Instead, Inpex want greater LNG production capacity, which is 9.5 mtpa. Inpex destination in order to export LNG to Japan, the country of origin. Different points of interest that make the determination Masela production capacity is still difficult. "Now we are different interests, we need petrochemicals that can produce polyethylene, polypropylene," said Arcandra, at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources In fact, this time Indonesia has only one petrochemical companies, namely PT Chandra Asri Petro-chemical Tbk. While neighboring countries such as Thailand, already has seven petrochemical companies. IN INDONESIAN
Blok Masela Macet di Penambahan Kapasitas
Pasca memutuskan poin penambahan masa kontrak untuk Blok Masela selama tujuh tahun, pemerintah belum mengambil keputusan lain. Poin penambahan kapasitas produksi yang diajukan oleh Inpex Corporation dan Shell Indonesia, masih mengambang. Wakil Menteri Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) Arcandra Tahar mengatakan, skenario pemerintah adalah kapasitas produksi LNG Blok Masela tetap 7,5 mtpa dan kapasitas gas untuk petrokimia 474 mmscfd. Kalau skenario Inpex, kapasitas produksi LNG 9,5 mtpa dan gas untuk petrokimia 150 mmscfd. Sejatinya, total produksi dari kedua skenario itu sebenarnya sama, yaitu sekitar 10,3 mtpa. Bedanya adalah, skenario pemerintah bertujuan untuk mengembangkan sektor hilir. Makanya, gas untuk industri petrokimia lebih besar yaitu 474 mmscfd. Alokasi gas itu juga mempertimbangkan permintaan Kementerian Perindustrian. Sebaliknya, Inpex ingin kapasitas produksi LNG lebih besar, yaitu 9,5 mtpa. Tujuan Inpex agar bisa mengekspor LNG ke Jepang, negara asalnya. Beda kepentingan tersebut membikin poin penetapan kapasitas produksi Blok Masela masih susah. "Sekarang kami beda kepentingan, kita butuh petrokimia yang bisa hasilkan polietilena, polipropilena," ujar Arcandra, di Kantor Kementerian ESDM Pada kenyataannya, saat ini Indonesia hanya memiliki satu perusahaan petrokimia, yaitu PT Chandra Asri Petro-chemical Tbk. Sementara negara tetangga seperti Thailand, sudah memiliki tujuh perusahaan petrokimia. Kontan, Page-14, Wednesday, Jan, 18, 2017
