OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT
Vietnam intends to buy natural gas from the Tuna Block in the Natuna Islands operated by Premier Oil Tuna B.V. Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Ignatius Jonan stated that the contractor will install a gas pipeline as long as 71 km if Vietnam will seriously absorb gas from the Tuna Block. The distance of Tuna Block gas wells to the boundary of water along the 11 km and about 60 km continued to the mainland.
"The point is that the gas from the Tuna block managed by Premier Oil through SKK Migas will sell its gas to Vietnam," said Jonan after accompanying President Joko Widodo to receive delegation of Vietnam Communist Party Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong on Tuesday (23/8).
In addition to the gas issue, the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources also said the Indonesian government cooperation on coal between Indonesia and Vietnam was also mentioned in bilateral talks. However, he said the cooperation will be implemented in business.
"This bilateral statement is only the protection of the facility so that there is the attention of these two governments, so that Indonesia's coal export to Vietnam can also run," said Jonan.
EAST NATUNA BLOCK
If you look at Natuna, the government's attention is on the development of underdeveloped regions, the magnitude of the resources potential as well as the strategic location of geopolitical issues.
Based on data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) 2016, there are six working areas (WK) of oil and gas exploitation and 10 exploration blocks in Natuna, Six blocks entering the development stage, South Natuna Sea Block B (ConocoPhillips Indonesia), Shrimp Block (Pertamina), Kakap (Star Energy and Natuna Sea Block A (Premier Oil Natuna Sea BV) have been in production. Meanwhile, Northwest Natuna (Santos Australia) and Sembilang (PT Mandiri Panca Usaha) Not yet in production.

This working area has total proven reserves of 4 trillion cubic feet (tscf) and oil and condensate of 201.401 million ton barrels (MMstb). Total production, amounting to 490.31 MMscfd of gas and 25,113 bpd of oil and condensate.
Exploration blocks contained in Natuna, Tuna (Premier Oil Tuna BV), Duyung (West Natuna Exploration Ltd), Sokang (Black Platinum Investment Ltd) South Sokang (Lundin South Sokang BV), Octopus (Lundin Gurita BV), East Sokang PT Ekuator Energi Sokang), and North Sokang (North Sokang Energy Ltd).
