PT Pertamina made a step forward in the process of finding oil and gas resources in Indonesia. In fact, they independently built offshore production facilities that use the work of Indonesian children.

Director of PT Pertamina (Persero) Dwi Soetjipto inaugurated the installation of the offshore platform Pertamina Hulu Energi or PHE-24 in the work area of PT PHE West Madura Offshore (PHE WMO) located in the Offshore Madura Waters, East Java (East Java).
The bridge used is pure our own work. Starting from the design to the work process is done without the involvement of foreign parties, "said Dwi.
Independence in the search for energy sources is very important for national energy sustainability in the coming years. Moreover, there are high efforts to create and install it yourself.
At PHE-24, the composition of the domestic content level (TKDN) was 61.8%, one of which was appointed by PT Timas and Guna Nusa for the work process. The use of local materials in the development of energy infrastructure is very important to do. The reason is, the move demands efficiency from the government plus a falling world oil price.
"So this is very profitable and costs can be cut," he said.
In addition, the ongoing search for new wells creates hope in managing national energy independence. The integration area in the WMO block provides fresh air for oil and gas reserves in Indonesia. The construction of the offshore platform itself is part of Pertamina's effort to increase the contribution of up to 40% of national oil production in 2019.
At present Pertamina has just contributed around 23% of the total national oil production of 830,000 barrels per day. The PHE-24 installation containing natural gas will be integrated with the PHE-12 offshore platform containing petroleum. The two production facilities will be moored around 55-70 meters above sea level.
This integrated field oil and gas production facility will also be equipped with a "Central Processing Platform 2" (CPP2) or offshore platform to process the separation of gas and oil.
"Later, it will be able to produce 3,000 Barrels of Oil Per Day (BOPD) at PHE-12 and 15 MMSCFD at PHE-24. Head of SKK Migas Amien Sunaryadi said the steps to use the platform for their own products in Indonesia are new. a lot of dependence on foreign parties in managing and creating production facilities.
"Costs can be reduced properly. So there are savings that make steps to look for new wells continued last August it had issued a circular about the supply of goods and services for offshore development made in the country. It turns out that the response given is very good for maximizing domestic potential and capability, this shows we can and are independent in looking at national energy supply.
