Pertamina took over management of Blok East. Kalimantan-Attaka and Chevron. This year, oil production from this block is expected to be 13,291 barrels per day.
PT Pertamina (Persero) will try to maintain the oil and gas production of Blok East Kalimantan-Attaka in East Kalimantan following the block's management from Chevron. The block, which is located off the east coast of Kalimantan, has been managed by Chevron for 50 years.
This year, oil production from the block is expected to be 13,291 barrels per day, while gas production is 73.3 million standard cubic feet per day. Since it was exploited 50 years ago, the block which was contracted on October 24, 2018 has produced 1 billion barrels of crude oil and 3 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
the East Kalimantan Attaka Block
The government decided to manage the East Kalimantan Attaka Block to Pertamina. This block is part of eight blocks terminated in 2018, all of which are given to Pertamina. Seven other blocks include Ogan Komering, Sanga-sanga, Tuban, Tengah, Southeast Sumatra, and North Sumatra Offshore.
Managing Director of PT Pertamina Hulu Indonesia (PHI) Bambang Manumayoso said the challenge of managing old oil and gas blocks was to maintain production. With a production age of 50 years, the decline in production is natural and natural. It is trying to reduce the production in the East Kalimantan Block - Attaka is not too drastic.
"This year, we are planning a program of working over 10 wells and 59 well service," Bambang said in Balikpapan.
Investment
Next year, it plans to drill 3 wells, 37 re-working wells and 308 wells. With the program, the expected production is 10,639 barrels of oil per day and natural gas as much as 59.4 million standard cubic feet per day. The investment value issued by the IRC until 2020 was 79.3 million US dollars. East Kalimantan-Attaka Block Operation was carried out by PT Pertamina Hulu East Kalimantan which was a subsidiary of PHI.
The PHI was formed by Pertamina specifically to manage oil and gas blocks resulting from termination. Head of the Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities Amien Sunaryadi added, until 2026, there were 22 oil and gas blocks whose contracts expired.
This year, the decision on contracts that expire until 2023 will be decided on the continuation of the management of oil and gas block contracts resulting from termination using a gross split scheme (profit sharing based on gross production).
Meanwhile, President Director of PT Chevron Pacific Indonesia Albert Simanjuntak said, as many as 727 East Kalimantan-Attaka Block employees who previously worked under Chevron, automatically switched under Pertamina.
Indonesia faces oil and gas production deficits following high demand compared to domestic production. The oil and gas block from the termination submitted to Pertamina is expected to reduce the deficit. Production is ready to sell (lifting) oil in the first half of 2018 at 771,000 barrels per day (BOPD).
The natural gas lifting for the same period is 1.152 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOEPD). This achievement is lower than the 2018 State Budget target of 800,000 BOPD of oil and 1.2 million BOEPD of natural gas. Both oil and gas lifting are not expected to meet this year's target.

Produksi Blok Tua Dijaga
Pertamina mengambil alih pengelolaan Blok East . Kalimantan-Attaka dart Chevron. Tahun ini, produksi minyak dari blok ini diharapkan 13.291 barel per hari.
PT Pertamina (Persero) akan berusaha mempertahankan produksi minyak dan gas bumi Blok East Kalimantan-Attaka di Kalimantan Timur menyusul alih kelola blok itu dari Chevron. Blok yang terletak di lepas pantai timur Kalimantan itu sudah dikelola Chevron selama 50 tahun.
Tahun ini, produksi minyak dari blok itu diharapkan 13.291 barel per hari, sementara produksi gas 73,3 juta standar kaki kubik per hari. Sejak dieksploitasi 50 tahun lalu, blok yang habis kontrak pada 24 Oktober 2018 tersebut sudah menghasilkan 1 miliar barel minyak mentah dan 3 triliun kaki kubik gas bumi.
Pemerintah memutuskan pengelolaan Blok East Kalimantan Attaka ke Pertamina. Blok ini bagian dari delapan blok hasil terminasi tahun 2018 yang seluruh pengelolaannya diberikan kepada Pertamina Tujuh blok lainnya di antaranya Ogan Komering, Sanga-sanga, Tuban, Tengah, Southeast Sumatera, dan North Sumatera Offshore.
Direktur Utama PT Pertamina Hulu Indonesia (PHI) Bambang Manumayoso mengatakan, tantangan pengelolaan blok-blok migas tua adalah mempertahankan produksi. Dengan usia produksi 50 tahun, penurunan produksi adalah wajar dan alamiah. Pihaknya berusaha agar penurunan produksi di Blok East Kalimantan-Attaka tidak terlalu drastis.
”Tahun ini, kami merencanakan program kerja ulang sumur (work over) sebanyak 10 sumur dan 59 perawatan sumur (well service),” kata Bambang di Balikpapan.
lnvestasi
Tahun depan, pihaknya merencanakan pengeboran 3 sumur, 37 sumur kerja ulang, dan 308 perawatan sumur. Dengan program itu, produksi yang diharapkan adalah 10.639 barel minyak per hari dan gas bumi sebanyak 59,4 juta standar kaki kubik per hari. Nilai lnvestasi yang dikeluarkan PHI sampai tahun 2020 adalah 79,3 juta dollar AS. Operasi Blok East Kalimantan-Attaka dilakukan PT Pertamina Hulu Kalimantan Timur yang merupakan anak usaha dari PHI.
PHI dibentuk Pertamina khusus untuk mengelola blok-blok migas hasil terminasi. Kepala Satuan Kerja Khusus Pelaksana Kegiatan Usaha Hulu Minyak dan Gas Bumi Amien Sunaryadi menambahkan, sampai tahun 2026, ada 22 blok migas yang kontrak berakhir.
Tahun ini, keputusan terhadap kontrak yang berakhir sampai dengan tahun 2023 empat blok akan diputuskan kelanjutan pengelolaannya Kontrak blok migas hasil terminasi menggunakan skema gross split (bagi hasil berdasarkan produksi bruto).
Sementara itu, Presiden Direktur PT Chevron Pasific Indonesia Albert Simanjuntak mengatakan, sebanyak 727 karyawan Blok East Kalimantan-Attaka yang sebelumnya bekerja di bawah Chevron, secara otomatis beralih di bawah Pertamina.
Indonesia menghadapi defisit produksi migas menyusul tingginya kebutuhan dibandingkan produksi dalam negeri. Blok migas hasil terminasi yang diserahkan kepada Pertamina diharapkan mengurangi defisit itu. Produksi siap jual (lifting) minyak semester I-2018 sebesar 771.000 barel per hari (BOPD).
Adapun lifting gas bumi periode yang sama 1,152 juta barel setara minyak per hari (BOEPD). Pencapaian itu lebih rendah daripada target APBN 2018 yang 800.000 BOPD minyak dan 1,2 juta BOEPD gas bumi. Baik lifting minyak maupun gas bumi diperkirakan tidak memenuhi target tahun ini.
