The Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities (SKK Migas) seeks to prevent 12 oil and gas projects scheduled to start production this year due to the widespread of the Corona Virus.

SKK Migas Head Dwi Soetjipto said that the Covid-19 pandemic, which was followed by a call for the community to remain at home, made the oil and gas operational schedule for the project shifted from the plan. From his observation, there is one oil and gas project which has the potential to be delayed from this year's operation to next year.
"But we are trying to minimize the shift. We will inform you more fully in mid-April, "he said.

SKK Migas Deputy for Operations Julius Wiratno added that the oil and gas project development has the potential to be disrupted due to a change in crew and logistics supply. Nevertheless, he will continue to conduct intensive coordination to mitigate and carry out recovery plans for the oil and gas project. In fact, several projects he said had been operating.
