The Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities (SKK Migas) ensures one more oil and gas project has been operating onstream this year.
Head of SKK Migas Dwi Soetjipto said that the Bukit Tua Phase-3 Field development project managed by Petronas Carigali Ketapang II Ltd had been onstream at the beginning of the second quarter-2020.
Previously, there were four projects that had been streamed in the first quarter of 2020, namely the Grati Pressure Lowering project, the Randugunting Gas Field development project, the Buntal-5 Gas Field development project, and the construction of the Sembakung Power Plant. The projects provide an additional 80 mmscfd of gas production and generate 4 megawatts (MW) electricity.
Dwi said the project, with an investment of US $ 15.1 million, was completed on time despite being overshadowed by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Bukit Tua Phase-3 Field Project is projected to increase gas production by 31.5 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd) and oil by 3,182 barrels of oil per day (bopd).
"The development of Bukit Tua Phase-3 is a very important project, considering the additional oil and gas production is very large and very beneficial for consumers, especially in East Java," Dwi said.
This year, SKK Migas is targeting 11 onstream projects. For this reason, Dwi appreciates Petronas's steps in completing the Bukit Tua Phase-3 project.
