The existing power plant in the Rokan Block is certain to continue operating for the next 3 years, even though there is a transfer of operator management in the working area.
Deputy Head of the Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities (SKK Migas) Fatar Yani said electricity was one of the nine important elements in the process of transferring management of the Rokan Block from PT Chevron Pacific Indonesia to PT Pertamina Hulu Rokan (PHR).
"Of course it will continue even though there are other parties who enter. What is clear, 3 years is still going on to continue to sustain, "he said.
The electricity and steam supply in the Rokan Block is currently produced by a steam gas power plant (PLTGU) operated by PT Mandau Cipta Tenaga Nusantara (MCTN) which is directly owned by Chevron Standart Ltd.
Fatar said MCTN will carry out a business-to-business mechanism with new investors. He hopes that the process will not interfere with the transfer of management in the Rokan Block.

Director of Commerce and Customer Management of PT PLN (Persero) Bob Sariel said that his party had signed an MoU for the supply of electricity and steam with Pertamina Hulu Rokan which will take effect in August 2021.
Bob explained that in supplying electricity and steam for the Rokan Block, PLN divides it into two stages, namely the transition period and the permanent period. The transition period will last for 3 years starting from August 2021 to August 2024.
"During this transitional period, PLN will manage the existing power plants that currently have powered the Rokan work area," he explained.
