Pertamina EP Adera Field Adds Production 751 BOPD

PT Pertamina EP, a cooperation contract contractor under the supervision of SKK Migas and a subsidiary of Pertamina Persero, has succeeded in increasing oil production by 751 barrels per day / BOPD from the BNG-A1 well at Adera Field. The amount of production is 500% of the initial target of 150 BOPD. The equivalent of oil and gas production from the BNG-A1 well reached 819 BOEPD or 145% of the target of 565 BOEPD, even though gas production reached 0.4 million standard cubic feet per day / MMSCFD.

General Manager of Pertamina EP (PEP) Asset 2 Astri Pujianto said the drilling program needed adjustments given the very strict health protocol for preventing the transmission of Covid-19. This requires regular health screenings to be carried out and of course limiting some activity.

"However, Alhamdulillah, the activities can be carried out, even faster than the specified target time," said Astri.

This drilling program using Rig PDSI D1500-E / 53 1500HP which was initially implemented with a target of 52 calendar days can be completed in 48 calendar days. This results in significant cost and time efficiencies.

Doctor Nirwan Abidin, Medical Supervisor of PEP Asset 2, said that adjustments to health protocols occurred with crew change and personnel operations while in the field. There are differences when carrying out drilling operations in normal times and during a pandemic, such as medical test screening when engineers and operators enter the location.

All personnel is obliged to carry out quarantine for four days and then carry out a PCR test, once the results are negative and they are declared fit to go to the location, after that the personnel is allowed to enter the work location.

"Conversely, if the results are positive and not fit, the person concerned are not allowed to enter the location or work," said Dr. Nirwan.

Nirwan added that although drilling activities were carried out with adjustments to health protocols during the COVID-19 pandemic, drilling activities could be carried out safely, smoothly, and safely. The Well drilling activity was successfully carried out after the completion of drilling in the K1 layer of the Talang Akar Formation (TAF) West Block Benuang Structure which has never been produced in the surrounding wells. As for the drilling in the West Block, the last Benuang Structure was carried out in 1986, so this success would certainly be a new potential and open up opportunities for increased production in the Adera Field.

PEP Asset 2 Exploitation Senior Manager Adang Sukmatiawan said that the success of drilling in BNG-A1 in early 2021 has encouraged the EPT Asset 2 Team to look for new oil reservoirs or reserves that have never been produced and to evaluate the potential for subsurface inter-field.

"We are also working with the Drilling and Workover team to mitigate the potential risks of drilling hazards that may be encountered," said Adang.

    Adera Field currently produces oil of 1,933 bopd and gas of 9.9 mmscfd. Based on SKK Migas' Integrated Operating System (SOT) data at the end of January 2021 year-to-date, PEP Asset 2 crude oil production stood at 17,730 bopd, while natural gas production was around 335 mmscfd. Asset 2's oil and gas production comes from the Prabumulih, Limau, Adera and Pendopo fields.

Pertamina Focuses on Increasing Production

 

PT Pertamina (Persero) through its subsidiary continues to work on completing the work plan that has been launched, in order to increase the company's contribution to the achievement of national oil production.

In 2019, Pertamina's upstream contribution is around 41% of total national production, while this year it is targeted to increase to 49%. Furthermore, in 2021 Pertamina's contribution is expected to reach 60%, especially with the company's entry into the Rokan Block.

the Rokan Block

President Director of PT Pertamina EP Eko Agus Sardjono said that in facing the remainder of the 2020 period, the Pertamina subsidiary will focus on optimizing domestic gas absorption which is expected to be able to boost gas and condensate production.

"Apart from that, Pertamina EP also focuses on completing work plans for drilling exploration wells, seismic surveys, drilling development wells, workover, and well service so that the performance achievement at the end of the year can be achieved optimally," he said.

As of August 2020, Pertamina EP has realized 58 wells and 5 wells are underway, while the revised 2020 Corporate Budget Work Plan (RKAP) target is 79 wells. Meanwhile, 107 rework activities have been completed and 7 are in progress from the revised RKAP 2020 target of 192 activities. Realization of well maintenance and well intervention 2,103 activities have been completed from the revised 2020 RKAP target of 2,547 activities.

In addition, in August 2020 Pertamina EP has increased production through 4 development wells located in the work area of ​​Pertamina EP Asset 1, Asset 2, Asset 3, and Asset 5. With the additional production in August, overall Pertamina EP development drilling activities The 2020 Work Plan has succeeded in contributing 7,809 barrels of oil per day (bopd) and 5.6 MMscfd of gas to Pertamina EP's overall oil and gas production.

In accordance with the 2020 revised RKAP, until July 2020 Pertamina EP oil production reached 80.3 MBOPD or 99.6% of the target, and gas production was 866 MMscfd or 95% of the target. 

    Chief Executive Officer of PT Pertamina Hulu Energi (Subholdingupstream) Budiman Parhusip previously explained that the realization of Pertamina EP, which was still below the target, was caused by obstacles that arose during the Covid-19 pandemic and also low world oil prices. On the other hand, Pertamina will also disburse the US $ 80 million for drilling wells in the Rokan Block during the transition period which will start in August 2021.

President Director of Pertamina Hulu Rokan, RP Yudantoro, explained that during the transition period, the company will begin drilling as many as 44 wells in the Rokan Block. He said Pertamina Hulu Rokan (PHR) together with the Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities (SKK Migas) had determined the coordinates of the entire well being drilled.

Blogger Agus Purnomo in SKK Migas

Currently, his party is preparing a rig for the drilling process. Pertamina Hulu Rokan needs 5 units - 6 units of rigs for drilling in 2021. Later, the rig units will be provided by PT Pertamina Drilling Service Indonesia (PDSI).

"We drilled the US $ 1.5 million for each well — only US $ 2 million," he said.

PT Chevron Pacific Indonesia (CPI)

Next year, it is targeted that as many as 184 wells will be drilled to smooth the transition of the management of the Rokan Block from PT Chevron Pacific Indonesia (CPI) to Pertamina. Yudantoro added that his party continues to strive to accelerate the transfer of exploration and exploitation data from the main fields so that they can immediately prepare for the drilling of 44 wells in the Rokan Block. Pertamina targets to carry out the drilling immediately after the transition from Chevron to PHR on August 9, 2021.

"PHR will ensure that drilling preparations from August to December 2021 can run smoothly, therefore intensive communication will be carried out with CPI so that the data transfer process, information procedures [SOP], and land preparation can run quickly, without significant obstacles," he explained.

In addition, Yudantoro continued, currently, the process is still being carried out, among others, the construction process of replacing a 364 km long trunk line that carries crude oil from the Rokan field to a storage tank in Dumai, which can then be used as a supply for product processing at the Pertamina Dumai Refinery.

ROKAN BLOCK TRANSITIONS

PHR, he said, is also preparing for the transition of Chevron workers who will later be empowered at PHR and at Pertamina in accordance with applicable regulations, such as workers in other management transfer blocks that Pertamina has previously handled.

"With the support of all stakeholders, we all hope that the transition in the Rokan Block can go well so that it can maintain oil and gas production to encourage national energy security and independence," he added.

The performance of a number of Pertamina's subsidiaries that were operators in several oil and gas blocks previously received the spotlight because they did not reach the set target. Based on SKK Migas data, as of June 2020, there were four Pertamina subsidiaries that did not reach the ready-made or lifting oil production target. In fact, so far, it is included in the top 15 cooperation contract companies (KKKS) as contributors to the national oil and gas lifting.

SKK Migas also asked Pertamina EP to optimize this year's work plan so that the production target is ready to sell or lifting can be achieved. Acting Head of Program and Communication Division of SKK Migas Susana Kurniasih said that the optimization of Pertamina EP's work plan must be realized because the contribution of this optimization will greatly affect the achievement of the lifting target.

"We hope that Pertamina EP can realize all the programs planned in the remaining 2020," he said.

Trisakti University teaching staff, Pri Agung Rakhmanto, assessed that Pertamina EP's performance results have an important influence and role in the national lifting performance. This is because Pertamina EP's overall production is around 82,000 bpd. He considered that the weakening of oil prices and the Covid-19 pandemic affected the capability investment of a number of oil and gas companies and must implement efficiency so that currently optimization is very necessary.

"It is quite important, Pertamina EP's overall production is around 10% -12% of the total national lifting," he explained.

Through Pertamina EP Asset 2 Prabumulih Field in Sumatra has succeeded in drilling the LBK-INF-2 or LBK-15 well in the Lembak Structure, which is drilled on 24 June 2020 and conducted a Well Intervention on the PMB-33 well.

Pertamina EP Asset 3

The drilling of the LBK-15 well reached a depth at the end of 1630 mMD with a production test result of 1186 barrels of oil per day (BOPD, having successfully exceeded the target of 400% from the initial plan of 250 BOPD.

This well has been successfully produced in the Talang Akar Formation (TAF) -E layer, which is a virgin layer, in addition to exceeding the target production, it will also increase Asset 2 oil and gas reserves and open new opportunities for TAF layer development wells in the soft structure. 

    Astri Pujianto, General Manager of Asset 2, said that the success of the LBK-15 drilling was the result of good cooperation between functions implementing operational excellence.

"Thank God, even though the pandemic is not over yet, the spirit of transformation and cooperation among Asset 2 workers is maintained. By implementing operation excellence, drilling will be completed with zero fatality, ”said Astri.

In addition to the success of the LBK-15 drilling, the Well Intervention program applied to the PMB-33 well located in Sukaraja Village, Prambumulih City also succeeded in providing additional reserves of 314.79 BOPD from the initial target of 50 BOPD.

Meanwhile, Ndirga Andri Sisworo, Prabumulih Field Manager, explained that with the addition of the two wells, Prabumulih Field's current production is around 8,200 BOPD or 102% of the target. The success of drilling the LBK-15 well provided an additional 1186 bopd and the PMB-33 well intervention added 314.79 BOPD. Prabumulih Field's current production is in the range of 9514 BOPD.

Furthermore, in the work areas of Pertamina EP Asset 3 Jatibarang Field and Subang Field, West Java, they succeeded in trying to increase production through the Well Intervention program at ABG-02 and BBS-04 wells. Sumur ABG-02 which is the working area of ​​Pertamina EP Aset 3 Jatibarang Field in Jatimunggul Village, Trisi District, Indramayu Regency, provides an additional oil production of 346 BOPD.

In addition, Jatibarang Field also drilled CMT-20 wells in Muntur Village, Losarang District, Indramayu Regency in early 2020 which succeeded in achieving 582 BOPD production.

Hari Widodo, FM Jatibarang Field, said that at a time of high production declination, Jatibarang Field tried hard to maintain and increase production, one of which was through a Well Intervention and drilling program. This was evident from the Well intervention carried out in the ABG-02 well which succeeded in achieving the oil production of 346 BOPD.

"Meanwhile, for drilling in CMT-20, the production reached 582 BOPD for oil and 2 MMSCFD for gas. With the above successes, in the future we will conduct more massive well intervention and drilling, "he said.

Meanwhile, the Well intervention program carried out at BBS-04 well, which is the Pertamina EP Asset 3 Subang Field working area in Tegalsawah Village, Karawang Timur District, Karawang Regency, West Java, also succeeded in adding production of 700 BOPD and gas of 1 MMSCFD.

The Largest City Gas Connection Supply Pertamina EP saves Rp 35 Billion

PT Pertamina EP Asset 2 supplies the largest city gas connection in Indonesia in the Prabumulih The Real Full City Gas program. Until now, the company supplies gas to 42,650 households (KK) or 93 percent of the total households in the City of Prabumulih, South Sumatra (South Sumatra) and saves the state budget of Rp 35 billion per year.

"Since 2013 PT Pertamina EP Asset 2 Prabumulih Field has been supplying natural gas to the community for the use of households and small industries / Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs)," said Prabumulih Field Manager of PT Pertamina EP Asset 2, Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

Ndirga explained, inaugurated on July 20, 2013, the Prabumulih city gas program first connected as many as 4,650 households spread across six villages  and in two districts of West and North Prabumulih. He said the use of flared gas into city gas is one of the solutions designed by Pertamina EP in line with the Prabumulih City Government program.

"This program is a company's effort to help reduce combustion emissions," said Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

He explained that the purpose of the Prabumulih The Real Full City Gas program is not only to reduce CO2 emissions, but to help fulfill city gas as an energy source in households and MSMEs, save energy, reduce government subsidy costs and increase Prabumulih City Government revenue.

"Compared to the use of ordinary gas cylinders, this city gas network can save the state budget Rp 35 billion per year," said Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

He said, so far the city gas network connection in the City of Prabumulih has been found in 23 villages / kelurahan with a total of 42,650 households or 93 percent of the total households in the City of Prabumulih. The construction of the Household Connection installation (SR) originates from the Prabumulih City Regional Budget and Pertamina's investment development. The state budget used for the construction of the Prabumulih gas network is managed through the affiliation of Petro Prabu.

"City gas supplied by Pertamina EP Prabumulih Field is managed directly by Petro Prabu as an affiliate of the Prabumulih City Government," said Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

The community gas users are charged by Petro Prabu including the cost of pipeline maintenance services. However, the costs imposed by the City Government of Prabumulih are far more economical than the cost of using LPG gas in a cylinder.

"With the Prabumulih The Real Full City Gas program, the company hopes to make a real contribution in improving the environment, as well as helping increase the growth and development of the City of Prabumulih. The benefit of this program is also expected to create synergy with the community and government, "said Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

Suplai Sambungan Gas Kota Terbesar Pertamina EP Hemat Rp 35 Miliar

PT Pertamina EP Asset 2 memasok sambungan gas kota terbesar di Indonesia dalam program Prabumulih The Real Full City Gas. Hingga kini, perseroan menyuplai gas kepada 42.650 kepala keluarga (KK) atau 93 persen dari total seluruh KK di Kota Prabumulih, Sumatera Selatan (Sumsel) dan menghemat anggaran negara Rp 35 miliar per tahun.

“Sejak 2013 PT Pertamina EP Asset 2 Prabumulih Field telah mensuplai gas alam ke masyarakat untuk kepentingan penggunaan rumah tangga dan industri kecil/Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM),” kata Prabumulih Field Manager PT Pertamina EP Asset 2, Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

Ndirga menjelaskan, diresmikan pada 20 Juli 2013, program gas kota Prabumulih pertama kali menyambungkan sebanyak 4.650 KK yang tersebar di enam desa/kelurahan dan di dua kecamatan Prabumulih Barat dan Utara. Dia mengatakan, pemanfaatan flared gas menjadi gas kota merupakan salah satu solusi yang dirancang Pertamina EP selaras dengan program Pemerintah Kota Prabumulih. 

“Program ini merupakan upaya perusahaan dalam membantu mengurangi gas emisi hasil pembakaran,” kata Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

Dia menjelaskan tujuan program Prabumulih The Real Full City Gas tidak hanya menurunkan emisi CO2, tetapi membantu pemenuhan gas kota sebagai sumber energi di rumah tangga dan UMKM, penghematan energi, penurunan biaya subsidi pemerintah dan peningkatan pendapatan Pemerintah Kota Prabumulih. 

“Dibandingkan dengan penggunaan tabung gas biasa, jaringan gas kota ini bisa menghemat anggaran negara Rp 35 miliar per tahun,” kata Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

Dia mengatakan, sampai saat ini sambungan jaringan gas kota di Kota Prabumulih sudah terdapat di 23 desa/kelurahan dengan jumlah sambungan sebanyak 42.650 KK atau sebesar 93 persen dari total seluruh KK di Kota Prabumulih. Pembangunan instalasi Sambungan Rumah Tangga (SR) berasal dari APBD Kota Prabumulih dan pengembangan investasi Pertamina. APBN yang digunakan untuk pembangunan jaringan gas Prabumulih dikelola melalui afiliasi Petro Prabu.

“Gas kota yang disalurkan oleh Pertamina EP Prabumulih Field dikelola langsung oleh Petro Prabu sebagai afiliasi dari Pemerintah Kota Prabumulih,” kata Ndirga Andri Sisworo. 

Masyarakat pengguna gas kota dikenakan biaya oleh Petro Prabu termasuk biaya jasa maintenance/pemeliharaan pipa. Namun biaya yang dikenakan oleh Pemerintah Kota Prabumulih jauh lebih ekonomis dari pada biaya penggunaan gas LPG dalam tabung.

“Dengan adanya program Prabumulih The Real Full City Gas ini, perusahaan berharap dapat memberikan sumbangsih nyata dalam perbaikan lingkungan, serta membantu peningkatan pertumbuhan dan pembangunan Kota Prabumulih. Kebermanfaatan Program ini juga diharapkan menciptakan sinergi dengan masyarakat dan pemerintah,” kata Ndirga Andri Sisworo.

Gas Supply Still Safe

PT Pertamina EP Asset 2 ensures that gas supplies for Palembang and Java remain secure even though there will be an increase in the number of gas network connections (jargas) in Prabumulih, South Sumatra. At present there are 42,650 jargas connections to Prabumulih with a total gas supply of 1 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscfd). The connection is targeted to increase to 50,000 by 2020.

Prabumulih Field's Northern Area Gas Production Senior Supervisor Siswanto said that if there had been 50,000 jargas connections, gas demand would increase to approximately 1.2 MMscfd. Aside from the small additional demand, gas supply to Prabumulih is also abundant so it is still safe to meet the needs of other constituents.

According to him, the distribution of gas to Palembang, South Sumatra and Java is managed through the Gas Compressor Station (SKG) X Prabumulih Barat (PMB). The supply of gas managed by SKG X PMB is currently supplied from two fields, namely Pendopo and Prabumulih. 

     The two fields supply 270 MMscfd of gas. Palembang received 160 MMscfd and 110 MMscfd was distributed to Java. Jargas in Palembang is not only used by local residents, but also for the needs of fertilizer companies, PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk. (PGN), to Electricity.

As for the gas that is supplied to Java, the management is handed over to PGN. Later, SKG X PMB will also get an additional supply of gas from the Lembak Gas Collection Station (SPG) to Palembang for approximately 50 MMscfd.

In addition, gas supply to PGN in Java is also supplied from Pagar Dewa metering, namely from the Paku Gajah Field, Kuang, Merbau, and SP1 Pagar Dewa for approximately 65 MMscfd.

"So our gas supply is still safe both to Palembang and to Java," he said.

In addition, Pertamina EP Asset 2 will also start operating a new well, namely Talang Jimar (TLI) 258. The well is targeted to produce 175-500 barrels of oil per day (bpd) with associated gas of 0.5 MMScfd.

Pasokan Gas Masih Aman 

PT Pertamina EP Asset 2 memastikan pasokan gas untuk wilayah Palembang dan Jawa tetap aman meskipun akan ada peningkatan jumlah sambungan jaringan gas (jargas) di Prabumulih, Sumatra Selatan. Saat ini terdapat 42.650 sambungan jargas ke Prabumulih dengan pasokan gas total sebanyak 1 juta standar kaki kubik per hari (MMscfd) Sambungan tersebut ditargetkan bertambah jadi 50.000 pada 2020. 

Northern Area Gas Production Senior Supervisor Prabumulih Field Siswanto mengatakan apabila telah mencapai 50.000 sambungan jargas, kebutuhan gas akan meningkat menjadi kurang lebih 1,2 MMscfd. Selain karena penambahan kebutuhan yang kecil, pasokan gas ke Prabumulih juga masih melimpah sehingga masih aman untuk memenuhi kebutuhan konstunen lainnya.

Menurutnya, penyaluran gas ke Palembang, Sumatera Selatan maupun Jawa dikelola melalui Stasiun Kompresor Gas (SKG) X Prabumulih Barat (PMB). Pasokan gas gas yang dikelola SKG X PMB saat ini dipasok dari dua lapangan, yakni Pendopo dan Prabumulih. Kedua lapangan tersebut memasok gas sebanyak 270 MMscfd. 

     Palembang mendapatkan jatah 160 MMscfd dan sisanya sebanyak 110 MMscfd dialirkan ke Jawa. Jargas di Palembang tidak hanya digunakan oleh warga setempat, melainkan juga untuk kebutuhan perusahaan pupuk, PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk. (PGN), hingga Kelistrikan. 

Adapun gas yang dipasok ke Jawa diserahkan pengelolaannya ke PGN. Nantinya, SKG X PMB juga mendapat tambahan suplai gas dari Stasiun Pengumpul Gas (SPG) Lembak ke Palembang sebanyak kurang lebih 50 MMscfd.
