Next year, Pertamina EP will pursue production of 85,000 BPD

PT Pertamina EP targets 2020 oil production to reach 85,000 barrels per day (BPD). President Director of Pertamina EP Nanang Abdul Manaf said the 2020 oil production target was not much different from the 2019 target.

"Pertamina EP's oil production target is 85,000 BPD. Gas is relatively stable or the same as this year," he told KONTAN while attending the 2019 Pertamina Energy Forum.

The Pertamina EP gas production target this year is 965 million cubic feet per day (MMSCFD). To pursue the production target, Pertamina EP will drill 108 development wells and 10 exploration wells starting next year. 

    Nanang said that currently 85 development wells have been drilled and 12 wells are still in the drilling process until the end of 2019. The determination of the production target is influenced by several considerations. One of them is the decline in production in a number of oil and gas fields.

Tahun Depan, Pertamina EP Kejar Produksi 85.000 Bph

PT Pertamina EP menargetkan produksi minyak tahun 2020 sebesar 85.000 barel per hari (bph). Presiden Direktur Pertamina EP Nanang Abdul Manaf mengatakan, target produksi minyak tahun 2020 tidak jauh berbeda dengan target tahun 2019.

"Target produksi minyak Pertamina EP sebesar 85.000 bph. Untuk gas relatif stabil atau sama seperti tahun ini,” ungkap dia kepada KONTAN saat menghadiri acara Pertamina Energy Forum 2019.

     Adapun target produksi gas Pertamina EP tahun ini sebesar 965 juta kaki kubik per hari (mmscfd). Untuk mengejar target produksi tersebut, Pertamina EP akan mengebor 108 sumur pengembangan dan 10 sumur eksplorasi mulai tahun depan. 

  Nanang menyatakan, saat ini telah dilakukan pengeboran sumur pengembangan sebanyak 85 sumur dan 12 sumur masih dalam proses pengeboran hingga akhir tahun 2019. Penetapan target produksi tersebut dipengaruhi beberapa pertimbangan. Salah satunya adalah penurunan produksi pada sejumlah lapangan minyak dan gas.

Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Encourages Pertamina to Accelerate Refinery Project

Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif encouraged Pertamina to accelerate the completion of six refinery projects that are being worked on. The six refineries each have four upgrading and upgrading capacity projects and two new refinery projects.

"The refinery project is expected to increase oil processing capacity from 1 million barrels per day (BPD) to 2 million BPD," Arifin said when opening the 2019 Pertamina Energy Forum.

The upgrading project is carried out by Pertamina for four existing refineries, namely refineries in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Balongan, West Java, Dumai Riau, and Cilacap, Central Java. While the new refinery projects, namely Tuban Refinery in East Java and Bontang Refinery in East Kalimantan. The entire refinery project is rolling. In working on refineries, Pertamina also cooperates with partners.

Pertamina is working on the Tuban refinery with Rosneft Oil Company and Bontang Refinery with Overseas Oil and Gas LLC (OOG). In addition, Pertamina is also working with Saudi Aramco to work on the Cilacap Refinery Project. According to Nicke Widyawati, Pertamina and Saudi Aramco are continuing negotiations on the work on the Cilacap Refinery Project, mainly about valuation.

Overseas Oil and Gas LLC (OOG)

Pertamina prepared two options following the negotiations that were not immediately completed. First, Pertamina and Saudi Aramco will continue to work on the Cilacap Refinery if there is an agreement at the end of this year.

Nicke Widyawati

"If an agreement does not occur, there is a scheme similar to that in the Balikpapan Refinery. Existing refineries are not spun off, so build the refinery yourself. So hopefully there will be an agreement, "She said.

The Cilacap refinery is targeted to start operating in 2025. After upgrading, the crude oil processing capacity of the Cilacap Refinery will increase from 348 thousand barrels per day (BPH) to 400 thousand BPD. 

   Furthermore, there will be additional production of gasoline (gasoline) 80 thousand BPD, diesel 60 thousand BPD, and aviation fuel of 40 thousand BPD. Fuel production increased significantly because the ability of refineries to process crude oil into finished products (NCI) rose from 74% to 92-98%.

At present, Pertamina is ready to execute the land acquisition for the Cilacap Refinery Project. In addition, the company is also conducting auctions to look for contractors who work on Early Work or site development. The signing of this early work contract is targeted to be carried out in December 2019.

Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan

Previously, Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said the government would evaluate the Cilacap Refinery Project given there were still differences in the results of valuation conducted by each oil and gas company around the US $ 1.5 billion.

"If it remains that much [the difference in asset valuations], we see other options, there are already other choices," he said.

Balikpapan Refinery

Meanwhile, Pertamina also opened new options for cooperation with Saudi Aramco, an oil and gas company originating from Saudi Arabia, in addition to the Cilacap Refinery Project. Pertamina offers Saudi Aramco the same scheme as the Balikpapan Refinery if there is no detailed agreement on the Cilacap Refinery.

Nicke Widyawati

     Pertamina Managing Director Nicke Widyawati said Pertamina and Saudi Aramco were still in the middle of negotiating cooperation in the Cilacap Refinery Project, mainly about valuation. However, Pertamina is also preparing two options following the completion of these negotiations.

      First, Pertamina and Saudi Aramco will continue to work on the Cilacap Refinery if there is an agreement at the end of 2019. Second, Pertamina also offers the same scheme as the Balikpapan Refinery Project for the Cilacap Refinery.

"If an agreement does not occur, there is a scheme similar to that in the Balikpapan Refinery. Existing refineries are not spun off, so build the refinery yourself. So hopefully there will be an agreement, "he said.

Pertamina has cooperated with Saudi Aramco to work on this project since 2014. In 2016, both of them even signed an agreement to form a joint venture (Joint Venture Development Agreement / JVDA). However, until now, the two have not yet formed a joint venture, this is because there has not been any agreement on the valuation of assets.

      Regarding asset valuation, this is needed to fulfill one of the demands of the Saudi Arabian oil and gas company, namely the asset spin-off to be subsequently included in a joint venture.

However, the problem of asset valuation differences in the Cilacap Refinery has dragged on. The Cilacap refinery is targeted to start operating in 2025. After upgrading, the crude oil processing capacity of the Cilacap Refinery will increase from 348 thousand barrels per day (BPD) to 400 thousand BPD.

     Furthermore, there will be additional production of gasoline (gasoline) 80 thousand BPD, diesel 60 thousand BPD, and aviation fuel of 40 thousand BPD. Fuel production increased significantly because the ability of refineries to process crude oil into finished products (NCI) rose from 74% to 92-98%.

Menteri ESDM Dorong Pertamina Percepat Proyek Kilang

Menteri Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif mendorong Pertamina untuk mempercepat penyelesaian enam proyek kilang yang tengah digarap. Keenam kilang tersebut masing-masing empat proyek perbaikan dan peningkatan kapasitas kilang (upgrading) dan dua proyek kilang baru.

“Proyek kilang ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kapasitas pengolahan minyak dari 1 juta barel per hari (bph) menjadi 2 juta bph,” kata Arifin ketika membuka Pertamina Energy Forum 2019.

Proyek upgrading dikerjakan Pertamina untuk empat kilang eksisting, yakni kilang di Balikpapan, Kalimantan Timur, Balongan Jawa Barat, Dumai Riau, serta Cilacap Jawa Tengah. Sementara proyek kilang baru, yakni Kilang Tuban di Jawa Timurdan Kilang Bontang di Kalimantan Timur. Seluruh proyek kilang ini sudah bergulir. Dalam menggarap kilang, Pertamina juga menggandeng mitra. 

Pertamina menggarap Kilang Tuban bersama Rosneft Oil Company dan Kilang Bontang dengan Overseas Oil and Gas LLC (OOG). Selain itu, Pertamina juga bekerja sama dengan Saudi Aramco untuk menggarap Proyek Kilang Cilacap. Menurut Nicke, Pertamina dan Saudi Aramco masih melanjutkan negosiasi kerja sama pengerjaan Proyek Kilang Cilacap, utamanya soal valuasi. 

Pertamina menyiapkan dua opsi menyusul tidak segera rampungnya negosiasi ini. Pertama, Pertamina dan Saudi Aramco akan melanjutkan pengerjaan Kilang Cilacap jika di akhir tahun ini ada kesepakatan.

“Kalau tidak terjadi kesepakatan, ada skema yang sama dengan di Kilang Balikpapan. Existing kilang tidak di-spin off, jadi bangun kilang sendiri saja. Jadi semoga kesepakatan akan ada,” kata Nicke.

Kilang Cilacap ditargetkan mulai beroperasi pada 2025. Pasca upgrading, kapasitas pengolahan minyak mentah Kilang Cilacap akan naik dari 348 ribu barel per hari Gaph) menjadi 400 ribu bph. Selanjutnya, bakal ada tambahan produksi bensin (gasoline) 80 ribu bph, solar 60 ribu bph, dan avtur 40 ribu bph. Produksi bahan bakar naik signifikan lantaran kemampuan kilang mengolah minyak mentah menjadi produk jadi (NCI) naik dari 74% menjadi 92-98%.

Saat ini, Pertamina siap mengeksekusi pengadaan lahan untuk Proyek Kilang Cilacap. Selain itu, perseroan juga sedang melaksanakan lelang untuk mencari kontraktor yang menggarap Early Work atau penyiapan lokasi (site development). Penandatanganan kontrak pekerjaan early work ini ditargetkan dilakukan pada Desember 2019.

Sebelumnya, Menteri Koordinator Bidang Kemaritiman dan Investasi Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan mengatakan, pemerintah akan mengevaluasi Proyek Kilang Cilacap mengingat masih ada perbedaan hasil valuasi yang dilakukan oleh masing-masing perusahaan migas sekitar US$ 1,5 miliar. 

“Kalau masih tetap segitu [selisih valuasi aset], kami melihat pilihan lain, sudah ada pilihan lain,” kata dia.

Kilang Balikpapan

Sementara itu, Pertamina juga membuka opsi baru kerja sama dengan Saudi Aramco, perusahaan migas yang berasal dari Arab Saudi, selain Proyek Kilang Cilacap. Pertamina menawarkan Saudi Aramco skema yang sama dengan Kilang Balikpapan jika tidak ada kesepakatan terkail Kilang Cilacap. 

     Direktur Utama Pertamina Nicke Widyawati menuturkan, Pertamina dan Saudi Aramco masih melanjulkan negosiasi kerja sama pengerjaan Proyek Kilang Cilacap, utamanya soal valuasi. Namun, Pertamina juga menyiapkan dua opsi menyusul tidak kunjung rampungnya negosiasi ini.

Pertama, Pertamina dan Saudi Aramco akan melanjutkan pengerjaan Kilang Cilacap jika di akhir 2019 ada kesepakatan. Kedua, Pertamina juga menawarkan skema yang sama dengan Proyek Kilang Balikpapan untuk Kilang Cilacap.

“Kalau tidak terjadi kesepakatan, ada skema yang sama dengan di Kilang Balikpapan. Existing kilang tidak di-spin off, jadi bangun kilang sendiri saja. Jadi semoga kesepakatan akan ada," kata dia.

Pertamina telah menggandeng Saudi Aramco untuk menggarap proyek ini sejak 2014 silam. Pada 2016, keduanya bahkan telah menandatangani perjanjian pembentukan perusahaan patungan (Joint Venture Development Agreement/ JVDA). Namun, hingga kini, keduanya belum juga membentuk perusahaan patungan, hal ini lantaran belum ada kesepakalan valusi aset. 

      Terkait valuasi aset, hal ini dibutuhkan untuk memenuhi salah satu permintaan perusahaan migas Arab Saudi itu, yakni spin-off aset untuk selanjutnya dimasukkan dalam perusahaan patungan (joint venture).

Namun, permasalahan perbedaan valuasi aset Kilang Cilacap ini sudah berlarut-larut. Kilang Cilacap ditargetkan mulai beroperasi pada 2025. Pasca upgrading, kapasitas pengolahan minyak mentah Kilang Cilacap akan naik dari 348 ribu barel per hari (bph) menjadi 400 ribu bph. 

     Selanjutnya, akan ada tambahan produksi bensin (gasoline) 80 ribu bph, solar 60 ribu bph, dan avtur 40 ribu bph. Produksi bahan bakar naik signifikan lantaran kemampuan kilang mengolah minyak mentah menjadi produk jadi (NCI) naik dari 74% menjadi 92-98%.

Working on the Oil and Gas Block, Pertamina is Looking for Partners

To maximize the development of a number of oil and gas fields, PT Pertamina does not want to be alone, the state-owned oil and gas company is looking for business partners to support the project. Moreover, Pertamina has begun to manage oil and gas blocks that are very strategic, such as the Mahakam Block since early 2018.

By managing the Mahakam Block, Pertamina needs jumbo funding. PT Pertamina President Director Nicke Widyawati said Pertamina was looking for partners for the Mahakam Block.

the Mahakam Block

"The process has not yet begun, but several companies have expressed their wishes," Nicke said.

Nicke Widyawati

Even so, Nicke made sure everything happened internally. Nicke was reluctant to reveal more about the process of finding this strategic partner. Pertamina does need to build a business partnership. Because, until now Pertamina has just partnered with business partners in 30% of the oil and gas blocks that they manage.

Meanwhile, the average global oil and gas company has a partnership for 80% of oil and gas blocks managed. It's just that Pertamina's management has not set a target of what percentage increase in third party investment. Nicke revealed, Pertamina was completing a study for a number of potential work areas (WK) offered to potential investors.

"We hope that by the end of this year the list (block oil and gas) has been released and has begun to invite potential partners," Nicke said.

Nicke Widyawati

At present, Pertamina manages 99 oil and gas assets at home and abroad through a number of subsidiaries. Nicke said the partners they were looking for were companies with experience in implementing proven technologies. In addition, Pertamina also made the financial aspects of potential partners as consideration.

"Partnership also opens up the possibility of Pertamina to enter into a block of global companies abroad," Nicke said.

On the other hand, Pertamina learned from what happened in the Mahakam Block. Since managing the Mahakam Block in 2018, production has tended to decline until now.

"In 2017, only four wells were drilled, so when Pertamina entered, we carried out massive exploration," Nicke said.

Through exploration efforts, the rate of decline that originally reached 57% was successfully suppressed to 25%. Learn from experience "said Nicke.

Garap Blok Migas, Pertamina Mencari Mitra

Demi memaksimalkan pengembangan sejumlah lapangan minyak dan gas (migas), PT Pertamina tidak mau sendirian, Perusahaan migas milik pemerintah ini mencari mitra bisnis untuk mendukung proyek tersebut. Apalagi Pertamina mulai mengelola blok migas yang sangat strategis, seperti Blok Mahakam sejak awal 2018 lalu. 

Dengan mengelola Blok Mahakam, Pertamina membutuhkan pendanaan jumbo. Direktur Utama PT Pertamina Nicke Widyawati, menyatakan Pertamina sedang mencari mitra untuk Blok Mahakam. 

"Prosesnya belum mulai, namun beberapa perusahaan sudah menyampaikan keinginannya," kata Nicke.

Meskipun demikian, Nicke memastikan semuanya berlangsung secara internal. Nicke enggan mengungkapkan lebih jauh mengenai proses pencarian mitra strategis ini. Pertamina memang perlu membangun kongsi bisnis. Sebab, hingga kini Pertamina baru saja menggandeng mitra bisnis di 30% blok migas yang mereka kelola. 

Sementara, rata-rata perusahaan migas global menjalin kemitraan untuk 80% blok migas yang dikelola. Hanya saja manajemen Pertamina belum memasang target berapa persentase peningkatan investasi pihak ketiga tersebut. Nicke mengungkapkan, Pertamina sedang merampungkan kajian untuk sejumlah wilayah kerja (WK) yang potensial ditawarkan ke calon investor. 

"Kami berharap akhir tahun ini sudah merilis daftar (blok migas) dan mulai mengundang calon mitra," kata Nicke.

Saat ini, Pertamina mengelola 99 aset migas di dalam dan luar negeri melalui sejumlah anak usaha. Nicke bilang, mitra yang mereka cari adalah perusahaan yang sudah berpengalaman dalam mengimplementasikan teknologi yang sudah terbukti. Selain itu, Pertamina turut menjadikan aspek finansial calon mitra sebagai bahan pertimbangan. 

"Partnership juga membuka kemungkinan Pertamina untuk masuk ke dalam blok para perusahaan global di luar negeri," kata Nicke. 

Di sisi lain, Pertamina belajar dari apa yang terjadi di Blok Mahakam. Sejak mangelola Blok Mahakam pada 2018, produksi blok tersebut cenderung menurun hingga kini. 

"Tahun 2017 pengeboran hanya empat sumur, sehingga ketika Pertamina masuk, kami melakukan eksplorasi secara masif," tutur Nicke. 

Melalui upaya eksplorasi, laju penurunan yang semula mencapai 57% berhasil ditekan hingga 25%. Belajar dari pengalaman" kata Nicke.

2 New Options for Aramco

PT Pertamina (Persero) ensured the submission of two refinery project development options in order to continue its cooperation with Saudi Aromco. Pertamina President Director Nicke Widyawati said that with Saudi Aramco at present the company already has two cooperation options. According to him, the first option is the initial cooperation scheme, as discussed so far at the Cilacap Refinery.

There is one more option, if there is no agreement on the valuation price. There is a similar scheme as in Balikpapan. So the existing refineries are not spin off, so the scheme will only build the facilities, "he said at the 2019 Pertamina Energy Forum press conference.

For the second option, Pertamina and Aramco do not need to spin off or not enter the valuation of existing refineries. Under this scheme, cooperation with Saudi Aramco is limited to new units. However, Pertamina and Saudi Aramco are continuing negotiations on the work on the Cilacap Refinery Project, mainly about valuation.

"We hope that with these two options, an agreement with Aramco can happen immediately before the end of 2019.

Ignatius Tallulembang, Director of the Pertamina Processing and Petrochemical Megaproject, said Aramco was still focused on completing the asset valuation process at the Cilacap Refinery. Later, with this new scheme the two companies will form a joint venture to build a new refinery facility in Cilacap without including Pertamina's existing assets.

Pertamina still wants to be the majority owner of the Cilacap RDMP project. In the Cilacap Refinery project Pertamina has a 55% majority stake and Saudi Aramco 45%. The division is in accordance with the agreement of the two companies in the head of agreement signed at the end of 2015. According to the notes, the finding of an agreement on the asset valuation of the Cilacap refinery did not immediately open up new partnership opportunities in the development plan of one of the national strategic projects.

Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan

Because of the nearly three-year agreement establishing a Pertamina-Aramco joint venture in the Cilacap Refinery Development Master Plan (RDMP) project, the future of this oil and gas cooperation is still a big question mark. Maritime and Investment Coordinating Minister Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said the government was still awaiting the results of the valuation of Pertamina refinery assets by international financial consultants. However, based on provisional estimates, Luhut said there are still differences in asset valuations of around US $ 1.5 billion.

"(With) Aramco we are evaluating because the difference is still US $ 1.5 billion. So let's see, "he said.

Erick Thohir

Signs of the search for new partners were planned by SOE Minister Erick Thohir on October 29 after attending a coordination meeting with the Coordinating Minister for Maritime and Investment.

2 Opsi Baru untuk Aramco

PT Pertamina (Persero) memastikan pengajuan dua opsi pengembangan proyek kilang demi melanjutkan kerja samanya dengan Saudi Aromco. Direktur Utama Pertamina Nicke Widyawati mengatakan dengan Saudi Aramco saat ini pihaknya sudah memiliki dua opsi kerja sama. Menurutnya, opsi pertama adalah skema kerja sama awal, seperti yang sudah dibahas selama ini di Kilang Cilacap. 

Ada satu opsi lagi, jika tidak ada kesepakatan di harga  valuasi. Ada skema yang sama seperti di Balikpapan. Jadi eksisting kilangnya tidak di spin off, jadi skemanya nanti hanya membangun fasilitasnya saja, “ ujarnya dalam konferensi pers Pertamina Energy Forum 2019.

Untuk opsi kedua, Pertamina dan Aramco tidak perlu melakukan spin off atau tidak memasukkan valuasi kilang eksisting. Dalam skema ini, kerja sama dengan Saudi Aramco hanya sebatas untuk unit baru. Namun Pertamina dan Saudi Aramco masih melanjutkan negosiasi kerja sama pengerjaan Proyek Kilang Cilacap, utamanya soal valuasi. 

“Kita harapkan dengan adanya dua opsi ini kesepakatan dengan Aramco bisa segera terjadi sebelum akhir tahun 2019. 

Ignatius Tallulembang, Direktur Megaproyek Pengolahan dan Petrokimia Pertamina, mengatakan Aramco masih fokus untuk menyelesaikan proses valuasi aset di Kilang Cilacap. Nantinya, dengan skema baru ini kedua perusahaan membentuk perusahaan patungan untuk membangun fasilitas kilang baru di Cilacap tanpa memasukan perhitungan aset eksisting milik Pertamina. 

Pertamina tetap berkeinginan menjadi pemilik mayoritas proyek RDMP Cilacap. Pada proyek Kilang Cilacap Pertamina memiliki saham mayoritas 55% dan Saudi Aramco 45%. Pembagian tersebut sudah sesuai dengan kesepakatan kedua perusahaan dalam head of agreement yang ditandatangani akhir 2015. Menurut catatan, tidak segera ditemukannya kesepakatan pada valuasi aset kilang Cilacap membuka peluang kemitraan baru dalam rencana pengembangan salah satu proyek strategis nasional itu. 

Karena Hampir tiga tahun perjanjian pembentukan perusahaan patungan Pertamina-Aramco dalam proyek Refinery Development Master Plan (RDMP) Kilang Cilacap, masa depan kerja sama migas ini masih menjadi tanda tanya besar. Menteri Koordinator Maritim dan Investasi Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan mengatakan pemerintah masih menunggu hasil valuasi aset Kilang Pertamina oleh konsultan keuangan internasional. Hanya saja, berdasarkan perkiraan sementara, Luhut menyebut masih ada perbedaan valuasi aset sekitar US$1,5 miliar. 

“(Dengan) Aramco kami sedang evaluasi karena selisihnya masih ada US$1,5  miliar. Jadi mari kita lihat,” tuturnya.

Tanda-tanda pencarian mitra baru pun telah direncanakan oleh Menteri BUMN Erick Thohir pada 29 Oktober lalu  seusai mengikut rapat koordinasi dengan Menteri Koordinator Maritim dan Investasi.

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.

Selain itu, suplai gas ke PGN di Jawa juga dipasok dari metering daerah Pagar Dewa, yakni dari Lapangan Paku Gajah, Kuang, Merbau, dan SP1 Pagar Dewa sebanyak kurang lebih 65 MMscfd. 

“Jadi masih aman suplai gas kami baik ke Palembang maupun yang ke Jawa,” katanya.

Selain itu, Pertamina EP Asset 2 juga akan mulai mengoperasikan satu sumur baru, yakni Talang Jimar (TLI) 258. Sumur ini ditargetkan mampu memproduksi minyak sebanyak 175-500 barel per hari (bph) dengan gas yang terasosiasi sebanyak 0,5 MMScfd.
