JAKARTA - The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources has auctioned off the Working Area (WK) which is included in the Warim Block, namely Akimegah I and AKimeugah II. Director General of Oil and Gas, Tutuka Ariadji, said that his party included these two WKs in the WK category with high risk and asked the Cooperation Contract Contract Contractor (KKKS) to conduct a consortium or cooperation in order to reduce risk.

Tutuka said, in order to immediately explore, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources cut the area that is included in the Lorentz National Park area which is indeed related to the WK.

"Akimegah itu nama dulu Warim. Kita cut untuk tidak berhubungan dengan Taman Lorentz karena harusnya panjang dan harus dengan Unesco selain dengan KLHK," ujarnya dalam acara Menelisik Prospect Energi 2024 Gurih atau Hampar?, Rabu 25 Oktober.

After cutting the WK, Tutuka admitted that there was a reduction in gas potential that could be explored. However, Tutuka said the existing potential was still quite large.

"Because only 10 percent (of which are included in the Lorentz National Park), there is a reduction in potential resources but it is still quite large there. So we stop before the Lorentz Park. It shouldn't be a problem," he said.

The problem, continued Tutuka, is that it is not the WK that intersects directly with the National Park, but the Akimegah area which has not been touched by infrastructure so that the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources categorizes the WK as a high-risk area.

Tutuka also said that the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources had pocketed several KKKS names interested in WK Akimegah but he was reluctant to reveal these names. He reasoned that the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources encouraged the KKKS to form a consortium in developing the WK located in Papua.

"Indeed, at this time we offer and there are those who are interested there but still in the early stages because the time is still long and we hope that it can be better to reduce the risk as a consortium, it's better not to immediately announce that there are those who are interested, but just try it together," explained Tutuka.

For information, the Government offered Akimegah I, which is located in the Mainland of South Papua and Papua Mountains with an area of 10.791 km2.

The government offers a definite commitment of 3 yahun, G&G studies as well as acquisition and processing of 2D/3D seismic or drilling of 1 exploration well.

Second, WK Akimegah II which is located in Mainland, South Papua and Papua Mountains with an area of 12.987 km2.

The government offers a definite commitment of 3 yahun, G&G studies as well as acquisition and processing of 2D/3D seismic or drilling of 1 exploration well.

The government invites Business Entities and Permanent Business Forms that are engaged in the upstream oil and gas industries that have financial and technical capabilities, are able to meet the minimum requirements of Commitment Certain, meet the main requirements and requirements of the Work Area Auction, and have good performance and track records to be able to participate in the 2023 Phase III Oil and Gas Working Area Auction.
