"SKK Migas as the government's extension of the upstream oil and gas industry is committed to supporting government policies to achieve its goals, including maintaining sustainable development, and achieving national economic resilience and resilience," said Deputy Head of SKK Migas Nanang Abdul Manaf quoted from ANTARA, Tuesday, November 7.

This socialization activity involved around 250 participants from representatives from the Coordinating Ministry for Maritime Affairs, Coordinating Ministry for the Economy, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Customs, Bank Indonesia, KKKS, and related functions in SKK Migas.

Also present at the event were the Secretary of the Coordinating Ministry for the Economy Susiwijono Moegiarso who appeared as a resource person.

Nanang said that PP Number 36 of 2023 along with its derivative regulations, namely the Minister of Finance Regulation Number 73 of 2023 and Bank Indonesia Regulation Number 07 of 2023 aim to maintain sustainable development and increase and national economic resilience, which is in line with upstream oil and gas investments that are conducive to maintain national energy resilience.

Nanang said that synergy and collaboration in the upstream oil and gas ecosystem is the key to success in achieving long-term goals.

"The upstream oil and gas industry requires convenience in implementing regulations issued by the government in realizing the government's target of maintaining sustainable development and increasing national economic resilience, including PP Number 36 of 2023 and its derivative regulations," he said.

Furthermore, he conveyed that the SKK Migas initiative to conduct socialization is expected to have direct positive interactions between business actors/investors and policy makers, which in turn can create understanding and synergy between business actors/investors and related ministries/agencies.

"From today's socialization, of course, more in-depth communication and discussion will be continued with a team from Bank Indonesia so that its implementation in the upstream oil and gas industry can run smoothly (mulus)," said Nanang.

Meanwhile, Secretary of the Coordinating Ministry for the Economy Susiwijono Moegiarso conveyed according to the direction of the President and the Coordinating Minister for the Economy to evaluate the three months of implementation of PP Number 36 of 2023 which is due at the end of November 2023.

"This is related to the implementation of compliance with the implementation of PP 36 of 2022," he said.

He explained that in the oil and gas sector there are specialities compared to other commodities due to oil and gas exports, there are trustees (supervisors), there are government parts, there are KKKS parts, and others.

This is different from other sectors that are purely part of the company.

Therefore, he said, the socialization activity was to get input from upstream oil and gas industry players.

This socialization activity is a form of government support for the upstream oil and gas industrial sector which has been in accordance with existing regulations.

The socialization is also intended so that the existence of Government Regulation Number 36 of 2023 and its planned changes will continue to support the business climate in the upstream oil and gas industrial sector.
