JAKARTA - The government has asked Cooperation Contract Contractors (KKKS), especially in the northern part of Sumatra, to optimize oil and gas potential, especially in exploration activities. Director General of Oil and Gas Tutuka Ariadji explained, the goal is that the G&G concept of the new oil and gas potential target can be finalized so that it can follow the success of the disclosure in several previous exploration wells.
"In addition to encouraging efficiency in existing operations by reducing the presence of an enhanced / planned shutdown, the Government asks the KKKS to immediately optimize oil and gas potential, one of which is in terms of exploration activities," he told the media quoted on Saturday, January 28.
