JAKARTA - The government through the Director General of Oil and Gas of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), Tutuka Ariadji assessed that PT Pertamina (Persero) is still able to manage the Rokan Block without partners.

He revealed that until now Pertamina is still able to manage the block previously abandoned by Chevron.

Regarding the possibility of an opportunity to add Pertamina's partners, Tutuka said that his party was still looking back at the conditions and conditions in the future so that they could make the right decisions.

"We'll see the condition later. We'll look forward, indeed in the future. But now we can still do it alone," said Tutuka.
