BP Migas LNG marketing team to approach Jiangshu

Indonesian upstream oil and gas authority BP Migas said on Monday that it would intensify LNG marketing approach to the Chinese province of Jiangshu by sending a marketing team this month.

"Jiangshu's potential demand is 3 million tons per annum starting 2007-2008 as indicated by the province's officials," said Joko Harsono, marketing division head of BP Migas on a sideline of a conference.

He, however, said that until now, BP Migas had no information whether Jiangshu would purchase the LNG directly or would open tender.

Joko said the LNG would be sourced from Bontang. (godang)
