Indonesia was officially readmitted by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) during the organization?s ministerial meeting on Dec. 4, 2015 in Vienna, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources said in a statement on Friday.

Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Sudirman Said was present at the meeting.

The meeting also accepted Widhyawan Prawiratatmadja as OPEC governor representing Indonesia.

Indonesia is among the founders of OPEC but the country froze its membership in 2008 on the grounds it has turned into a net oil importing country.
