State oil and gas company Pertamina has received offers from a great number of foreign and local investors to cooperate in exploring for oil and gas at the former?s concessions across the country.
?There are 100 companies offering to cooperate with us, including ExxonMobil, Total, ConocoPhilips, Santos, Amerada Hess and Anadarco,? Tri S Windono, Pertamina?s development director, told Petromindo in Luwuk, Central Sulawesi on Wednesday.
Among the blocks being eyed by the investors are Sumut I, Sumsel 3, Jatim 2 and Kaltim 1, Tri said, adding that Anadarco, Amerada Hess, Santos and Total were particularly interested in the East Java area.
He said Pertamina was waiting for ?directives? from the government on how to respond the cooperation proposals. (Godang)
