Nine LNG cargoes of the previously announced 14 uncommitted LNG cargoes from the Badak LNG plant in East Kalimantan have found buyers through the spot market, according to a senior official of state-owned oil and gas firm PT Pertamina.

Wiko Migantoro, Vice President of LNG Directorate at Pertamina, said on Tuesday that of the nine LNG cargoes, three were sourced from Eni?s Muara Bakau gas block, and six from Total?s Mahakam block.

He said that the cargoes were sold to PPT Energy Trading and Japan?s Mitsui. He did not provide further details.
