State owned oil and gas company PT Pertamina is in talks with BP Indonesia, the operator of Offshore Northwest Java PSC, to buy crudes from the Arjuna field of the block, a Pertamina official said Thursday.
?We plan to buy around 250,000 barrels of crude oil for the Cilacap refinery over a period of three months starting December this year,? Pertamina?s crude oil marketing staff Nina Sulistiawati told Petromindo.Com.
The Cilacap refinery in Central Java has an crude-processing capacity of 230,000 barrels a day.
Nina said crude supplies from local producers to the refinery will significantly increase next year. (godang)
