By Godang Sitompul

PT Pertamina Hulu Energi (PHE) plans to conduct dewatering process of two coal bed methane (CBM) wells in Tanjung Enim block, South Sumatra.

?At the end of this year, two wells will undergo dewatering (process) including TECBM#01P and TECBM#02,? PHE?s South Sumatra GMB Asset Manager, Eko Rudi Tantoro told Petromindo.com Thursday.

Eko said that Tanjung Enim block operator Dart Energy is currently making equipment preparation for the dewatering process. The Tanjung Enim block is co-owned by Dart, PHE, and PT Tambang Batubara Bukit Asam (PTBA). Australia-listed Art holds a 45 percent interest, while the remainders are equally owned by PHE and PTBA.

?If the equipment are all prepared, the plan is for (the dewatering) to be implemented next week this month,? Eko said.
