Rudi Rubiandini, Operation Control Deputy at upstream authority BPMIGAS, will take the vice ministerial position at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, according to speculations swirling among industry players and governmental officials

?It?s Rudi,? said one informed source.

When asked for confirmation, Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Jero Wacik only said ?Not now, please. The President will announce it.?

The position has been left vacant since April this year after the death of former Vice Minister Widjajono Partowidagdo.

When asked for comments, Rudi said: ?Thank you for the information. By the way, let?s see what the President will say.?
