::Gas Supply Not So Many as RI Imagined>>

Go Finance Reporting in JAKARTA - Senior Economic Observer Danareksa Research Institute Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa Indonesia gas supply rate is not as much as imagined. Therefore, the domestic distribution must take precedence.

Purbaya explain, today the addition of Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) which is requested by Japan should be reviewed. The reason is to meet domestic supply only the government was out of breath.

"They (Japan) asked for his energy, our own was difficult, first domestic priority. although a lot of our gas supply, not as Valuable as imagined, say officials," said Purbaya in the office of Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Jalan Banteng Square, Jakarta, Thursday (03/31/2011).

LNG, the principle is almost the same as oil, take a long time to find and develop. Plus has the export agreement with Singapore, Malaysia, China, and also Japan.

"LNG together with oil, can not develop quickly. Look for too long, when we have a long-term commitment to Singapore, Malaysia, China. In Japan itself is a little difficult," he said.

In addition, the government's attitude is often less mature will calculate the allocation of gas contracts as well be one reason. For example, in 2000-2002, Indonesia has signed a long-term gas supply contract with Malaysia.

"Our's wrong in 2000-2002, we did not realize that gas can be used inside the country. So we are negligent when Malaysia looking for long-term contract, within the country itself did not notice it," he said. (GoFinance)
