Reduction in Indonesia's gas supply amounts to less than 2% of Singapore’s total daily demand: EMA

Singapore's Energy Market Authority also said that it had contingency plans in place to deal with such reductions.

SINGAPORE: Indonesia’s reduction in gas exports to Singapore on Saturday (Oct 24) amounts to less than 2 per cent of the country’s total daily gas demand, said the Energy Market Authority (EMA).

In response to media queries, an EMA spokesperson said the total reduction of 31 million standard cubic feet of gas a day amounts to 17 British thermal units per day (bbtud) over a period of 18 days.

"This is less than 2 per cent of our total daily gas demand of more than 1,000 bbtud," it said, adding that it understands that importers will pursue all relevant recourse in their contracts for the gas supply disruption, said EMA.

EMA also said that it had contingency plans in place to deal with such reductions.

"These reductions were replaced with other gas sources without incident. Singapore GasCo is operationally ready to import more LNG at any time," it said. " Besides Indonesia, Singapore imports natural gas from other sources around the world," it added. Indonesia began reducing natural gas exports to Singapore, in order to divert more supplies to domestic electricity needs, the country’s upstream oil and gas regulator SKK Migas said in response to CNA’s queries. The diversion involves 31 million standard cubic feet of gas a day, comprising 15 million from Natuna and 16 million from Sumatra. "Power generation companies are further required to maintain sufficient fuel reserves for power generation, including diesel reserves. We therefore have sufficient energy supplies to meet our national demands," it said. GAS SUPPLY DIVERSION SKK Migas had said the gas from Natuna was being diverted to PLN Batam through the WNTS–Pulau Pemping–Batam pipeline. Supplies from Sumatra were being redirected through the TGI pipeline to meet electricity needs in Batam, Bintan and Sumatra. The regulator said the move was intended to "safeguard the reliability of domestic gas supplies for electricity generation". It cited Article 8, Paragraph 1 of Indonesia’s Oil and Gas Law as the basis for prioritising the use of natural gas for domestic needs, and said it would monitor developments daily. Natural gas is used to generate about 95 per cent of Singapore's electricity. CNA has also sent queries to Indonesia’s presidential palace but has yet to receive a response. The move comes days after Energy and an Indonesian minister warned that Jakarta could review energy exports to countries that did not show it sufficient respect. SKK Migas’ response did not link the diversion to those remarks. Singapore imports natural gas through pipelines from Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipped in from international suppliers. In 2025, piped natural gas accounted for 43 per cent of Singapore's total gas imports, while LNG made up the remaining 57 per cent.

It pointed out that in recent months, there were reductions ranging from 20 bbtud to 100 bbtud due to planned or urgent maintenance.

新加坡能源市场管理局也表示，已制定应急计划来应对此类减产情况。

新加坡：能源市场管理局（EMA）表示，印尼周六（10月24日）减少对新加坡的天然气出口，相当于该国每日天然气总需求的不到2%。

针对媒体的询问，欧洲药品管理局 (EMA) 的一位发言人表示，每天减少 3100 万标准立方英尺天然气，相当于 18 天内每天减少 17 个英热单位 (bbtud)。

EMA表示：“这不到我们每日1000亿桶天然气总需求的2%。” EMA还表示，据了解，进口商将根据合同寻求所有相关补救措施，以应对天然气供应中断。

欧洲药品管理局（EMA）还表示，已制定应急计划来应对此类减配。

报告指出，近几个月来，由于计划内或紧急维护，产量减少了 20 bbtud 至 100 bbtud。

“这些减产措施已通过其他天然气来源得到补充，未发生任何意外。新加坡天然气公司已做好随时进口更多液化天然气的运营准备。”该公司表示。

“除了印度尼西亚，新加坡还从世界其他地区进口天然气，”报告补充道。

印尼上游油气监管机构SKK Migas在回复CNA的询问时表示，印尼已开始减少对新加坡的天然气出口，以便将更多天然气供应用于满足国内电力需求。

该改道工程涉及每天 3100 万标准立方英尺的天然气，其中 1500 万来自纳土纳群岛，1600 万来自苏门答腊岛。

声明还指出：“发电公司还必须维持充足的发电燃料储备，包括柴油储备。因此，我们有足够的能源供应来满足国家需求。”

监管机构表示，此举旨在“保障国内天然气供应对发电的可靠性”。

它援引印度尼西亚石油天然气法第 8 条第 1 款作为优先使用天然气满足国内需求的依据，并表示将每日监测事态发展。

新加坡约95%的电力都是用天然气发电的。

CNA也已向印尼总统府发出询问，但尚未收到回复。

就在几天前，印尼能源部和一位部长警告称，雅加达可能会重新评估对那些对印尼不够尊重的国家的能源出口。印尼国家天然气和大气管理局（SKK Migas）的回应并未将此次改道与这些言论联系起来。

新加坡通过管道从印度尼西亚和马来西亚进口天然气，也从国际供应商进口液化天然气（LNG）。
