Indonesia says 70pc of its gas stays home — Singapore feels the cut first

Starting Saturday, Indonesia will reduce its natural gas exports to Singapore by 31 billion British thermal units per day, with 15 BBTUD coming from the Natuna Islands and 16 BBTUD from Sumatra.

This decision, confirmed by SKK Migas chief Djoko Siswanto, directly impacts Singapore as its gas exports are sent there.

The move follows statements from Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Bahlil Lahadalia, indicating a shift toward prioritizing domestic gas use, particularly to bolster the downstream petrochemical industry, as Indonesia reassesses its current export allocation where 30% is exported and 70% is domestically consumed.

JAKARTA, Oct 24 — Effective Saturday, Indonesia begins reducing natural gas exports to Singapore by a planned 31 billion British thermal units per day (BBTUD), according to the country’s upstream oil and gas regulator.

Upstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Task Force (SKK Migas) chief Djoko Siswanto said the reduction comprised 15 BBTUD from the Natuna Islands in the South China Sea and 16 BBTUD from Sumatra island in western Indonesia.

“Starting tomorrow (Saturday), we will reduce gas exports to Singapore, 15 BBTUD from Natuna and 16 BBTUD from Sumatra,” he said according to a report by state news agency Antara on Saturday.

Djoko said Singapore was the only country affected by the reduction, as the gas export pipelines involved were connected directly to the city-state.

The announcement follows remarks on Wednesday by Coordinating Minister for Downstreaming and Energy Transition, Bahlil Lahadalia, that the government was considering not extending gas exports to neighbouring countries.

Bahlil, who also serves as Energy and Mineral Resources Minister, said Indonesia would review its gas exports to prioritise domestic consumption, particularly to support the development of downstream petrochemical industries.

He said Indonesia currently exports 30 per cent of its natural gas production, while the remaining 70 per cent is consumed domestically. The allocation would be reviewed, he added. — Bernama

从周六开始，印度尼西亚将减少对新加坡的天然气出口，每天减少 310 亿英热单位，其中 150 亿英热单位来自纳土纳群岛，160 亿英热单位来自苏门答腊。

SKK Migas 首席执行官 Djoko Siswanto 证实了这一决定，该决定将直接影响新加坡，因为新加坡的天然气出口要运往那里。

此前，能源和矿产资源部长巴赫利尔·拉哈达利亚发表声明，表示印尼正在重新评估其目前的出口分配方案，其中 30% 用于出口，70% 用于国内消费，印尼正在将天然气使用优先于国内消费，特别是用于支持下游石化产业。

雅加达，10 月 24 日——据印尼上游油气监管机构称，印尼将从周六开始按计划每天减少 310 亿英热单位（BGTUD）的天然气出口到新加坡。

上游油气监管工作组（SKK Migas）负责人佐科·西斯万托表示，减产幅度包括南海纳土纳群岛的150亿吨/日和印度尼西亚西部苏门答腊岛的160亿吨/日。

据安塔拉通讯社周六报道，他表示：“从明天（周六）开始，我们将减少对新加坡的天然气出口，纳土纳群岛减少150亿立方英尺/日，苏门答腊岛减少160亿立方英尺/日。”

佐科表示，新加坡是唯一受到此次减产影响的国家，因为涉及的天然气出口管道直接与这个城邦国家相连。

此前，下游能源转型协调部长巴赫利尔·拉哈达利亚周三表示，政府正在考虑不再向邻国出口天然气。

巴赫利尔（Bahlil）同时也是能源和矿产资源部长，他表示，印尼将重新审视其天然气出口，优先考虑国内消费，特别是支持下游石化产业的发展。

他表示，印尼目前出口其天然气产量的30%，其余70%供国内消费。他补充说，这一分配比例将会重新评估。——马新社
