Emission reductions were also achieved through production process optimization to improve gas fuel efficiency and reduce methane emissions. In offshore operations, solar PV panels were installed to support energy needs on several platforms in the South Natuna Sea Block B and Sampang Block. Solar PV panels were also deployed in onshore asset operations in Indonesia. Conversion from diesel generators to grid-based power supply was implemented in Oman, the Grati Facilities (East Java), and the Rawa Gas Plant (South Sumatra). In addition, biodiesel was used for supply vessels in Thailand.
"Emission reduction efforts are conducted in compliance with applicable technical and environmental standards. These initiatives will continue and expand in line with the Company’s transformation towards more efficient and lower-carbon operations,” Ronald concluded.
