Inpex Corp. has released a statement claiming that it has received a notification from the Indonesian government instructing it to propose a new development plan for the Abadi LNG project.
This follows the recent news that the Indonesian government had decided not to proceed with a floating LNG (FLNG) project, instead opting for an onshore LNG plant.
Joko Widodo, the President of Indonesia, reportedly said in March 2016: “This is a long-term project that concerns hundreds of trillions of rupiah. From these calculations, we have decided to build it onshore.”
The President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, will soon make a decision on whether to build the US$15 million Masela Abadi LNG plant offshore or opt for an onshore alternative.
