According to Reuters, BP has signed a contract with Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN) – an Indonesian power utility – to supply LNG up to 2033.
From 2017 to 2019, BP will supply 20 LNG cargoes per year, which will be sourced from its Tangguh project in West Papua province. From 2020 to 2033, BP will supply an additional 44 LNG cargoes per year. The award of this contract means that all cargoes from the Tangguh Train 3 project have now been committed to buyers.
Christina Verchere, the BP Asia Pacific President, reportedly said: “Today is a major milestone, a positive step in progress of Tangguh Train 3 expansion.”
