2017年，印尼對(duì)油氣生產(chǎn)協(xié)議采用了“產(chǎn)量分成”合同，即承包商承擔(dān)勘探和生產(chǎn)成本，以換取保留更大比例的油氣儲(chǔ)量。

這與以前采用的“成本回收”合同有所不同，即政府償還承包商承擔(dān)的勘探和生產(chǎn)成本，以換取公司石油和天然氣收益的更高份額。

印尼能源部在周六的一份聲明中表示：“通過能源和礦產(chǎn)資源部，政府正式允許投資者靈活選擇油氣合作合同的形式。這一變化是為了提供法律確定性，并增加對(duì)上游油氣業(yè)務(wù)活動(dòng)——新油井的勘探和鉆探的投資?！?/span>

根據(jù)修訂后的法律，即將到期的合同不再必須從成本回收合同轉(zhuǎn)換為產(chǎn)量分成合同。如果指定了國營石油公司PT Pertamina或其附屬公司，則由石油部決定合作合同。

Indonesia allows oil and gas investors to pick their own contract options

Indonesia announced over the weekend that it had made revisions to a 2017 law that will give oil and gas investors more flexibility when choosing their contract options for exploration.

The revisions, which came into effect on July 16, allow contractors to choose between different sharing contracts including the “cost recovery” and “gross split” systems in an effort to boost investment.

Indonesia adopted the “gross split” scheme for oil and gas production deals in 2017, in which contractors shoulder the cost of exploration and production in exchange for retaining a bigger portion of the oil and gas they recover.

That represented a shift from the “cost recovery” scheme used previously, in which the government reimbursed the exploration and production costs borne by the contractors in exchange for a higher share of companies’ oil and gas earnings.

“The government, through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, is officially allowing flexibility for investors to choose the form of oil and gas cooperation contracts,” the energy ministry said in a statement on Saturday.

“This change is to provide legal certainty and increase investment in upstream oil and gas business activities,” it added, referring to the exploration and drilling of new wells.

Under the revised law, expiring contracts no longer have to be converted to gross split production sharing contracts from cost recovery contracts.

In the case where state oil company PT Pertamina or its affiliates are appointed, the ministry will determine the cooperation contract.
