JGC Corporation, in partnership with JGC Indonesia, a subsidiary of JGC Corporation, and PT Rekayasa Industri of Indonesia, has received an order for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of a gas processing plant in Bojonegoro, East Java Province, Indonesia. The lump-sum turnkey contract valued at approximately JPY 100B, of which the JGC Group share is approximately JPY 40B, was awarded by PT Pertamina EP Cepu (PEPC), Indonesia’s state-owned energy company.
The project contract calls for the design and construction of a plant to process 330 mmscfd natural gas (with 1% H2S and 34% CO2 content) for the production of 172 mmscfd sales gas, condensate and so on, from natural gas produced by the unitized Jambaran – Tiung Biru gas field in the Bojonegoro area developed by PEPC and its partners.
The Indonesian government has decided, as one of its important policies, to develop a domestic gas supply network to respond to the increasing energy demand in the country, and the project is listed as a strategic program following that policy.
