UPSTREAM OIL AND GAS BUSINESS, REGIONAL ISSUES AND MULTIPLIER EFFECTS
This executive training provides a practical and strategic understanding of the upstream oil and gas business, with a particular focus on fiscal frameworks, regional issues, and their broader economic impacts.
The course explains the principles behind Indonesia’s Production Sharing Contract (PSC) systems, including Cost Recovery and Gross Split, as well as the mechanisms of government revenue distribution such as DBH Migas, Participating Interest (PI) 10%, and PBB Migas. It also explores how upstream investment contributes to regional economic development through multiplier effects.
IPA Whitepaper
In regard to provide our inputs for a better upstream oil and gas sector in Indonesia, the IPA published a Whitepaper document with the topic of "Achieving Resilience in the Energy Transition to Safeguard Indonesia’s Economic Growth and Sustainable Development".
This document was developed in collaboration between the IPA Convex Committee and Wood Mackenzie. The document had been handed over from the IPA President to the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources during the Opening Ceremony of IPA Convex 2023 on Tuesday, July 25th, 2023.
