“Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto and Energy Minister Bahlil Lahadalia attended the inauguration ceremony for Pertamina’s refinery, whose processing capacity has been raised to 360,000 barrels per day (bpd) from 260,000 bpd, making it the country’s largest refinery in terms of capacity.”
” ‘We must be capable of producing our own food and energy,’ Subianto, the president of Southeast Asia’s biggest economy, said.”
” ‘With the energy sources we have, we can actually produce our own energy, without needing to import energy. This is our goal for the next five to seven years,’ the president added.”
“Thanks to the biodiesel mandate and rising production from the upgraded refinery, Indonesia could be able to stop importing gasoil and jet fuel by 2027, Energy Minister Lahadalia said at the inauguration ceremony.”
