Indonesia's South Jambi B block flows first gas

The South Jambi B block onshore Sumatra in Indonesia, operated by Hong Kong-based Jindi Group, has flowed first gas, the country’s upstream regulator SKKMigas said on June 29.

The block is producing at a rate of 2mn ft³/day of gas, which will be gradually ramped up to 12mn ft³/day. The gas will be supplied to industries and state-owned PLN’s power plant in Jambi on the island of Sumatra, the regulator said.
