Pertamina has signed a joint study agreement (JSA) with South Korea-based KNOC to develop rig-to-carbon capture and storage (CCS) at offshore oil and gas platforms in Indonesia. The study aims to address the challenges that the country faces in the abandonment and site restoration (ASR) of offshore platforms.

The partnership will extend further to other low-carbon business ventures like the development of rig-to-wind farms and rig-to-liquified natural gas (LNG) terminals to transport natural gas to locations where energy facilities are yet to be developed.
