The US Trade and Development Agency has recently announced that it has awarded a grant to Indonesia’s PT NusatamaPropertaPanbil to promote continued economic growth and energy security in Indonesia. The agency’s targeted investment will fund a feasibility study to evaluate the development of an LNG receiving terminal, as well as storage and transhipment facilities at PulauAsam. Its engagement will also create export opportunities for US suppliers of LNG technology. The proposed terminal and related facilities will receive and process LNG for onward inter-island transportation, pipeline injection, or as a marine bunkering fuel, depending upon the final recommendations of the feasibility study.
