Sinar plans CPO mill in Irian<\/p>\n
JAKARTA (JP): Plantation company PT Sinar Mas announced on
\nFriday it would build a crude palm oil (CPO) processing plant and
\na port to support transportation of its production in Jayapura
\nregency, Irian Jaya.<\/p>\n
Company general manager M. Angwarmase was quoted by Antara as
\nsaying the plant would have production capacity of 60 tons per
\nday. It will be built in Kaureh subdistrict.<\/p>\n
It will process oil palm produced by the company into CPO,
\nwhich will then be sold to Surabaya, Jakarta and overseas.<\/p>\n
Its oil palm production is currently processed at a CPO plant
\nowned by state plantation company PT Perkebunan Nusantara II.
\nHowever, the facility, which has annual production capacity of
\n30,000 tons, is inadequate to meet the company's increased CPO
\nproduction in the regency.<\/p>\n
Angwarmase said Sinar Mas also would build a port in Demta
\nsubdistrict in the regency for the shipment of its CPO products.<\/p>\n
Sinar Mas is developing 22,157 hectares of oil palm
\nplantations in Jayapura, about 13,000 hectares of which have been
\nplanted. (gis)<\/p>",
