Pertamina Explores SLB Partnership for Technology Providers to Strengthen National Energy Resilience
Pertamina is exploring a strategic partnership with SLB, a global technology provider, to accelerate the increase in national oil and gas production while enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of operations. This exploration is taking place as part of the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston.
This step forms part of Pertamina’s contribution to supporting the national agenda for energy security and self-reliance through increased production and optimisation of domestic resources.
Pertamina’s Deputy CEO, Oki Muraza, emphasised that collaboration with global technology providers is key to unlocking greater production potential while addressing challenges in efficiency and sustainability.
“Collaboration with technology partners like SLB is a strategic step to strengthen national energy resilience. We are not only driving production increases but also ensuring efficient, competitive, and sustainable operations,” he stated in a comment quoted on Friday (8/5/2026).
This partnership exploration encompasses asset optimisation and improved operational reliability, increased oil and gas production, cost efficiency, carbon emission reductions, and strengthened utilisation of digital and data technologies.
SLB is an energy technology company that delivers integrated solutions across the entire energy value chain, from oil and gas exploration and production to the development of digital technologies and low-carbon energy, with a focus on increasing energy access while promoting decarbonisation towards net zero.
With technological capabilities encompassing subsurface development, production systems, and digital and low-carbon solutions, SLB serves as a strategic partner in supporting the transformation and performance enhancement of Indonesia’s upstream oil and gas sector.
This collaboration reflects an oil and gas development approach that does not solely rely on resources but also on technology integration, operational efficiency, and sustainability. The synergy between Pertamina and global partners is expected to accelerate the achievement of national oil and gas production targets.
Through this step, Indonesia is further strengthening its position as an energy investment destination while promoting sustainable energy resilience and supporting national economic growth.
