PGN to Secure Natural Gas Supply from Sengeti Field
Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - As Pertamina’s gas subholding, PT Perusahaan Gas Negara (Persero) Tbk (PGN) plans to bring in additional natural gas supply by utilising stranded gas, particularly in the Sengeti Field. This step is a concrete effort by PGN to provide energy solutions to maintain national energy security.
Leveraging its capabilities and integrated gas infrastructure, PGN is taking a role in utilising gas sources from fields previously deemed uneconomical (stranded gas). In this context, PGN bridges existing challenges by integrating the supply potential from the Sengeti Field into PGN’s natural gas distribution network.
The supply potential from the Sengeti Field is approximately 5 MMSCFD. This additional supply is projected to begin flowing as early as Q4 2028, to meet the energy needs of industrial customers and power plants.
Ultimately, this breakthrough is expected to contribute to state revenue, support the government in gas field development, and ensure the security of sustainable natural gas supply for domestic needs.
“Utilising stranded gas is one of PGN’s strategies to provide natural gas supply to all domestic customers amidst challenges. Gas from the Sengeti Field will add to the pipeline gas supply. PGN ensures the readiness of infrastructure and commercial aspects in accordance with applicable standards and regulations,” said PGN Corporate Secretary Fajriyah Usman in a statement on Monday (22/6/2026).
She stated that utilising gas from the Sengeti Field also adds value for the company, including through the development of gas processing business at the field.
PGN’s achievement in utilising gas from the Sengeti Field is expected to have a positive domino effect for all stakeholders. The utilisation of gas from fields previously deemed unattractive is hoped to support the government’s target of increasing natural gas lifting while spurring investment attractiveness and exploration.
“PGN is committed to obtaining multi-source natural gas to maintain supply reliability while continuing to optimise domestic resources. The Sengeti Field is a manifestation of synergistic collaboration with support from the government and all other stakeholders to provide benefits for the Indonesian people,” she concluded.
