RATU Optimistic About Capturing Opportunities Amid Rising Global Oil Prices

Jakarta — PT Raharja Energi Cepu Tbk (RATU) is monitoring global energy market developments, which have shown rising crude oil prices in recent weeks. Global oil prices have even returned to levels above USD 100 per barrel, driven by escalating geopolitical tensions that could potentially disrupt global energy supply.

Rising oil prices generally create positive sentiment for the energy sector, as they increase the economic value of upstream oil and gas projects and encourage investment activity in the energy sector. With rising global oil prices, the company anticipates improved performance from its energy asset portfolio.

RATU has economic interests in assets in the Jabung and Cepu regions that produce crude oil and condensate, which generally have a direct correlation with global oil price movements. Consequently, rising global oil prices have the potential to positively impact the company’s revenue and margins.

Amid these global energy market dynamics, the company is also strengthening its growth strategy through exploration and planned acquisition of several strategic energy assets deemed to have attractive long-term prospects. Adrian Hartadi, Director of PT Raharja Energi Cepu Tbk, stated that rising global oil prices present an opportunity for the company to strengthen its energy investment portfolio.

“The company continues to monitor developments in global energy commodity prices. With rising global oil prices, the economic value of the energy assets held by the company also has the potential to increase. Given that the company’s assets have a direct correlation with global oil prices, the price increases can generally have a positive impact on the company’s revenue, and ultimately have the potential to increase the company’s profitability or net profit,” Adrian said in an official statement on Monday (9 March 2026).

As an energy sector investment company, RATU is committed to continuing its growth strategy through sustainable development of its energy asset portfolio, while adhering to good corporate governance principles and prudent risk management in facing the dynamics of the global energy industry.
