As in Europe, gas will have a prominent place in Indonesia’s energy mix for many decades to come. LNG has come up as an interesting energy source and this is an area where Norway is a world leader in terms of technology, equipment and industrial players throughout the entire LNG value chain.
Echoing this Pertamina, MIGAS, BPHMIGAS, PNG and the Indonesian National Ship Owners Association and other Indonesian partners were represented at a high level. Key Norwegian companies in the fields of LNG, Energy and shipping such as Höegh LNG, Golar LNG, DNV and Statoil among others represented the Norwegian side.
