Speaking with the press after their meeting in Jakarta on April 14 Indonesian Energy and Mines Minister Sudirman Said stressed Norway’s advanced deep sea technology and Indonesia’s abundant deep sea oil reserves will lead to a highly fruitful partnership.
Indonesia’s state oil and gas firm PT Pertamina and Norway’s state company State Oil will cooperate on the initiative.
