INPEX has announced the extension of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with PT PLN, in regard to long-term LNG supply. The MoU has also been expanded to include joint studies in hydrogen and ammonia and carbon capture and storage (CCS) in relation to the Abadi LNG Project.
The MoU expands on the original, concerning LNG sales and procurement, now with a focus on potential future collaboration.
The scope of the MoU announced today includes conducting joint studies on supplying blue hydrogen and ammonia using natural gas produced from the Abadi LNG Project as co-firing fuel for thermal power plants in Indonesia, as well as on the capture and transport of CO2 emitted from thermal power plants in Indonesia and the storage of this CO2 in the Abadi gas field.
This initiative is expected to contribute to achieving PLN’s goal of net zero emissions by 2060.
