The Indonesian Navy have signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the
downstream oil and gas regulatory body BPH Migas on monitoring and
safeguarding fuel transporters in the country's waters.
Navy Chief of Staff Vice Adm. Agus Suhartono will sign the MoU
during a ceremony on the KRI Tanjung Nusanive warship moored at Tanjung
Priok main naval base. Last year, in an unprecedented move, BPH Migas
named private fuel distributors – AKR and Malaysian-based oil and gas
firm Petronas – as the new subsidized fuels distributors for the year
2010 along with Pertamina. Previously, it was only state oil and gas
company Pertamina that had the rights to distribute subsidized fuels.
