In order to complete the regulations related to CBM development, the contractual terms and<br />

conditions for CBM development are now being formulated and will be issued soon.<br />

CONCLUSIONS<br />

1. A recent CBM study has identified a total of 450 Tcf of prospective CBM resources<br />

within eleven of Indonesia’s onshore coal basins. The potential of CBM as an energy<br />

source is promising and this will increase national <strong>gas</strong> reserves and contribute for energy<br />

back up in the near future.<br />

2. The Government of Indonesia has initiated the first pilot project for CBM exploration in<br />

Indonesia. This first pilot project was started in 2003 and is located in the Rambutan Field,<br />

South Sumatera Province. The pilot project is scheduled to be completed by the end of<br />

2007.<br />

3. Learning from the experience of CBM exploration in USA, a pattern of five closely<br />

spaced drill holes has been implemented on the CBM pilot project. The pattern of pilot<br />

production wells is also designed to study the nature of CO 2 injection in relation with<br />

both enhanced CBM recovery as well as CO 2 sequestration in the Rambutan Field.<br />

4. As new energy sources, CBM is expected to contribute around 1 – 2 % of the total energy<br />

in year 2025. In order to achieve this target road map of CBM development program has<br />

been set up.<br />

5. In order to support the growth of CBM business in Indonesia, the government of<br />

Indonesia has issued Ministerial Regulation No. 033/2006 concerning Business Activity<br />

of Coalbed Methane Development. The contractual terms and conditions for CBM<br />

Development are now being formulated and will be issued soon.<br />
