Interview with Mr. Aris Setiawan
VP Exploration – Kangean Energy Indonesia
What is your opinion about the current oil and gas exploration?
Oil and gas exploration has so much potential to be developed.
What needs to be considered is how to bring up concepts that can be developed for exploration.
“Oil is found in the mind of men”. If the concept for exploration can be optimized, it is not difficult to find new oil in new major area.
So, we should not only focus on existing attractive resources. In fact, there are many new resources that turn out to be hot spots. There are still many areas that need to be studied and then analyzed for their potential.
In addition, there is a need for trial for things that have not been done normally. For example, hazard. Who knows that hazard can probably be repaired or even produced? Sometimes things that are currently considered unconventional, are the new potential that can be applied in the future. (SPE)
