PT PLN (Persero) of Indonesia is lacking 22 cargoes of liquefied natural gas needed to meet the fuel needs of power plants in 2015.
“ There is a supply assurance of 34 cargoes of the total LNG needed but there is still a shortage of 22 cargoes for next year, ” Antara news agency cited the company’s fuel and gas division head Suryadi Mardjoeki as saying.
The company has asked the government to fill the LNG shortage, Mardjoeki said.
“ We hope there is immediate assurance on this matter. If not, we will fill the shortage from imports; but for the time being, we will first prioritize the domestic suppliers, ” he added.
