Indonesia has expressed a desire to buy more crude oil from Nigeria, which is expected to boost Nigeria's business relationship with Nigeria.
The indictment was made by the Indonesian Embassy's Head of Economic Affairs, Dwiyatna Widinugraha, who led a delegation from the country to a courtesy call to NNPC's Group Managing Director, Dr Baru Maikanti, at NNPC Towers in Abuja.
Speaking on the purpose of their visit, Mr Widinugraha commended the NNPC for its support for the supply of crude oil that helped Indonesia to achieve enough energy, and added that the country needed additional assistance in the form of increased oil taking oil.
He said that Indonesia with a population of more than 250 million people requires 1.6 million barrels of crude oil daily to meet the growth of energy needs as an emerging economy and would love to have a Government- in-Government contact with Nigeria in that matter.
Giving more light to their mission, Vice President of Pertamina, the Indonesian National Oil Company, Anizar Burlian, said they were in Abuja to thank Nigeria for helping them meet their local oil demand and to further explore the better arrangement of the purchase of high-grade crude oil.
“Over the years, we have bought huge amount of crude oil from Nigeria. We are extremely happy to buy more Nigerian crude oil which is globally rated to be of very high grade and which is very suitable for our refineries,” Mr Burlian stated.
He said they were also interested in investment opportunities in the Nigerian upstream, midstream and downstream sectors of the Nigerian oil industry.
Responding on behalf of the corporation, the Group General Manager, Crude Oil Marketing Division (COMD), Mr Mele Kyari, who was represented by Mr Adokiye Tombomieye, said NNPC would continue to assist Indonesia in the area of crude oil supply, adding that the request for a government-to-government crude supply arrangement should be routed through the President of Nigeria.
On investment, the corporation advised the team to articulate its request in a proposal to enable Management review and act accordingly.Räägi sõbrale... #AFRICA ... spill TEA ABOUT THE TOPIC ABOVE.... Easy on Shade #jaiyeorie
