We currently hold participating interests in twelve Production Sharing Contractors (PSCs), in nine of which Eni serves as the operator in deep water areas with active exploration and development programs. The PSCs are spread from western (Krueng Mane, Aceh) to eastern part of Indonesia (Arguni I, West Papua), and also from the northern (Ambalat, North Kalimantan) to the southern border of Indonesia (West Timor, Offshore Timor Sea I, East Nusa Tenggara). The unique locations of Eni in Indonesia’s portfolio areas reflect the company’s philosophy in operating in core business areas as well as frontier areas to manage the risk and achieve the best possible results in terms of hydrocarbon discovery.
Products and Services

We create energy
We integrate our business activity with social and environmental sustainability, in order to create shared, long-term value. In Indonesia, for example, we launched the Jangkrik and Merakes projects in the Exploration & Production sector, as well as working to improve services through our local development projects, including the introduction of renewable energy, preservation of coastal areas and support to create a self-reliant community on the island of Borneo. In 2022 the activities and initiatives in the fields of access to water and renewable energy progressed to support the local development areas of Samoja, Kutai Kartanegara and East Kalimantan.
Jangkrik
The project, which was developed and put into production in a very short time, is located off the shore of the Kalimantan area, within the Muara Bakau block (within which Eni is an operator, with 55%), in the offshore basin in the deep waters of Kutei, at around 400 metres below the surface and 70 km off the coast of the eastern Kalimantan region. Production at the two Jangkrik Complex gas fields began in May 2017, with a time-to-market of just three and a half years following our decision to invest in the project.
Discover JangkrikMerakes
The Merakes development project, located in the Kutei Basin in the waters of the East Kalimantan region, will see the drilling of a series of subsea wells, as well as the creation of a dedicated transportation system, at a depth of around 1500 metres. The project is one of the results of our near field exploration strategy, which allows us to optimise our synergies with existing infrastructures for Jangkrik and also to reduce the costs and timings associated with construction and production start-up.
Discover MerakesWaste management in Samboja
In 2018 we began the project “Clean, Green and Healthy Samboja”, which involved the community of Samboja in recycling and reducing home waste. With the help of a group of environmental experts, local families were taught about taking care of their home environment and using barren land to grow fruit and vegetables.
