Outline:
➢ Background and Purpose of the Project
➢ Phase I: CCS (Phase II: CCUS)
➢ Timeline of the CCS project (SATREPS 2014 -
2017) and planned CO2 injection activity (ADB
bacth 2 and JICA extension)

Background and Purpose of the Project
Due to the rapid growth of the economy, energy consumption in
Indonesia is increasing. Further development of oil and gas fields in
Indonesia is required. However, some of gas fields in Indonesia contain
relatively high CO2 gas and its emission into the atmosphere is not
appropriate for global warming perspectives.
By applying CCS technology to Gundih gas field that has high CO2
proportion, we would like to propose a sophisticated CCS technology
during the gas production. In order to predict CO2 distribution after
the injection, several monitoring technologies should be developed.

Present World Crisis
Peak Oil Climate Change

To stop global warming
• It will take
① increased energy efficiency;
② increased renewable energy; and
③ the decarbonisation of power generation
from fossil fuels.
• The only technology available to mitigate
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from large-
scale fossil fuel usage is CO2 capture and
storage (CCS). (Source: CO2 Capture and
Storage, IEA, 2008)

INDONESIA’s Commitment on Climate Change
November 30th 2015
CCS and CCUS
29% emissions reduction from BAU by 2030
and 41% with international support scenario
Related to Energy:
Contributions can be given by introducing
CCS and CO2-EOR (CCUS) to the
community and implementing these
approaches in Indonesian HC fields

✓ The Gundih gas field in Central Java has been in operation since the
end of 2013. The produced gas is expected ~60 million standard
cubic feet of gas per day over the next decade. The CO2 content of
the produced gas is ~21%.

Concept of CCS

✓ After processing at the Central Processing Plant, around 15% of the
CO2 is separated into an almost pure CO2 stream equivalent to ~800
tons per day of CO2. To date, the separated CO2 has been flared into
the atmosphere.
✓ The Gundih Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) pilot project will
inject around 30 tons of CO2 per day over a two year period (for total
injection of ~20,000 tons).

✓ The target formation is the Ngrayong Formation, which is composed
of sandstone and lies at a depth of 830 – 1,100 m below surface.
Geological and other feasibility studies, regulatory framework
development and public engagement activities have been carried out
since 2012.

designing and constructing the surface facilities for CO2 injection
targeted to be started by the end of 2019.
