Indonesia Confirms China LNG Deal for 25 Yrs

JAKARTA (Reuters) - Indonesia's state oil firm Pertamina confirmed on
Tuesday it would sign a lucrative liquefied natural gas deal with China
National Offshore Oil Corp (CNOOC) on Thursday which would run for 25 years.

Indonesia had only previously said it expected the agreement - under which
oil giant BP plc will supply gas from the giant Tangguh field in the remote
Papua province to a proposed terminal in Fujian - would cover a 25
year-period.

"Pertamina and CNOOC will sign the gas sales agreement to supply LNG to
Fujian on Thursday. We have already agreed on the price and for a period of
25 years," Pertamina president director Baihaki Hakim told reporters.
