REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA - Oil and gas contractors have urged the government to put an end to the uncertainties surrounding the sector. Constitutional Court (MK) decided that BP Migas was against the Constitution on November 13, 2012.

"We hope this issue is resolved soon so the current uncertainties can be gotten rid of," Executive Director of the Indonesian Petroleum Association (IPA) Dipnala Tamzil said on Wednesday.

After the Constitutional Court (MK) issued a ruling which led to the dissolution of BP Migas, Tamzil said that the government should provide immediate directives and guidance in order to reduce the potential impact of the current situation on future investment in Indonesia. 

"As a partner of the government, IPA expresses its support and commitment to the government in ensuring the continuation of oil and gas production operation activities. We will also support the government in its efforts to obtain income and energy supplies for the state," Tamzil said.

IPA was established in 1971 and now has a membership comprising 53 national and multinational oil and gas companies, 111 supporting oil and gas industries and some 2,000 individual members.
