"Although the oil price decline, we continue to target higher production in the next year," said President Director of PIEP, Slamet Riadhy, in a press conference, in Jakarta, Tuesday (22/12).
He explained, in 2015 PIEP targeted 94 thousand BOEPD, but the realization has actually increased. Production of PIEP until November 2015 reached 113.4 thousand BOEPD.
