Inpex Says Indonesia Seeks Accelerating Abadi LNG Project

Indonesia is looking to speed up the Abadi liquefied natural gas project, with energy demand rising domestically and across the region, according to the head of Inpex Corp.

“The Indonesian government requests an acceleration of the project, which I understand, because Indonesia needs a lot of energy to feed its economic growth,” Takayuki Ueda, Chief Executive Officer of the Japanese oil and gas producer, said in an interview on the sidelines of the Energy Intelligence Forum in London. “We try our best, but it’s very challenging.”
