This was conveyed by Pertamina Senior Vice President Research and Technology Innovation, Oki Muzara, at the Conference of the Parties (COP28) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, on Saturday (12/2). Pertamina proved it through the Carbon Capture Utilization Storage (CCS) and Carbon Capture Utilization Storage (CCUS) programs.
In his presentation, Oki said there are 400 gigatons (GT) of CCS potential and CCS/CCUS business capacity reaching 60 million tons per annum (MTPA) in Indonesia.
