Sempra and Indonesian Co. May Strike LNG Deal

LCG, August 14, 2003BP Migas is planning to send representatives to the U.S. in order to sell liquefied natural gas to Sempra Energy.

Indonesia is one of the worlds leading LNG providers and recently signed a contract with Mexico for three to six million tons of LNG per year, starting in 2007. Indonesia currently exports over 23 million tons of LNG, mostly to Asia.

BP Migas intends to meet with Sempra at the end of August and hopes to sign a preliminary agreement regarding a possible LNG contract.
