JAKARTA: State oil and gas firm PT Pertamina has ordered the construction of two vessels from state ship builder PT Dok dan Perkapalan Surabaya (DPS) for US$29.2 million.
"The order of these two vessels is an effort to rejuvenate and expand our network," Pertamina president director Ari H. Sumarno said after the signing of the agreement with PDS on Tuesday.
Pertamina currently owns 26 ships and leases 104 others.
M. Firmansyah Arifin, director of DPS, said the two vessels were the fifth and the sixth Pertamina had ordered from DPS.
The two 6,500 Long Ton Dead Weight (LTDW) vessels, which will be delivered in 2011, will be used to distribute fuel throughout the country. (JP/rff)
