Indonesia approves Madura Strait block plan

Indonesia upstream regulator SKKMigas last week said it had approved the plan to develop Madura Strait block operated by Husky CNOOC Madura (HCML).

HCML, a joint venture comprising China’s CNOOC, Canada’s Husky Energy, and Indonesia’s Samudra Energy, will spend about $88mn to develop the project, SKKMigas said.
