This commitment to sustainable energy sources underscores the company's vital role in contributing to the nation's power infrastructure and environmental goals.
# Powering Progress: An Insight into PT. Supreme Energy's Geothermal Endeavors
PT. Supreme Energy leads the charge in harnessing Sumatra's vast geothermal potential, actively developing robust power generation facilities. Through strategic partnerships and unwavering dedication, the company has established significant projects that promise long-term clean energy solutions.
## Driving Geothermal Development: PT. Supreme Energy Rantau Dedap (SERD)
Established in 2008, PT Supreme Energy Rantau Dedap (SERD) plays a crucial role in the geothermal sector. It holds the Geothermal Permit for the Rantau Dedap Geothermal Working Area (WKP), strategically located across the Regencies of Lahat, Muara Enim, and the City of Pagar Alam in South Sumatra.
Formation and Strategic Partnerships
Initially, Supreme Energy Rantau Dedap was formed as a powerful consortium, bringing together global expertise and financial strength. Its founding members included:
* PT Supreme Energy: An Indonesian leader in geothermal development.
* Marubeni: A prominent Japanese corporation with extensive experience in infrastructure projects.
* ENGIE: A global energy and services group based in France.
In December 2017, the consortium further strengthened its capabilities with the addition of Tohoku Electric Power Co. Inc., another esteemed Japanese power company, signaling robust international confidence in the project's potential.
Securing Development Capital
By late 2018, SERD successfully achieved financial close, a significant milestone that unlocked the necessary capital for the project's development. This achievement was cemented by signing comprehensive loan agreements with a prestigious consortium of international financial institutions, including:
* Asian Development Bank (ADB)
* Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC)
* Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI)
* Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC)
* Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG)
* Mizuho Bank
This robust financial backing underscores the project's viability and the trust placed in SERD's operational capabilities.
## Advancing Renewable Power: PT. Supreme Energy Muara Laboh (SEML)
Another key initiative under the Supreme Energy umbrella is PT Supreme Energy Muara Laboh (SEML), a collaborative venture dedicated to harnessing geothermal resources in West Sumatra.
Collaborative Ventures and Early Exploration
SEML operates as a joint venture, drawing on the collective strengths of:
* Supreme Energy
* ENGIE
* Sumitomo Corporation
Following a mandate from a 2008 Decree by the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), PT Supreme Energy was tasked with conducting a pre-feasibility study for the promising Liki Pinangawan Muaralaboh geothermal prospect. This assignment was successfully completed within the stipulated timeframe in 2009.
Comprehensive Reserve Assessment
The meticulously executed study proved highly successful, enabling the accurate estimation of potential reserves. It also precisely defined the concession areas for each prospect, based on a sophisticated conceptual model. This model was meticulously constructed through the integrated analysis of various critical data points:
* Geological data
* Geophysical data
* Geochemical data
* Insights from previous well drilling
This thorough assessment laid a solid foundation for the subsequent development phases of the Muara Laboh project.
