Intern – tangguh future

Tangguh Futures is a strategic development project designed to sustain the long-term supply of natural gas to the Tangguh LNG facilities in Papua Barat. It brings together a portfolio of offshore and onshore developments to support production from existing fields and maintain reliable LNG operations.

The project covers the integrated development of gas resources, wells, subsea and offshore facilities, pipelines, and supporting onshore infrastructure. Its delivery requires close coordination across subsurface, engineering, project management, commercial, regulatory, environmental, and social disciplines to develop a safe, competitive, and technically robust solution.

Beyond securing future energy supply, Tangguh Futures supports long-term value creation for bp, its partners, Indonesia, and local communities. The project therefore places strong emphasis on operational safety, cost efficiency, environmental and social responsibility, stakeholder engagement, and sustainable development throughout its planning and execution.
