Abstract

okan Block, with an oil reserve amount of 1.5 billion barrels and an average production capacity of 207,000 BOPD, is one of the backbones of oil production in Indonesia, and it also becomes the future of the country’s oil and gas industry. The Rokan Block has nearly 100 other smaller oil fields besides its giant fields known as Duri and Minas Fields.Unfortunately, even with its immense oil production potential, Rokan Block have been experiencing a decline in production. And for that cause, will be the main objective of this paper to overcome the challenges and optimize the Rokan Block oil production, as ongoing development of EOR and EOR technologies is essential for optimizing these mature fields, presenting a critical challenge for Pertamina even if the company retains talent from Chevron’s departure.
