Indonesia Approves Revised Abadi Masela Gas Development Plan - Indonesia has approved a revised development plan for the long-delayed Abadi Masela natural gas project with US$20 billion in investment targeting production to start in 2029, an energy ministry official said on Saturday. The project, in which Japanese oil and gas company Inpex (Tokyo) is the lead investor, has faced years of delay due to various changes.
