Indonesia reports 148 LNG cargoes exported to Singapore
Bahlil Lahadalia said domestic gas needs would take priority but did not confirm whether LNG exports to Singapore would be reduced next year.
Indonesia has exported 148 cargoes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Singapore, alongside pipeline gas supplies of 409.5 Mmscfd, according to Bahlil Lahadalia, coordinating minister for downstreaming and energy transition and minister of energy and mineral resources.
In remarks at the State Palace reported on 30 October 2026, Bahlil said he believed Singapore resold some of those LNG shipments to other countries. He said some of the gas was consumed in Singapore, but did not specify how much he believed was re-exported.
Asked whether Indonesia would cut LNG exports to Singapore next year, Bahlil left the question open, saying the government would assess developments. He said domestic gas requirements, including LNG, would come first, while exports could continue if those needs were met.
Bahlil also said he did not know what Singapore Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan and Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto had discussed during their meeting in Hambalang, Bogor, West Java, because he had not attended.
