Roberto Lorato, MedcoEnergi’s CEO said,
“I am very pleased that notwithstanding the logistical and operational challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, MedcoEnergi completed the Meliwis Development safely, and within 4 years of the fields discovery. This is a testimony of MedcoEnergi’s execution capabilities and of our continued commitment towards all of our stakeholders”
