  • it is located in the middle of several KKKS blocks, precisely in the center of the Mahakam Delta which is adjacent to the main oil and gas oil fields in Indonesia, such as:
    • Oil and gas fields in Onshore: Badak Field, Santan, Handil 2, Samberah, Senipah, Pertamina Sanga-Sanga and Pertamina Samboja.
    • Oil and gas fields in swamp or swamp areas: Tambora Field, Tunu, and Saliki.
    • Offshore or oil and gas fields: Attaka, Yakin, Peciko, Sisi, Nubi, Lereng fields.

  • KLB sea access is through Muara Pegah, entering the active route of the Mahakam river to Samarinda.

  • Land access, namely:
    • South direction towards Handil 2, Mutiara, Senipah, and Balikpapan connected by Dondang bridge

Effective & Efficient Comparison


Comparison of Kutai Logistics Base owned by PT. Ranji Karya Sakti with several ports / logistics bases in East Kalimantan in supporting Effective & Efficient OFFSHORE activities:

  • Senipah & Handil is not recommended for offshore supply bases, due to drafts of only 3 meters resulting in operations always using intermediate barge for AHTS / PSV (double handling) vessels.

  • Tg. Batu / Eastkal , in addition to being more remote, is more expensive and there is a double handling. Administration of clearance in two outages in the KSOP (backboard & vague). Tg. Batu / Eastkal is not effective - efficient for supporting exploration - Operation - repair - maintenance for swamp & onshore areas around the Mahakam Delta.

    To achieve optimization in Offshore - Swamp - Onshore operations the "sharing facility" needs to be done, with the LWS 8 MTR draft, the RKS location is the most appropriate and integrated.

  • The distance of the Jetty RKS to Muara Pegah Post is only 12.5 Nm, with 5 knots only need 2.5 (loose sea).

  • Location of RKS before the lane Gas pipelines are underwater and not in densely populated areas like other ports in the Mahakam delta area.
