BP IN INDONESIA

BP is one of the largest foreign investors in Indonesia. Through its heritage companies, BP has
over 45 years of operating history in the country, and we remain committed to Indonesia.

Activities are dominated by our exploration and production businesses, particularly the Tangguh
LNG plant. Beyond that, every BP main stream is also represented here from upstream, to
downstream and petrochemicals.

BP has a strong presence in Papua Barat where we adopted a fully integrated approach to
development and its impact on local communities.

Tangguh LNG is a unitized development of six gas fields located in the Wiriagar, Berau and
Muturi Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) in Bintuni Bay, Papua Barat.

The gas reserves were discovered in the mid-1990s by Atlantic Richfield Co. (ARCO). Tangguh
LNG is operated by BP Berau Ltd. (100% owned by BP). Other wholly-owned BP subsidiaries
in Tangguh LNG development are BP Muturi Holdings B.V., BP Wiriagar Ltd. and Wiriagar
Overseas Ltd. giving BP a 40.22% unitized participating interest in Tangguh LNG.

MI Berau B.V. (16.30%)

Nippon Oil Exploration (Berau) Ltd. (12.23%)

KG Berau Petroleum Ltd (8.56%)

KG Wiriagar Overseas Ltd. (1.44%)

Tangguh started production in 2009, just four years after its initial sanction by the Government
of Indonesia, and is operating at design capacity with work now ongoing to expand the plant
through the addition of a third train (Train 3).
