Pekanbaru and the Rokan block, Riau: industry on the ground

Pekanbaru and the Rokan block, Riau: projects and investment
The previous operator drilled 16,023 wells across four blocks, including the Rokan block and the Coastal Plain Pekanbaru block, so a very dense network of wellheads, flowlines and facilities exists around the city.
Pekanbaru and the Rokan block, Riau: industry on the ground
Duri's thick crude is produced with steamflood enhanced oil recovery, introduced successfully by 1985, which lifted output to about 302 thousand barrels a day by 1995 and means hot steam systems run beside oil handling.
Pekanbaru and the Rokan block, Riau: people and language
Indonesian is the official language in Pekanbaru, while Minangkabau is widely used in markets and daily business, and Riau Malay and Javanese are also commonly spoken, so site teams are often multilingual.
The term · ATEX and IECEx
What “ATEX and IECEx” means for a smartphone
ATEX is the European legal framework for equipment used in explosive atmospheres (Directive 2014/34/EU). IECEx is the international certification scheme built on the IEC 60079 standards. Buyers outside Europe often ask for both: an IECEx certificate is the technical evidence most national regimes build on, while ATEX is the legal route into the European market.
For the IS-04Z1 both routes are in progress with TÜV in Germany and neither certificate has been issued. The marking target is II 2 G Ex ib IIC T4: equipment Group II (surface industry), Category 2 (Zone 1 gas), protection concept ib (intrinsic safety), gas group IIC and temperature class T4.
In Pekanbaru and the Rokan block, Riau. A reviewer on the Rokan block would expect certificate evidence matched to the marking, with its schedule of conditions. The IS-04Z1 evidence is in progress. A dual ATEX and IECEx route helps because maintenance and service contractors working with PT Pertamina Hulu Rokan often come from international oilfield backgrounds.

Questions · Pekanbaru Oil Field
Frequently asked questions
Can we buy an ATEX and IECEx mobile phone in Pekanbaru Oil Field today?
No. Nothing can be bought or taken into a classified area today: certification is in progress and launch is planned for Q4 2026. What is available now is the datasheet, the written certification schedule and evaluation units for safe-area use.
What does an ATEX and IECEx mobile phone in Pekanbaru Oil Field cost?
There is no list price yet. SAMS gives indicative pre-launch pricing in writing, against a stated quantity and site, and does not commit to a lead time before certification completes.
Is the IS-04Z1 ATEX and IECEx certified?
Not yet. Both routes are in progress with TÜV in Germany and no certificate has been issued. Any listing that says otherwise is wrong.
Which areas at Pekanbaru and the Rokan block, Riau would use it?
Likely candidates are gathering stations, wellheads and flowlines, oil treatment and storage, steam generation and power facilities. Which areas are classified, and to what zone, is set by the site operator's own area classification drawings.
Is intrinsically safe the same as explosion proof?
Not exactly. Explosion proof is a broad everyday term; intrinsic safety is one protection concept, which limits energy so ignition cannot occur. Flameproof (Ex d) is a different concept that contains an explosion. The IS-04Z1 is intrinsically safe by design.
Why does steamflood production matter for equipment used at Duri?
Steamflood means hot steam lines and wells operate close to oil and gas handling, so surface temperatures can be higher than at conventional wells. Handheld devices should respect the site's temperature limits and classification, so ask the operator for its rules on portable electronics.
Which company operates the large oil fields around Pekanbaru today?
The Rokan block, including the Minas and Duri fields, has been run by Pertamina Hulu Rokan since August 2021. Contractors and suppliers typically register through Pertamina's vendor processes and follow the site's own induction and permit rules, so confirm current requirements.
Who approves suppliers for the Rokan block?
Suppliers are normally approved by the operator and its contractors, following Pertamina group processes since the 2021 operator change. Ask PT Pertamina Hulu Rokan about current registration requirements before offering any equipment. Confirm with the site operator.
