BP expects Tangguh LNG domestic deliveries to rise to 89 cargoes in 2026 in Freight News 04/06/2026 British oil major BP expects to supply 89 cargoes from the Tangguh LNG project to Indonesia’s domestic market in 2026, up 4.7% year over year, Head of Country BP Indonesia James Tehubijuluw told lawmakers in a public hearing on June 3.
