Chevron seeks to further expand Darajat power plant capacity

Chevron Corp plans to expand its geothermal power plant project in Darajat in Indonesia's province of West Java by at least another 110 megawatts (MW), a company official was quoted by Reuters as saying Friday.

"We plan to expand the Darajat geothermal project to a fourth unit with capacity of at least 110 MW. We are negotiating with PLN over the price," the official, who declined to be identified, told Reuters.

Chevron is building a third phase of the geothermal power plant in Darajat with capacity of 110MW. The unit is expected to be operational by end-2006. (*)
