Energy, Natural Resources & Mining

Practice Area

Indonesia's energy and natural resources sector is one of the most strategically significant and legally complex industries in the country. HWMA Law Firm advises mining companies, energy developers, project sponsors, and investors across the full lifecycle of projects, from exploration, concession acquisition, and environmental permitting through to production, offtake structuring, divestment, and decommissioning. Our practice reflects the government's current national priorities, including the downstream processing of mineral resources (hilirisasi), the energy transition to renewable sources, and the development of Indonesia's electric vehicle supply chain.

In the mining sector, we advise on mining business licenses (IUP, IUPK), mineral and coal regulations, coal contracts of work (PKP2B) restructuring, and the latest regulatory developments under the Mining Law and its amendments through the Omnibus Law. Our team has extensive experience coordinating multi-agency approvals involving the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), regional governments, and the Ministry of Environment, Ministry of Forestry. In the energy sector, we advise on power purchase agreements (PPAs), renewable energy regulations, geothermal project structures, oil and gas upstream regulatory matters, and gross split production sharing contracts.

With deep expertise across both conventional and emerging energy segments, HWMA is well-placed to support clients navigating Indonesia's evolving regulatory environment, from large-scale extractive projects to green energy investments, ensuring commercially sound and fully compliant outcomes.
