Abstract

BPH Migas as the Agency that has the authority to regulate the downstream oil and gas business in Indonesia, in its implementation there are obstacles both in terms of conducting supervision and the internal organizational structure of BPH Migas. Obstacles in carrying out supervision in the form of technical and resources. As well as problems in the form of position as an independent institution in supervising downstream oil and gas business. This study aims to determine the independence of BPH Migas in regulating the downstream oil and gas agency and the governance of the BPH Migas organizational structure in regulating Indonesia's downstream businesses. Through an empirical juridical approach, this empirical legal research concludes that, The independence of BPH Migas has not been implemented as mandated by Law Number 21 of 2011 as an independent body, as emphasized in the provisions of Article 2 paragraph (2) of Government Regulation Number 67 of 2002 which states that the regulatory agency is formed to regulate and supervise the supply and distribution of Oil and Gas Fuel through pipelines in Downstream Business Activities which is a government institution that carries out its functions, duties and authorities independently and is not influenced or separated from the influence and power of the government as well as other parties.
