Oil and gas exploration projects in the District and Bojonegoro Blora, East Java, for example. According to Darby, the project in both regions is extremely interesting and challenging.

Therefore, she suggested that local governments and citizens are able to plan properly the use of oil funds are to build physical and social infrastructure that will endure long-lasting Cepu oil exceeded.
