The Arun gas field is a natural gas field located in the Aceh province on north Sumatra, Indonesia. It was discovered by Mobil Oil Corporation in 1971 and has been described as "the most lucrative LNG operation in the twentieth century."[1] The field began production of natural gas and condensates in 1975.
Production of natural gas at the Arun field contributed to a serious environmental conflict in which the secessionist Free Aceh Movement (GAM) fought for control of the Aceh province and associated gas revenues.[2] During the conflict, the Indonesian military committed hundreds of human rights abuses against Acehnese villagers.
The field closed due to lack of feed gas in 2014, and was converted into an LNG import terminal in 2015.[3]
