Abstract

The old well drilled before 1970. Until now, there are still old wells that remain active for removing petroleum. The management of the old well is the authority of the central government. Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources regulates the management of wells by issuing Regulation of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Number 1 of 2008 on Guidelines of Petroleum Mining Concession to Old Wells. The Consideration of Regulation of Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Number 1 of 2008 on Guidelines of Petroleum Mining Business on Old Wells mandates to involve public participation in the process of petroleum mining at old wells. In fact, the ministerial regulation doesn’t regulate further in relation to society's participation. The community also conducts petroleum mining in old wells, but it is illegal because it does not refer to the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation Number 1 of 2008 on the Guidelines of Petroleum Mining Concession to Old Wells. Local Government has a strategic position to regulate community participation in petroleum mining in old wells. The Regional Government must have a Regional Regulation, which accommodates the interests of the community as a traditional miners. However, it contradicts the Regulation of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Number 1 of 2008 on the Guidelines of Petroleum Mining Concession to Old Wells. The problems of this article are (1) How is the position of the miner's community on petroleum mining in the old wells? (2) How to revitalize the authority of local governments on petroleum mining in old wells? In accordance with the issues raised, this research is a doctrinal research or is also referred to as normative research.
