History

In history before 1945, the first institution that handled mining in Dutch East Indies is Department of Mining (Dienst van den Mijnbouw)^[3] Following Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies in 1942, the department name was changed to Geological Survey Division (地質調査除, Chisitsu Chosajo),^[4] then to Mining and Geology Bureau (Djawatan Tambang dan Geologi) after Proclamation of Indonesian Independence which was formed on 11 September 1945 under the Ministry of Prosperity.^[5]

In year 1952 the bureau was under the Ministry of Industry. It was changed to the Mining Directorate which consisted of the Mining Service Center and the Geological Service Center. Following year 1957 the Ministry of Economy was split into the Ministry of Trade and the Ministry of Industry, the centers under the Mining Directorate were changed to the Mining and Geological Services.^[5]

The government established the Bureau of Oil and Gas which is under the Ministry of Basic Industry and Mining in 1961. The next year Geology and Mining Bureau was changed to the Geology Directorate and Mining Directorate. Following year 1963 Bureau of Oil and Gas was changed into Directorate of Oil and Gas which is under the authority of the Assistant Minister of Mining and State Mining Companies.^[5]

Two years after, in 1965, Department of Basic Industry / Mining is divided into three departments namely: Department of Basic Industry, Department of Mining and Department of Oil and Gas Affairs. In June 1965, Minister of Oil and Gas Affairs stipulates the establishment of the Oil and Gas Institution. In 1966 Department of Oil and Gas Affairs is merged into the Ministry of Mines and Oil and Gas which oversees the Department of Oil and Gas. Im Ampera Cabinet, Department of Oil and Gas and the Department of Mining are merged into the Department of Mining.^[5]
