KPK Tetapkan Eks Direktur Pertamina Suroso Jadi Tersangka Suap Innospec

Jakarta – Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK) resmi meningkatkan kasus suap perusahaan asal Inggris, Innospec ke pejabat Pertamina pada 2004-2005, ke level penyidikan. Mantan Direktur Pengolahan Pertamina, Suroso Atmo Martoyo ditetapkan sebagai tersangka.

“KPK meningkatkan status ke level penyidikan dan menetapkan mantan Direktur Pengolahan Pertamina, SAM jadi tersangka,” ujar Jubir KPK, Johan Budi di kantornya, Jl Rasuna Said, Jaksel, Selasa (29/11/2011).

Johan mengatakan, Suroso dijerat dengan pasal 12 huruf a dan pasal 11 Undang-undang 31 tahun 1999 tentang Tindak Pidana Korupsi. Johan juga menyatakan pemanggilan empat mantan Dirut Pertamina hari ini, untuk menjadi saksi bagi Suroso.

“Ya mereka diperiksa untuk tersangka,” ujarnya.

Berdasarkan putusan pengadilan Southwark Crown, Inggris, Innospec terbukti telah melakukan penyuapan terhadap mantan Dirjen Minyak dan Gas, Rahmat Sudibyo dan pejabat mantan Direktur Pengolahan Pertamina, Suroso Atmomartoyo.

Pengadilan Inggris memutuskan Innospec bersalah dan wajib membayar denda USD 12,7 juta. Dari persidangan itu juga terungkap, selama kurun waktu 14 Februari 2002 hingga 31 Desember 2006, Innospec membayar sebanyak USD 11,7 juta kepada agen-agen yang kemudian membayarkannya kepada staf Pertamina dan pejabat publik di Indonesia lainnya agar mendukung pembelian TEL.

Sementara dalam penyelidikan kasus Innospec di KPK, beberapa pihak juga sudah dikenai pencegahan agar tidak pergi meninggalkan Indonesia. Nama-nama yang dicegah bepergian ke luar negeri antara lain mantan Dirjen Migas Rachmat Sudibyo, mantan wakil Dirut Pertamina Mustiko Saleh, serta mantan Direktur Pengolahan Pertamina Suroso Atmomartoyo.

Sedangkan tiga nama lainnya yang dikenai pencegahan adalah dua eksekutif PT Sugih Interjaya Willy Sebastian dan Muhammad Syakir, serta seseorang bernama Herwanto Wibowo.

Kilas Balik Kasus – Dugaan Suap Pengadaan TEL; Pejabat Pertamina Membantah

Transparency International Indonesia dan Indonesia Corruption Watch mendesak Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi mengusut dugaan suap yang melibatkan mantan pejabat PT Pertamina dan mantan pejabat Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral.

Mantan pejabat itu diduga menerima suap jutaan dollar Amerika Serikat dalam pengadaan tetraethyl lead (TEL) produksi Innospec Limited dari Inggris pada tahun 2000-2006. TEL adalah zat aditif yang digunakan untuk meningkatkan nilai oktan pada bahan bakar minyak.

Desakan itu dikatakan Sekretaris Jenderal Transparency International Indonesia Teten Masduki di Jakarta, Jumat (26/3), didasarkan pada putusan Pengadilan Southwark Crown di Inggris pada 18 Maret 2010, serta putusan Pengadilan Distrik Columbia di AS pada 17 Maret 2010. Dalam putusan itu Innospec yang memasok TEL melalui perwakilannya di Indonesia, PT Soegih Interjaya (SI), terbukti bersalah telah menyuap bekas pejabat itu. Atas praktik suap itu, Innospec didenda 12,7 juta dollar AS.

Koordinator Divisi Monitoring dan Analisis Anggaran ICW Firdaus Ilyas mengungkapkan, garis besar dari putusan pengadilan di London tersebut, Innospec mengakui telah memberikan komisi sebesar 11,7 juta dollar AS kepada PT SI.

Komisi itu diberikan atas penjualan 28.390 ton TEL senilai 277 juta dollar AS dari Innospec ke Pertamina pada 2000-2006. Sekitar 2,8 juta dollar AS dari komisi itu terbukti digunakan untuk menyuap pejabat publik di Indonesia.

Pejabat yang disebut menerima suap dalam putusan itu adalah Suroso Atmomartoyo, mantan Direktur Pengolahan PT Pertamina, dan Rachmat Sudibyo, Direktur Jenderal Minyak dan Gas yang pada 2002 menjabat Ketua BP Migas.

Secara terpisah, Suroso Atmomartoyo membantah telah menerima suap dari Innospec untuk mempertahankan TEL sebagai campuran bahan bakar minyak. Pada tahun 2002 ia dipindahkan dari Cilacap ke Kantor Pusat PT Pertamina, tetapi tidak pada posisi direktur pengolahan. Ia baru diangkat sebagai Direktur Pengolahan PT Pertamina tahun 2004, dan saat menjabat itu ia memutuskan menghentikan penggunaan TEL pada bahan bakar minyak. (WHY/EVY)

Minerals with such copper) or smelted or refined by or
on behalf of the Company:

(i) In the case of copper so sold as concentrates, the
amount of the royalty to be paid in respect of the
payable copper content of the concentrates sold by
the Company during any calendar quarter shall be
an amount equal to the value of CR in the
following formula:

CR = [(P x ACP) – SRFS] x PCT

where,

P = the number of pounds of payable
copper contained in the concentrates
sold during any calendar quarter;

ACP = the Applicable Copper Price
determined as provided in (b) below;

SRFS = the smelting and refining charges,
and freight and other selling costs,

US $ 0.9000 per pound or less; PCT
= 1.50%

(2) if the Applicable Copper Price is
more than US $ 1.1000 per pound;
PCT = 3.50%

(3) if the Applicable Copper Price is
more than US $ 0.9000 per pound but
not more than US $ 1.1000 per
pound; a rate computed using the
following formula;
_____ _____
: ACP – 90 :
: 1.50 + _________ :
PCT = : :
: 10 :
:_____ _____:

where PCT = royalty rate in
percent, and

ACP = the
Applicable Copper
Price in US cents
per pound.

(ii) In the case of copper smelted or refined by or on
behalf of the Company, the royalty shall be based
on the payable copper content of the concentrates
smelted or refined by the Company during any
calendar quarter and shall be determined by the
foregoing formula with SRFS being the smelting and
refining charges, and freight and other selling
costs, which would have been incurred by the
Company in respect of such concentrates had such
concentrates been party (which, if the Company has
sold any copper concentrates during such calendar
quarter, shall be the average SRFS applicable
thereto); and

(iii) The applicable royalty rate with respect to
the Precious Metals which constitute Associated
Minerals with such copper shall be 1% of the sales
price, based on the Applicable Gold Price or the
Applicable Silver Price.

b. The following definitions are applicable to the
provisions of this Agreement with respect to Royalties:

(i) The term “Applicable Copper Price” shall mean,
with respect to the copper contained in the
concentrates sold by the Company during any
calendar quarter, a price equal to the official
London Metal Exchange cash seller’s price for
copper-higher grade as published by “Metals Week”
averaged over such calendar quarter.

(ii) The term “Applicable Gold Price” shall mean, with
respect to the gold contained as an Associated
Mineral in the concentrates sold by the Company
during any calendar quarter, a price equal to the
mean of the London bullion market spot morning
(“initial”) and afternoon (“final”) price for gold
in United States currency as published in “Metals
Week” averaged over such calendar quarter.

(iii) The term “Applicable Silver Price” shall
mean, with respect to the silver contained as an
Associated Mineral in the concentrates sold by the
Company during any calendar quarter, a price equal
to the London bullion brokers spot price in United
States currency as published in “Metals Week”
averaged over such calendar quarter.

(iv) The term “payable”, when used in connection with
the copper, gold and silver content of
concentrates sold by the Company, shall mean that
portion of such content for which a price is paid
to the Company.

(v) The term “pound” shall mean, with respect to
copper, sixteen ounces (avoirdupois).

(vi) The term “ounce” shall mean, with respect to gold
and silver, a troy ounce of 31.1035 grams.

(vii) The term “smelting and refining charges,
freight and other selling costs” shall mean with
respect to concentrates sold by the Company, the
aggregate amount of costs in respect of such
concentrates that are deductible from gross sales
in determining Net Sales.

c. The prices of copper, gold and silver, if quoted in
pounds sterling (or other foreign currency) rather than
in United States Dollars by “Metals Week” (or any other
publication substituted for “Metals Week” by mutual
agreement of the Company and the Department), shall be
converted daily during any calendar quarter into United
States Dollars by using the noon buying rate for
sterling (or other foreign currency) for cable
transfers as certified by the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York for customs purposes. The average price for
any such calendar quarter shall be calculated by
totalling the United States Dollar equivalents of the
daily prices (or daily mean prices, in the case of
gold) and dividing such total by the number of market
days in such quarter.

d. In the event that either the Company or the Department
believes that the market price of copper, gold or
silver price specified in this Article 13 is no longer
quotable or determinable from reliable published
sources, then, upon written notice by the Company or
the Department to the other, the Company and the
Department shall promptly consult with a view toward
determining a new published market price for copper,
gold or silver, as the case may be, such new published
market price to be the same, so far as practicable, as
that specified above. If the Company or the Department
shall give such notice, the Company shall continue to
pay royalties on the basis of a published market price
determined by the Company in good faith for the metal
concerned, in the case of all concentrates shipped
during the period commencing with the date of such
notice and ending with the date on which the Company
and the Department shall reach agreement with respect
to a new published market price for the metal
concerned.

e. The computation of the amount of the copper royalty
payment in respect of the concentrates sold by the
Company during a given calendar quarter shall be made
on the basis of the final dry weight, assay, and
smelting and refining charges, freight and other
selling costs determined in accordance with the
applicable sales, transportation, insurance and other
contracts as evidenced by final invoices, cargo and
freight bills, and other documents related to shipping
and handling. To the extent that the final dry weight,
assay, and smelting and refining charges, freight and
other selling costs have not been determined, such
computation shall be made on the basis of the
provisional dry weight, assay, or smelting and refining
charges, freight and other selling costs as determined
in accordance with the applicable sales,
transportation, insurance and other contracts as
evidenced by provisional invoices, freight bills and
other documents, subject to upward or downward
adjustment on the basis of the final dry weight, assay,
or smelting and refining charges, freight or other
selling costs. If the amount of the royalty payment
made in respect of any cargo of concentrates on the
basis of the provisional dry weight, assay, or smelting
and refining charges, freight or other selling costs is
more or less than the amount thereof computed on the
basis of the final dry weight, assay, or smelting and
refining charges, freight and other selling costs, the
amount of the excess or deficiency shall be subtracted
from or added to, as the case may be, the amount of the
royalty payment due on the quarterly payment date next
following the determination of such final dry weight,
assay or smelting and refining charges, freight or
other selling costs.

Each payment shall be accompanied by a certificate
signed by an executive director of the Company showing
in reasonable detail the computation of the amount of
the royalty payment due, including the amount of any
adjustment in royalty payments made in respect of any
prior quarter.

f. Concentrates shall be deemed to be sold when title
passes to the purchaser pursuant to the applicable
contract of sale.

g. In the ease of Precious Metals and other Minerals not
covered by the provisions of paragraph (a), the
applicable royalty rate shall be computed on the basis
of the market value of the contained Mineral refining
charges, and freight and other selling costs, with the
royalty rates (which may vary with the applicable
market prices) being determined by negotiation between
the Company and the Government, based on the general
economic principles reflected in the royalty rates
established in this paragraph for copper and Precious
Metals which are Associated Minerals; provided,
however, that in no event will such royalty rates be
less than 1% nor more than 3.5%. Such negotiation
shall be completed, with respect to any Mineral, prior
to the time the Company first begins construction of
any Mining facilities with respect to such Mineral as
permitted by this Agreement. The actual computation of
the royalties will be based on the provisions and
principles contained in the foregoing paragraphs (b)
through (f).

h. The Company shall pay any applicable Additional Royalty
in Respect of Minerals Exported as Unbeneficiated Ore
from Indonesia (“Additional Royalty”). Additional
Royalty shall be payable only to the extent that any
Mineral in the Company’s Products exported from
Indonesia shall be a Mineral for which value according
to general practise is paid to the Company by a buyer.
The rate of Additional Royalty to be paid shall be as
stipulated in Annex “G” attached hereto. The Additional
Royalty shall be increased or decreased in the same
proportion that the currant price shall be different
from those prices set out in Annex “G” for each Mineral
sold. Additional Royalty shall not be payable on:

(i) The export of Precious Metals in the form of
Associated Minerals, dore bullion bars or
concentrates or

(ii) Any Mineral exported in a form listed as exempt in
column 6 of Annex “G”.

The rules applicable to Additional Royalty shall be,
with necessary adjustment, those rules of computation
and payment of royalty set out above in this paragraph
2 (exclusive of the limitations on rate specified in
paragraph (g) above). The Government will (upon written
request from the Company) determine the stage of
Products exempt from Additional Royalty or any Mineral
for which no stage is specified in column 6 of Annex
“G”, such stage to be consistent with the stages
specified in column 6 of Annex “G” for similar
Minerals. For any Minerals or ore for which no
international price is given on or ore for which no
international price is given on Annex “G” the
Government will (upon written request from the Company)
determine such price based upon general economic
principles applicable to the determination of royalty
for copper and Precious Metals specified above in this
paragraph 2.

3. Incomes taxes with respect to the Taxable Income of the
Company.

The Company will pay corporate income tax (calculated in
accordance with Annex “F”) on income, meaning any increase

ICW: Dugaan Kerugian Negara Dari Royalti PT Freeport Rp 1,6 Triliun

Jakarta – Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) memperkirakan adanya kerugian negara yang disebabkan kurang bayar royalti PT Freeport Indonesia kepada pemerintah Indonesia sejak 2002 sampai 2010 yang nilainya mencapai US$ 176,884 juta atau Rp 1,591 triliun.

“Total pembayaran royalti PT Freeport berdasarkan laporan keuangan dari 2002-2010 adalah sebesar US$ 873,2 juta. Sementara berdasarkan hitungan royalti 2002-2010 adalah US$ 1,05 miliar. Sehingga diduga terjadi kekurangan bayar royalti tahun buku 2002-2010 yang berakibat pada dugaan kerugian negara senilai US$ 176,884 atau setara dengan Rp 1,591 triliun,” jelas peneliti ICW Firdaus Ilyas di kantor ICW, Jalan Kalibata Timur, Jakarta Selatan, Selasa (1/11/2011).

Perbedaan ini didapat Firdaus dari hasil perhitungan ulang ICW terhadap kewajaran pembayaran royalti Freeport tahun buku 2002-2010. Data yang digunakan adalah laporan keuangan Freeport dan sebagai data pembanding menggunakan data laporan keuangan PT Rio Tinto yang memiliki share 40% dalam joint ventures Freeport. ICW juga menggunakan data laporan pemerintah.

“Perhitungan pembayaran royalti itu mengacu kepada tarif dan standar perhitungan yang ada dalam kontrak karya PT Freeport,” lanjutnya.

Sekarang menurut data ICW, pembayaran royalti Freeport untuk tembaga cuma 1,5%-3,5%, sementara emas 1%, dan perak 1%. Padahal harusnya menurut PP 13 tahun 2000 tarif royalti tembaga 4%, Emas 3,75%, Perak 3,25%.

Firdaus mengatakan, karena royalti Freeport belum mengikuti aturan yang berlaku, sehingga negara berpotensi kehilangan US$ 738,138 juta atau Rp 6,643 triliun

“Royalti yang baru direalisasikan PT Freeport sejak 2002 sampai 2010 baru sekitar US$ 873,2 juta,” tegasnya.

ICW juga mendesak pemerintah agar melakukan renegoisasi kontrak karya Freeport dengan menekankan pada kewajiban divestasi dan penguasaan mayoritas (51%) oleh Indonesia. Menurutnya, renegosiasi kontrak karya antara Indonesia dengan Freeport sudah dilakukan sejak 2005 tapi selalu gagal.

“Tapi kan renegosiasi selalu gagal, dan pemerintah beralaskan kontraknya diundur. Jelas ini merugikan kita,” ungkapnya.

Selain itu temuan ICW ini juga bisa sebagai pesan agar pemerintah harus mengaudit dana royalti Freeport. “Paling tidak pemerintah lewat BPK harus melakukan audit ulang. Ini kita sudah dapat kecil dari Freeport malah dikecilin lagi,” tandasnya.

ICW: 10 Tahun, Ada US$79,1 Juta dari Freeport untuk Aparat Keamanan Indonesia

VIVAnews – Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) mencatat total dana keamanan dari PT Freeport Indonesia sejak tahun 2001 sampai 2010 mencapai US$79,1 juta.

“Jumlah dana keamanan yang dianggarkan kepada kepolisian berjumlah US$79,1 juta. Jumlah itu sejak tahun 2001-2010,” kata Peneliti ICW Firdaus Ilyas di kantor ICW, Kalibata, Jakarta Selatan. Selasa, 1 November 2011.

Menurut Firdaus data tersebut diambil dari laporan keuangan PT Freeport Indonesia dalam sepuluh tahun terakhir. Ia menilai dana tersebut tidak wajar karena tidak ada dasar hukumnya. Namun ia mengaku belum mengetahui persis bagaimana dana itu dialokasikan–apakah ke pribadi atau institusi.

“Intinya dana itu ilegal. Selain itu dana tersebut bisa dikatakan sebagai bentuk suap, karena pemberian uang itu tidak ada dasar hukumnya,” ujarnya. “Kami akan laporkan data ini dalam waktu dekat, kepada pihak Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK), untuk disidik,” lanjutnya.

Menanggapi lontaran itu, Kepala Divisi Humas Polri Irjen Pol. Saud Usman Nasution mengatakan,pihaknya masih melakukan klarifikasi. “Masalah uang yang US$14 juta kami kan belum tahu siapa yang terima, katanya diberikan kepada pemerintah, pemerintah yang mana juga kami nggak tahu,” kata dia kepada VIVAnews.

Polri, dia menambahkan, siap mengevaluasi kembali pola pengamanan selama ini.

Yang pertama kali dilakukan Polri, dia menjelaskan, adalah melakukan klarifikasi kepada Freeport. “Kami lihat data-datanya, ke mana saja, siapa saja dan juga kapan, juga untuk apa, sih. Kami lihat di koran dan media online juga dan juga sedang menunggu laporan mereka,” kata dia.

Setelah itu, baru akan dilihat apakah ada penyimpangan atau tidak. “Kalau ada penyimpangan oleh anggota, kami akan tindak tegas. Kami siap bertanggung jawab.”

Menurut Saud, Mabes Polri telah meminta data dari Freeport “tapi datanya belum datang”. Polda Papua juga dimintai data serupa.

Saud menolak berkomentar lebih lanjut soal “uang saku” yang dinyatakan Kapolri. “Sekarang ini kami coba klarifikasi dulu di lapangan, ada nggak menerima uang itu. Kalau ada, bagaimana ceritanya dan untuk apa? Baru kami lihat ada penyimpangan atau tidak,” kata dia. “Kan bukan saya yang menyatakan salah, sudah ada mekanisme hukumnya.”

Berikut rincian “dana keamanan” Freeport yang dilansir ICW:

2001: US$4,7 juta
2002: US$5,6 juta
2003: US$5,9 juta
2004: US$6,9 juta
2005: US$6,0 juta
2006: US$9,0 juta
