Water Resources in Myanmar
Myanmar 24th most populous country in the world and the40th Largest Country by area.

Water Resources Possesses 12% of Asia’s freshwater Resources 16% in ASEAN Countries

Major Rivers
 Ayeyawady, Chindwin, Sittaung, Thanlwin

Hydropower 6% of Asia’s Hydropower Potential >100,000 MW

IEEJ：August 2018 © IEEJ2018

 The water basin characteristics in Myanmar are quite

variable due to thedifferences in physiographic features.
 The principal water courses flowing separately in Myanmar comprise four major rivers,
the Ayeyarwady, Sittaung, Thanlwin., Bago and their major tributaries.
 All rivers with the exception of the Thanlwin within Myanmar territory and can beconsidered nationally own water assets.
 Their drainage area is spread widely over the country, amounting some 876.73 million
acre-ft (1,082 km³) of water volume per annum from a drainage area of about 284,800
sq-miles (738,230 km²).

Tentative National Energy Policy of Myanmar

1. To minimize the environmental impacts, to include natural resources utilization plan for
future generations , to invite the local and foreign investments and to continuously carryout Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities in extraction and utilization of natural
resources in order to fulfill the nation’s energy needs.
2. To adopt prioritized plans on Energy Efficiency and Conservation
3. In defining the energy pricing in accordance with the market oriented economy, thenecessary laws and regulations shall be promulgated by observing the ASEAN andinternational energy pricing policy in order to maintain the stability of energy prices, toguarantee the economic befits for both energy producers and energy consumers, toensure affordable energy price for the people, to ensure affordable energy price for thepeople and to set up an energy fund.
4. To follow energy standards and specifications which are appropriate for the nation andwhich are also in compliance with ASEAN and international practices.
5. To promote private sector participation or privatization according to the State’s
economic policy for realizing the success of State’s Own Enterprises.

Tentative National Energy Policy of Myanmar
6. To lay down the short term and long term plans for not only renewable energy andhydropower projects but also feasible utilization of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) inthermal power plants to generate more electricity in order to meet the increased
demand which will accompany with the nation’s GDP growth.
7. To participate in regional energy trading (such as electric power, crude oil and naturalgas) by expanding the power grid and pipeline network to neighboring countries
including ASEAN nations.
8. To implement the following short term and long term plans in order to get power
generation stability by conserving the water catchment areas of hydropower dams andthe reservoirs, rehabilitating the aged plants and constructing the new ones in the grid
system and replacing the ineffective transmission lines, constructing newlines, expanding
the network system and building substations in the national grid system.
9. To prioritize the use of solar, wind, hydro, biomass and other renewable energy
resources in fulfilling the electricity demand of off-grid areas.
10. To establish Energy Database System and to draw and implement the energy supply
plans by surveying the nation’s energy demand annually.
11. To formulate a plan on civilian use of nuclear energy.
12. To set up the energy stockpiling plan for future energy security

Petroleum Downstream Sector

Petroleum Products Distributionfully privatized since 2010 and 2094
stations are permitted for distribution



12 fuel stations for government
sector

Storage - 6 licensesTransportation (Banker -15 )Aviation Turbine Fuel - 13

We are allowing more local private companies
to participate in petroleum products businesssince 2010. Until now, over 2000 stations are
permitted around the country not only the
local but also international investors.

LNG Business In Myanmar, LNG is one of the options for future gas
supply to fulfill the domestic needs.
 Currently, two existing out of 4 offshore projects arebeing declined.
 Accordingly, (3) foreign companies implemet (3) LNG

Projects, one is (1390) MW located in Ayeyarwady
Region, one is (1230) MW located in Tanintharyi Region,
one is (356) MW located in Yangon Region, totally (2976)
MW.
 All technical and commercial assistance are provided byWorld Bank.

Way Forward for Petroleum Sector

 To prospect on shore and offshore area.
 To supply sufficient gas for industries
 To upgrade old pipeline, plants and refineries
 To perform JV process for LNG Business To make trading, marketing and distribution of Petroleum
Products

 To make capacity development for the people

IEEJ：August 2018 © IEEJ2018

Current Major Difficulties

 Lack of exact laws and regulations for energy policy Low efficiency of old hydropower station and oil and gas
industry Lack of advanced technology for power sector
 Institutional Capacity Building Development and lack oftraining Do not get budget for new projects

47

IEEJ：August 2018 © IEEJ2018

Priority Subject and Reason

 I would like to study about “ENERGY POLICY”.

 Because Energy Policy is very important for our Ministry.
 We need to know energy database system, to draw and execute

the energy supply plans by surveying the nation’s energy demandannually.
 And then, we also need to know energy standards andspecifications which are appropriate for the nation and which arealso in compliance with ASEAN and international practices.

Conclusion

Lastly, I would like to express my sincerely thanks to President
and other Board Members from JICA.
Currently, 39 % of Household can access electricity but 61% notyet. There are many opportunities to invest in electricity andpetroleum sector for targeted plan 2030.
We would like to invite the investors with the mutual benefit.
We hope that our future collaboration will be crucial for both
Organization.
