54 Years of Freeport Indonesia: For You Indonesia

07 April 2021

Let’s look back on the 54 years of journey that PT Freeport Indonesia has made.

April 7, 1967, marked a substantial milestone for PT Freeport Indonesia when the company and the Government of Indonesia  signed the first Contract of Work that officiated company’s operations in Papua.

PTFI celebrates its 54th anniversary as a proud company. To commemorate  another milestone, PTFI leaderships not only wish great success for the company. They also celebrate it in person with employees in Tembagapura.
