Kampung Muturi is a village in Teluk Bintuni Regency, West Papua, Indonesia. It is located on the southeastern coast of the Bird's Head Peninsula.[1] The Muturi River flows through the vicinity.
There are significant oil reserves in the area and Muturi is subject to drilling from ARCO and BG.[2] There is a deep-water oil terminal at Kampung Muturi, roughly three miles from the entrance to Sungi Muturi. It has a 18.3 metres (60 ft) long T-shaped pier which can serve vessels up to 30,000 tonnes.[3] In 2017 a Missile Detachment was established at Muturi with the objective of protecting state assets to conduct oil and gas mining operations in the area.[4]
Access to clean water has long been a problem in Muturi. Attempts to build wells in the area were a failure. In 2017 the 98th Manunggal Army launched a community plan to build a small water reservoir, planted underground, which can be used by the local church and school.[5]
