The energy transition has recently become a topic that has attracted the attention of all peoples in the world; this is due to a change in the mind-set of world citizens regarding the energy needs, which came from cleaner and more sustainable sources that come from renewable energy sources. Paris Agreement is a major commitment from all countries in the world in facing global climate change, which is getting worse. Currently fossil fuel is one of the factors that contributing for the worsening global climate conditions. However, global energy needs still rely heavily on fossil fuels. Countries in Europe are starting to think about steps towards cleaner energy. Regulations and initiatives from the private sector have supported these movements towards better energy. For example BP Net Zero Initiatives, rebranding of Total Energies. In contrast to the continents of America and Asia the use of fossil energy, still become main priority in the energy mix. When we are talk about energy demand in Indonesia we can see government plan on the energy mix still rely on fossil fuel. The world is changing, human as a ruler in this planet start to see the needs of earth conservation. Some of research told us about the deteriorating of environment in this planet. Modernization leads to use of huge amount of fossil fuel as the main source of energy in the last decade. This have an impact in the increase of planet temperature and leads to the changing in the global climate. Nowadays people think to find green energy sources, which has a very minimum damage to the environment. The movement will affect oil and gas company as the result of commitment to reduce the Carbon level in the air. Some research regarding the future consumption of fossil fuel are quite surprising that in the near future the usage of fossil fuel expected to extremely decline due to utilization of new and renewable energy source in daily life. As an impact, Oil price estimated to decrease drastically in the future because of decrease in fossil fuel demand, therefore this condition lead to some thoughts about going concern and the sustainability of the oil and gas company and also the impact to the job security for oil and gas upstream personnel. This research conduct to have a clear perspective from the upstream personnel especially in PT. Pertamina Hulu Indonesia in facing the new era of energy. The research explore and digging the readiness of the company and personnel from the point of view of upstream personnel. Concerning about energy transition in Indonesia there were some challenges such as policy uncertainty, market barriers, financing barriers, and low renewables manufacturing capacity have been contributing to the sluggish development of renewables in Indonesia. Company must reformulate company strategies to catch up with this transition period with the involvement of employee in the process. Employee must be equipped with the latest knowledge and information about energy transition, personnel mobility to the new and renewable affiliates will provide great experience to prepare the upstream employee to be ready for the Energy Transition Period.
