Hundreds of people mined traditional oil wells at Wonocolo village, Subdistrict Kedewan, Bojonegoro, Indonesia, about 100 km from Surabaya. In Kedewan area, there are 224 traditional oil wells with an average production capacity of 240, 000 liters per day. Each oil well, operated by 3-5 workers The price of fuel oil from traditional wells is cheaper than the market price, at 5, 000 rupiah for diesel and 5, 500 rupiah for kerosene. Processing crude oil production ("crude oil") from the old oil wells, done traditionally by burning. Earlier, crude oil extracted from oil wells put into the drum in piled on the ground. With a metal pipe, the burning of crude oil, channeled then accommodated into oil distillates and burned about three hours, and then the oil distillates exit through the pipe. The traditional oil miners were in the middle of the forest, hills dredge to dig wells. The depth of the oil wells from 70 meters to 500 meters into the ground. Old wells that have existed since the Dutch colonial period in Indonesia. But as long began drying up wells, the miners began to dig new wells. Increasing the number of wells is made increasingly denuded forests, and hills dredged to tread the well. Environment Agency (BLH) Government Bojonegoro, East Java, request police to criminalize miners of old oil wells in the district Kedewan that damage the environment in that area due to the opening of new land for siting wells. In addition, a lot of crude oil is wasted on the field of oil wells resulted in pollution of the environment, because it goes into Bengawan Solo River, the longest river in Java.
