English term or phrase: the acreage

The bureaucracy’s failure to bring about an increase in exploration was brought to a head earlier this year by delays over the development of Cepu, a major resource that is estimated to hold some 600 million barrels of oil and 1.7 trillion cubic feet of gas. Although Pertamina had reluctantly agreed with a government directive to develop THE ACREAGE jointly with ExxonMobil, activity had been suspended due to an unresolved dispute over which company would be the operator.

kawasan/wilayah

Explanation:
Saya tidak tahu mengapa "acreage" dipakai dalam kalimat ini. Definisinya acreage = luas dalam satuan acre. Melihat konteksnya "kawasan" lebih tepat daripada "luasan"
Kawasan sendiri saya rasa lebih cocok daripada wilayah.
