  • The company maintained reliable energy supply during peak demand periods like Ramadan and holidays, ensuring availability and affordability.
  • Significant infrastructure development, including new terminals and expanded fuel stations, supports national energy resilience and economic growth.

Pertamina Patra Niaga has reinforced its role as Indonesia's primary energy provider, ensuring reliable supply and enhancing accessibility across the archipelago throughout 2025. The state-owned company focused on reaching even the most remote, outermost, and underdeveloped (3T) regions, demonstrating a commitment to national energy security.

Corporate Secretary Roberth MV Dumatubun highlighted the company's dedication to serving the public, ensuring energy is available, accessible, affordable, acceptable, and sustainable. This was evident during critical periods such as the Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr, as well as Christmas and New Year holidays. Pertamina Patra Niaga maintained robust supplies of fuel, LPG, and aviation fuel, supported by 24-hour monitoring and inter-agency coordination to ensure smooth distribution during times of high public mobility.

The company also played a crucial role in disaster response, ensuring energy needs were met through integrated land, sea, and air distribution efforts in collaboration with government agencies, the military, police, and local authorities. This proactive approach bolsters national energy resilience under various circumstances.

Furthermore, Pertamina Patra Niaga expanded energy access through its "One Price Fuel" program, now operating in 588 locations nationwide. It also supports coastal communities by operating 421 Fishermen Fuel Stations (SPBU Nelayan) to boost the fisheries sector and local economies. The company's extensive infrastructure, including over 125 fuel terminals, thousands of gas stations, LPG terminals, aviation fuel depots, pipelines, and a vast fleet of transport vehicles, underpins its distribution capabilities, especially in challenging geographical areas. Development projects, such as the TBBM Maumere and TBBM Tanjung Batu, aim to further enhance operational reliability and supply capacity, particularly in Eastern Indonesia and Kalimantan.

Pertamina Patra Niaga carries out energy provision operations by prioritizing the 4A+1S principles: Availability, Accessibility, Affordability, Acceptability, and Sustainability.
