PT Pertamina Patra Niaga will lower domestic jet fuel (Avtur) prices by up to 10% effective June 1, 2026. This move is intended to bolster national air connectivity, maintain the competitiveness of the aviation industry, and ensure the sustainability of energy supply for air transportation.
The average national Avtur price in June 2026 will decrease by approximately 10% compared to May 2026. For instance, the price at Soekarno-Hatta Aviation Fuel Terminal (CGK) will drop from Rp24,580 to Rp22,190 per liter. Similarly, prices at Ngurah Rai (DPS) and Kualanamu (KNO) terminals will be adjusted downwards.
The Avtur price adjustment is carried out with reference to the formula set by the regulator, in this case the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and considers the development of global energy prices. When global energy prices move down, the adjustment will be reflected in the Avtur price according to the applicable mechanism.
These price adjustments are made monthly based on international publication prices, with Mean of Platts Singapore (MOPS) Kerosene/Jet serving as the primary regional benchmark. The decrease in global energy prices throughout May 2026 has directly influenced the Avtur prices for June.
Roberth MV. Dumatubun, Corporate Secretary of PT Pertamina Patra Niaga, stated that the price adjustment follows a transparent mechanism and global energy market dynamics. He emphasized that the formula is set by the regulator, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, and reflects global energy price developments. The company aims to balance commercial aspects with supply sustainability and service reliability for aviation users, expecting the more competitive prices to benefit domestic aviation, tourism, regional economic growth, and the wider community.
This price adjustment is expected to have a positive impact on domestic aviation activities, support the development of national tourism, improve inter-regional connectivity, and encourage regional economic growth. With more competitive prices, it is hoped that the aviation industry can continue to grow and provide broader benefits to the community.
