Pertamina energy supply and distribution management

Overview

Pertamina has taken steps to manage energy supplies and distribution in Indonesia. In late July 2026, the company increased subsidized 3 kg LPG shipments by up to 34 percent in several South Sulawesi districts to address higher consumption driven by agricultural activity. During this period, Pertamina Drilling Services Indonesia also completed the KRG-042 oil well in South Sumatra, which recorded an initial production of 777 barrels of oil per day.

By mid-August 2026, Pertamina expanded its LPG supply increase to up to 65 percent across parts of South and West Sulawesi to maintain stock stability. To ensure subsidies reach intended recipients, the company began working to integrate National Identity Number (NIK) and biometric data verification at gas stations. While these measures aim to prevent ineligible use, officials noted that digital infrastructure and technological literacy in remote areas present implementation challenges.
