Gas Distribution in Bali

The PT Pertamina continues to strengthen supply resistance and accelerate oil fuel distribution in Bali and various parts of Indonesia. That step is done through the addition of the fleet, the supply reinforcement, the optimization of distribution infrastructure, to the cross-market coordination of the interests of resolving lines at the gas station.

The recovery capacity was delivered during the visit of Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Bahlil Ladahlia with the governor of Bali I Wayan Koster and Main Director of Pertamina Simon Aloysius Mantiri at Fuel Terminal Sbotan, Bali, Monday (19 / 10).

Bahlil delivered, now the fuel supply conditions in Bali have been significantly recovered.

"Alhamdulillah, thank God, for Bali has been overcome. I asked Pertamina for a status upgrade that was 11 days into 15 days, and this afternoon was accomplished. So our stock in Bali is 15 days safe," Bahlil says in the written description, Tuesday (20 / 10 / 2026).

In order to accelerate the recovery process in the field, Pertamina increased the number of BBM transports from Java to Bali from the previous three ships to seven ships.

This effort is also fully supported by the fully operational optimization of the MNada Fuel Terminal and the Fuel Terminal Skulus to strengthen aspects of acceptance, storage, to the distribution of gas stations.

The main director of Pertamina Simon Aloysius Mantiri insists that the smooth distribution of energy is a top priority for the company to maintain public mobility and the rotation of the regional economy.

"We believe that energy is the pulse of the economy, especially in Bali Island, to help the tourism sector, UMKM, including other economic activity. Pertamina is committed to continuing providing energy distribution and distribution services and ensuring that the entire region can be properly served," reveal Simon.

It adds, Pertamina continues to evaluate throughout the supply chain from upstream to downstream, from supply, transport, storage, to distribution to society. The solid synergy between the entities inside Pertamina Group is constantly being pushed around to ensure national energy resistance remains well guarded.

Meanwhile, the governor of Bali I Wayan Koster gives high appreciation for Pertamina's rapid movements as well as the cross-agency collaboration involving the central government, local government, TNI, Polri, to the community.

"Since Saturday and Sunday, the supply to the gas station is generally running smoothly and the line is not much longer," said Koster.

The coster explains that a number of support policies such as working from home (work from home), online learning, as well as setting the BBM purchases using an even-faster scheme of operations in the gas station.

From the downstream operational side, Main Director Pertamina Patra Niaga Mars Ega Legowo Son claims that the supply reinforcement continues to genjot, including supplying additional cargo Pertamax and maximize distribution to Pertashop networks.

In addition to restoring the distribution line on Adults Island, Pertamina also continues to secure the gas supply at many other points in the homeland by adjusting logistics patterns to geographic and weather challenges.

For example, in some parts of Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Sumatra, the denunciation of the river path, due to weather factors, it has affected the shipping of a large fuel ship. To explore it, Pertamina has already diverted distribution patterns through the optimization of land paths as an alternative conduit path.

Bahlil made sure that the national fuel reserves were in a very secure and controlled position. Noted, Pertalite's reserve resistance was 16-18 days, while other gas types were even above 20 days.

"We have nothing to worry about nationwide. Now the distribution that we smooth out," firm Bahlil.

Closing up the recovery sequence, Simon also delivered a deep appreciation to Prov Bali, Forkopimda, Kodam Udayana, Bali police, and all the parties who are on board to escort operations in the field. The Pertamina also expressed an apology for the discomfort that people have had during the transition to service recovery.

"Thank you for the support and understanding of the whole of Bali.
