Heaptalk, Jakarta — Pertamina Patra Niaga, a subsidiary of Pertamina responsible for commercial and trading activities, is under investigation by the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) for managing crude oil and refinery products between 2018 and 2023.

The company is suspected of blending refinery products with a Research Octane Number (RON) of 90 or lower to produce RON 92, causing losses estimated at Rp193.7 billion, approximately US$11.8 million (US$1 equal Rp16,440). AGO has named three internal suspects (02/26): Riva Siahaan, CEO of Pertamina Patra Niaga; Maya Kusmaya, Director of Central Marketing and Trading at Pertamina Patra Niaga; and Edward Corne, VP of Trading Operations at Pertamina Patra Niaga.

Three officials from Kilang Pertamina Internasional have also been named suspects: Yoki Firnandi, CEO; Sani Dinar Saifuddin, Director of Feedstock and Product Optimization; and Agus Purwono, VP of Feedstock Management. Additionally, three businessmen have been named suspects: MKAR as the Beneficial Owner of PT Navigator Khatulistiwa; DW as Commissioner of PT Navigator Khatulistiwa and Commissioner of PT Jenggala Maritim; and GRJ as Commissioner of PT Jenggala Maritim and CEO of PT Orbit Terminal Merak. The adulteration took place at the PT Orbit Terminal Merak terminal.

Running periodical tests on RON 92

Pertamina conveyed that the Group adheres to the ongoing investigation by the AGO. It confirms that during the investigation, the company’s operations in serving society’s fuel needs continue to run smoothly.

Simon Aloysius Mantiri, CEO of Pertamina, ensures that the company’s products are of good quality and meet the specifications set by the Directorate General of Oil and Gas at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM). These include Pertamax, a fuel product with a Research Octane Number (RON) of 92.

The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources periodically tests and strictly monitors Pertamina’s fuel products through the Oil and Gas Testing Center (Lemigas). “We ensure that Pertamina’s operations are running smoothly, and we continue to optimize services and maintain the quality of fuel products for the community,” said Simon.

As the parent company of multiple energy business lines, the state-owned enterprise strives to improve good corporate governance within the Group through more potent synergy with the AGO. Simon appreciates the trust and support of all parties towards Pertamina’s product quality. He urges the public to remain calm and not be provoked by unverifiable issues.
