Pertamina Will Trial To Purchase Pertalite Using MyPertamina In 5 Provinces

JAKARTA - Pertamina Patra Niaga will conduct a trial of purchasing subsidized Pertalite and Solar using the MyPertamina application on June 1st.

Initial trials will be conducted in West Sumatra, South Kalimantan, North Sulawesi, West Java, and DI Yogyakarta.

President Director of Pertamina Patra Niaga, Alfian Nasution said, currently there are still consumers who are not entitled to consume Pertalite and Solar.

If it is not regulated, it is potential that the quota that has been set for one year will not be sufficient.

To ensure that the distribution mechanism is more targeted, Pertamina Patra Niaga has taken the initiative and innovated to conduct a trial of the distribution of Pertalite and Solar for entitled users who have registered on the MyPertamina website.

"People who feel they have the right to use Pertalite and Solar can register their data through this website, then wait to see if their vehicle and identity are confirmed as registered users. The MyPertamina system will help us match user data," Alfian said to reporters, Monday 27 June.

People don't need to worry if they don't have the MyPertamina application, because all registration is done on the MyPertamina website, namely, https://subsiditepat.mypertamina.id/.

Users who have registered their vehicle and identity will then receive a notification via email.

Registered users will get a special QR code that shows their data has been matched and can buy Pertalite and Solar subsidies.

He said the distribution of subsidized fuel oil (BBM) was one of the mandates given to Pertamina Patra Niaga, Sub Holding Commercial & Trading PT Pertamina (Persero) in order to meet affordable energy needs for the community.

"In distributing subsidized fuel, there are rules, both in terms of quotas or quantities as well as in terms of user segmentation. Currently, the subsidized Solar user segment has been regulated, while Pertalite's user segmentation is still too broad. As a business entity that sells Pertalite and Solar, we must obedient, right on target and right on quota in distributing government-subsidized fuel," he explained.
