Guaranteeing Fuel Availability, Pertamina Patra Niaga Reactivates Task Force Ahead Of The 2024 General Election

JAKARTA - Pertamina Patra Niaga is committed to ensuring adequate availability of energy ahead of the 2024 General Election. This is to anticipate a surge in demand during the five-year democratic party.

Pertamina Patra Niaga President Director Riva Siahaan said various anticipations had been prepared. Where, including re-activation of the Task Force Team or Task Force ahead of the 2024 General Election.

"The main task of the Election Task Force Team is to ensure and monitor all energy distribution activities, whether fuel, LPG, or Avtur goes well," Riva said quoting Antara.

He conveyed that the Task Force Team was activated from February 5 to February 18, 2024. The task force was activated earlier considering that in early February there was also the long holiday of Isra Mikraj and the Chinese New Year.

According to Riva, the democratic party for the General Election of the President and Vice President which will be held throughout the country on February 14 is one of the most important moments for the Indonesian nation in 2024.

"For Pertamina Patra Niaga, this moment is also a concern to ensure the reliability of supply and energy distribution for the community," said Riva.

Anticipating an increase in public consumption, Riva explained that Pertamina Patra Niaga's main standard is to ensure stock reliability. Stock security is in a safe condition, all fuel products are stretched by 17 to 62 days, LPG is over 19 days, and Avtur is 30 days.

Stock resilience in distribution agencies, namely gas stations, agents and LPG shortages as well as Aircraft Charging Depots (DPPU) also continues to be monitored in real time.

The next anticipation is to ensure that the distribution pattern is implemented properly. Pertamina Patra Niaga has a regular supply pattern, alternative, and emergency (RAE), so that when certain conditions occur, it already has a supply scheme to ensure that products are available to the community.

"Maintaining stock and monitoring this distribution is a real step for Pertamina Patra Niaga to ensure that energy is always available to distribution agencies. Under certain conditions, we have also made the most effective solution options, so that services for the community can always be maintained at the maximum level," Riva continued.

In maintaining the smooth distribution of energy at the moment of the election, Pertamina Patra Niaga does not work alone, but rather cooperates with various related parties such as BPH Migas, Transportation Service, Jasa Marga, Police, TNI, Telkom, Media, and other relevant agencies.

"Coordination is the key for every time we carry out the Task Force. The smooth distribution and service of our services to the community is inseparable from the support of various parties, we express our appreciation and gratitude to all strategic agencies and partners who support the task of Pertamina Patra Niaga to maintain energy supply throughout Indonesia," said Riva.
