JAKARTA - The Downstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Agency (BPH Migas) ensures that the energy supply, namely fuel and LPG, is in a safe condition. Especially, ahead of the general election voting on February 14, 2024.

For this reason, Head of BPH Migas Erika Retnowati and Member of the BPH Migas Committee Iwan Prasetya Adhi made a working visit to the Bandung Padalarang Group Fuel Terminal (FT), Bandung, West Java, Friday, January 12, yesterday.

The working visit also monitors the readiness of energy supply in the face of Ramadan and Idul Fitri.

"We ensure that the available stock is quite safe and we also remind our friends at the fuel terminal that it must also be considered regarding the transport fleet that may have to be added, considering that this terminal operates 24 hours for fuel distribution," Erika explained, quoting Antara.

In addition to the distribution of fuel, Erika also visited the 3 kg LPG agent base to check the implementation of the purchase of 3 kg LPG using an identity card (KTP) which went smoothly and there were no obstacles in the sales/purchase process.

Meanwhile, Iwan Prasetya Adhi while monitoring at gas stations 34,405.05 asked for the use of the QR code used by the community to be guarded, so that there were no problems in the process of purchasing fuel.

"We see that the service at the gas station is smooth, there is no problem. However, there is still a scanner that looks a little difficult, so QR cannot be read in the EDC tool, so buyers are asked to wait up to 10 minutes," he continued.

Iwan also met people who were filling diesel oil fuel and appealed to maintain a good QR code because it could potentially be used by other people and avoid unwanted things.

He also hopes that PT Pertamina (Persero) will develop the application system further.

Meanwhile, Supervisor Vice President Government of the Management Program of PT Pertamina (Persero) Aris Mulya Azof expressed his appreciation for BPH Migas for visiting FT Bandung Group Padalarang and providing input in order to prepare fuel stocks for election activities as well as Ramadan and Eid Al-Fitr 2024.

Also present at the visit were Expert Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Mulyono, Director of Business Development of Hilir Migas Mustika Pertiwi, VP of PSO Management Pertamina Eko Ricky S, and Manager of Fuel Terminal Bandung Group Padalarang Novetra Senja Triama.
