KM 42 Rest Area Gas Station In Karawang Sanctioned For Using Non-standard Devices

JAKARTA - PT Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional West Java (JBB) imposed sanctions at gas stations 34,41345 for using non-standard tools. The gas stations are located on the Jakarta 'Cikampek Rest Area Km 42 Toll Road, Wanasari, Telukjambe Barat, Karawang, West Java.

Area Manager Communication, Relations, & CSR Pertamina Patra Niaga West Java Regional Eko Kristiawan said the sanctions were imposed because his party found additional switching equipment in three of the total eight dispensers at the gas station.

"We took firm action by issuing the first and last warning letters and instructions to immediately replace the three dispensers with a new dispenser, which is ready to operate no later than two weeks from the issuance of a sanction letter from Pertamina Patra Niaga to gas stations," he quoted Antara as saying.

The problematic dispenser from the results of field checks by officers from the Directorate of Meteorology of the Ministry of Trade in the context of preparing the 2024 Ramadan & Eid Al-Fitr Task Force (RAFI) still has a Tera Metrology certificate, which is valid until February 13, 2025, after tera was carried out on February 13, 2024.

Eko added that the sanctions given to gas stations are in accordance with those stated in the agreement contract between Pertamina and gas stations.

In the attachment to contract sanctions for types of operational violations at point number 10 it is stated that gas stations can be given sanctions if they carry out engineering using tools or other means to change meters.

The sanctions given are the first and last warning letters, accompanied by temporary suspension of gas stations for at least one month and Pertamina can take over the management of gas stations, and subject to a fine of Rp25 per liter for all fuel products multiplied by monthly average turnover over the past three months.

"If the gas station cannot implement the provisions in the sanctions imposed by Pertamina, the gas station will be given even stricter sanctions," he said.

Eko said Pertamina guarantees the smooth distribution and availability of fuel stocks for all communities, especially in the Karawang area and its surroundings.
