JAKARTA PT Pertamina Patra Niaga established a strategic partnership with SKK Migas to be the main energy solution and decarbonization partner for the upstream oil and gas industry.

This commitment is realized by providing fuel, lubricant, oil base, petrochemicals, EOR (Enhanced Oil Recovery) and waste management through a distribution network that includes all KKKS.

President Director of PT Pertamina Patra Niaga Riva Siahaan emphasized that the signing of this Memorandum of Understanding is a form of the company's commitment to support the achievement of national targets in the upstream oil and gas sector and the transition to sustainable energy.

"Pertamina Patra Niaga is ready to provide a variety of superior products as well as decarbonization solutions needed by the upstream oil and gas industry. Our distribution network will cover all KKKS, both onshore and offshore, to ensure an efficient and reliable supply," said Riva as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, August 16.

Riva also emphasized the company's commitment to the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) with a minimum of 97 percent on fuel oil products (BBM).

This step reflects the company's dedication to supporting SKK Migas and the upstream oil and gas sector, as well as strengthening the national industry for Indonesia's energy independence.

"We believe this collaboration will have a positive effect on the national economy, strengthen the upstream oil and gas sector, and support the sustainable energy transition," Riva concluded.

In this activity, the Head of SKK Migas Dwi Soetjipto revealed the importance of strengthening an efficient and integrated supply chain to ensure that the upstream oil and gas strategic project runs on schedule and contributes significantly to national energy production.

Similarly, the Deputy for Business Support for SKK Migas, Rudi Satwiko, added that this memorandum of understanding also covers various aspects, including optimizing the use of domestic products, cooperation in the field of education, and research.

One of them is the MoU with Pertamina Patra Niaga, which aims to strengthen the supply chain ecosystem for upstream oil and gas projects in Indonesia.
