JAKARTA - The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) through the Acting Director General of Oil and Gas at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Tri Winarno emphasized that gas supply remains safe amid the limited news of gas supply experienced by the industry.
Not only limited gas, industry players also complained about gas prices which were deemed not in accordance with the Certain Natural Gas Price (HGBT) scheme.
"(The gas supply is not safe?) It's not safe. It's safe," said Tri, who was met at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Building, Saturday, August 16 at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.
Met separately, Head of the Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities (SKK Migas) Djoko Siswanto dismissed reports of the supply of Ngas that dragged into the industry.

Previously, today the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources sent an invitation to the media to attend a press conference at the Heritage Building at 15.00 but it was canceled at 16.38.
Previously, PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk (PGAS) reported that currently there was a decrease in gas volume distributed in August 2025 by gas suppliers or Cooperation Contract Contractors (KKKS) in upstream oil and gas.
PGN Fajriyah Usman's Corporate Secretary said the decline in supply then had an impact on the temporary flow of gas to some PGN gas customers in the West Java region.
"This condition is due to unplanned operational maintenance (unplanned) in several gas suppliers as well as several additional gas supply plans that are still in progress," said Fajriyah, Thursday, August 14.
Fajriyah added that currently PGN has not yet received additional cargo of liquid natural gas or domestic Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) for the August 2025 period as another alternative source.
