JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Yuliot Tanjung revealed the reason for the increase in Indonesia's crude oil imports in June 2025. For information, based on data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) there was an increase in imports of crude oil in July 2025 by 34.92 percent.
Yuliot explained that this increase in imports was due to the large number of people switching or shifting using non-subsidized fuel oil (BBM).
"So for the increase, it's because there is also shifting," said Yuliot to the media crew at the Parliament Complex, Wednesday, September 3.
Yuliot continued, this is in line with PT Pertamina (Persero)'s policy which requires the use of a QR Code when filling subsidized fuel oil (BBM).
"This Pertamina requires using the Pertamina QR Code. That's while the community needs to register, then they may also not match their vehicle CC," he explained.
