JAKARTA - PT Pertamina Patra Niaga sends LPG cylinders and fuel drums by sea vessel to Aceh as a commitment of the company to maintain energy availability for the community in disaster-affected areas.
Pertamina Patra Niaga Corporate Secretary Roberth MV Dumatubun said this delivery was part of Pertamina Patra Niaga's ongoing efforts to ensure energy services continued to run in the midst of emergency conditions.
"This delivery can help accelerate the recovery of community activities, especially in areas where access is still limited due to disasters," he said in a statement in Jakarta, quoted by Antara, Monday, December 22.
On December 20, 2025, the ship operated by PT Temas was dispatched to Lhokseumawe, Aceh, from Jakarta, carrying the aid.
The assistance sent consisted of one container of 3 kg LPG with 1,800 tubes, one container of 5.5 kg LPG with 1,300 tubes, and one container of 12 kg LPG with 600 tubes.
In addition to LPG cylinders, two skid tanks (LPG tanker trucks) with a capacity of 15 metric tons each were also sent in the same shipment to strengthen the supply of LPG in the affected areas.
Support also came from PT Pertamina Lubricants which also sent 720 red and white drums, 10 intermediate bulk containers (IBC), and 70 jeriken.
"The drums and other logistics will later be filled with fuel and used as a distribution solution in disaster areas that cannot be reached by tanker cars," said Roberth.
Furthermore, Roberth added that the synergy of the Pertamina Group was the key to handling emergency conditions.
"We continue to collaborate across entities in the Pertamina Group so that energy distribution can reach all affected areas safely and on time," he said.
Since December 13, 2025, Pertamina Lubricants has distributed a total of 740 red and white drums, 10 IBC units, and 80 jeriken, all of which are intended to facilitate the supply of fuel in disaster-affected areas in Aceh.
"Pertamina Patra Niaga will continue to coordinate with local governments, related authorities, and logistics partners to ensure the smooth distribution of energy as part of support for the recovery of communities and regional economies affected by disasters," said Roberth again.
