JAKARTA - As of May 2023, PT Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Sumbagut has taken action against 15 Gas Station Distributors (public gas station) for being proven to have committed a violation.
Susanto August Satria revealed that Pertamina did not hesitate to impose strict sanctions on the Gas Station Distribution Institute which was proven to have committed violations or misappropriation of fuel (Bakar Oil) of certain types of fuel (JBT) Bio Solar and Types of Special Fuel Assignment (JBKP) Pertalite.
Satria revealed that the sanctions given to gas stations vary according to the level of violations committed.
"The sanctions that can be given can be in the form of administrative sanctions, temporary suspension of supply for subsidized fuel to gas stations, to the most fatal, namely termination of business relations or we know PHU," he said in a statement received by VOI, Saturday, June 24.
The most severe sanctions are the sanction of temporarily stopping the subsidized fuel supply to the gas station. The regulations governing Subsidy Fuel have been contained in Presidential Regulation No. 191 of 2014 concerning Supply, Distribution and Retail Selling Prices of Oil Fuel, besides that it is also contained in the Decree of the Head of BPH Migas (Migas Downstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Agency) N0.4/P3JBT/BPH Migas/Kom/2020 concerning Controlling of the Distribution of Certain Types of Oil Fuel.
"Currently, the application of the Proper Subsidy QR Code has also been implemented as an effort by Pertamina in maintaining the distribution of fuel on target to the people according to its designation," continued Satria.
Satria added that currently the purchase of Bio Solar Subsidy Fuel in all parts of North Sumatra consisting of 5 provinces of Aceh, North Sumatra, West Sumatra, Riau, has all used a QR Code scheme at gas stations so that fraud will be detected more quickly.
"Therefore, use the QR Code for the purchase of BBM JBT Biosolar wisely, one QR Code for one license plate, if consumers misuse the QR Code by intending to hoard and resell subsidized fuel, it is a criminal act that law enforcement officials can take action against. Let's keep the Subsidy Fuel for those who are entitled, "concluded Satria.
