        "summary": "Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto has assured that Indonesia's supply of Pertalite fuel and biodiesel will remain secure through the end of the year, despite ongoing global conflicts. He noted that the country's average crude oil purchase price remains around USD 91 per barrel, and that Indonesia's energy supply routes are not dependent on the volatile Strait of Hormuz. The minister also highlighted that domestic electricity supply is stable due to the reliance on coal-fired power plants.",
        "content": "<p>Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto has\nclaimed that the supply of Pertalite and biodiesel in Indonesia is\nsecure until the end of the year, despite global conflicts affecting\nworld oil supply and prices. He explained that the purchase price for\nIndonesia is still averaging around USD 91 per barrel, a price he\nexpects to remain relatively stable through the end of the year. \u201cIt is\nrelatively stable until the end of the year, at least Pertalite and\nbiodiesel are safe,\u201d Airlangga said after attending the 2026 Indonesian\nIssuers Association (AEI) Members\u2019 Meeting in Jakarta, Tuesday (11\/8).\nThe ongoing wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, coupled with tensions\nin the Strait of Hormuz region, have created uncertainty in global oil\nprices. Airlangga noted that prices have even exceeded USD 110 per\nbarrel. \u201cWe always observe that if the oil price goes above 110 (USD per\nbarrel), there is usually a ceasefire,\u201d he said. Airlangga explained\nthat the government is still purchasing oil at an average price of\naround USD 91 per barrel, ensuring that Pertalite and biodiesel supplies\nare maintained until the end of the year. He added that national energy\nstability can thus be preserved amid global uncertainty. Beyond fuel,\nAirlangga stated that the national electricity supply is also relatively\nsecure, as most power plants rely on domestic coal. This dependence on\ncoal as a primary energy source means Indonesia has not experienced a\nsurge in electricity generation costs. He also noted that Indonesia\u2019s\noil supply comes via Singapore through the Strait of Malacca, avoiding\nreliance on shipping lanes through the Strait of Hormuz, a supply\nstructure that helps mitigate the impact of geopolitical turmoil.<\/p>",
