Denpasar (ANTARA) \u2013 Pertamina Patra Niaga said fuel queues are\ngradually easing at several petrol stations in Bali, helped by an\nodd-even vehicle number system for purchasing Pertalite.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are seeing positive developments. Queues at several petrol\nstations are beginning to improve gradually,\u201d said Ahad Rahedi, Area\nManager for Communications, Relations and CSR at Pertamina Patra Niaga\u2019s\nEast Java, Bali and Nusa Tenggara (Jatimbalinus) regional office, in\nDenpasar on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The company is implementing the policy in collaboration with the Bali\nprovincial government and law enforcement agencies.<\/p>\n
Pertamina praised law enforcement, particularly the IX\/Udayana\nMilitary Command and the Bali Regional Police, for closely escorting\nfuel tanker trucks travelling to petrol stations.<\/p>\n
Since 15 October, a fuel delivery service at several petrol stations\nin Denpasar has sold Pertalite by the litre, up to a maximum of three\nlitres, to motorcyclists using jerry cans.<\/p>\n
Rahedi also confirmed that petrol stations have sufficient fuel\nstocks to meet Bali residents\u2019 energy needs.<\/p>\n
Pertamina aims to increase Pertalite stocks to a total of 48 million\nlitres, with deliveries running from 7 to 17 October 2026.<\/p>\n
The odd-even policy was previously introduced under a letter from the\nBali Governor, after which queues at petrol stations began to ease.<\/p>\n
The policy is in force at all petrol stations across Bali from 17\nOctober and is scheduled to run until 19 October 2026.<\/p>\n
\u201cTogether with the Bali provincial government, we continue to monitor\nqueues and assess the arrangements each day to gauge their effectiveness\nin managing queue lengths, vehicle waiting times and traffic flow around\npetrol stations,\u201d Ahad added.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/fuel-queues-in-bali-gradually-ease-with-odd-even-system-1792234253", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
