        "content": "<p>PT Pertamina Patra Niaga has assured the public that fuel oil (BBM)\nneeds in North Sumatra are being met through accelerated distribution\nefforts in collaboration with local government, security forces, Hiswana\nMigas, and all stakeholders. Independent Commissioner of PT Pertamina\nPatra Niaga, Prabu Revolusi, inspected the Command Centre, which serves\nas the distribution monitoring hub, and visited several petrol stations\nin Medan City to ensure queue conditions were normal and services were\nrunning effectively. \u201cThe most important thing for us is that the public\ncan once again obtain fuel easily and comfortably. Today\u2019s monitoring\nresults show that conditions on the ground are improving. Collaboration\nfrom all parties is key so that the distribution process can run\noptimally again,\u201d he said in a statement received in Jakarta on Friday.\nPrabu expressed appreciation for the hard work of all parties involved\nin accelerating the normalisation of fuel distribution. He also urged\nthe public to remain calm as fuel stocks in the North Sumatra region are\nsafe and sufficient. Prabu advised the public not to make excessive\npurchases and to use fuel wisely according to their needs, as well as to\naccess information only from Pertamina\u2019s official channels to avoid\npanic regarding stock and distribution conditions. \u201cWe also urge the\npublic to obtain information about stock and distribution conditions\nthrough Pertamina\u2019s official communication channels, because there are\nseveral old video clips being republished without context, which could\npotentially cause panic,\u201d he added. To maintain energy supply\nreliability, Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Sumbagut continues to\noptimise various operational measures, including 24-hour operation of\nthe Integrated Terminal Medan Group, the addition of tanker fleets\nthrough a spot charter scheme, strengthening the number of tanker crew\npersonnel, and optimising supplies from the Kisaran Fuel Terminal,\nSiantar Fuel Terminal, and Lhokseumawe Integrated Terminal. Currently,\noperations at the Integrated Terminal Medan Group are running normally,\nwhile fuel distribution to petrol stations in Medan City and surrounding\nareas is proceeding smoothly. Pertamina Patra Niaga has confirmed that\nfuel stocks in North Sumatra are in a safe condition and will continue\nintensive monitoring to ensure the community\u2019s energy needs are met.<\/p>",
