Energy is More Than Just a Commodity: Elnusa Subsidiary Launches Pena Petrofin Awards 2026
PT Elnusa Petrofin, a subsidiary of PT Elnusa Tbk (ELSA), is once again organising the Pena Petrofin Awards 2026 as a strategic step to strengthen collaboration with media professionals in building constructive narratives for the energy sector.
The event carries the theme “Connecting Your Energy”, which reflects the company’s transformation from a mere distributor to an integrated energy logistics firm.
Elnusa Petrofin emphasises that energy distribution is no longer viewed solely as an operational activity, but as part of an integrated supply chain that connects upstream production processes to sustainable downstream energy utilisation.
“Entering our 30th year, we see energy not just as a commodity, but as connectivity that drives life and the nation’s future,” stated Manager of Corporate Communication & Relations at Elnusa Petrofin, Putiarsa Bagus Wibowo, in a written statement quoted on Friday (1/5/2026).
According to him, in its second year, the Pena Petrofin Awards 2026 adopts a more comprehensive perspective in line with the company’s 30th anniversary milestone.
The focus of the event is no longer limited to energy distribution, but also highlights energy’s role as an enabler of national connectivity, from urban areas to remote, frontier, and outermost regions (3T), as well as the foundation for community social and economic activities.
The Pena Petrofin Awards is also designed as a platform for collaboration between corporations and the media to encourage journalistic works that are not only informative but also impactful, credible, and capable of strengthening public understanding of energy security issues, workplace safety (HSSE), and sustainability (ESG).
“In this second implementation of the Pena Petrofin Awards, we aim to strengthen collaboration with media professionals as strategic partners in delivering a complete and constructive energy narrative,” he said.
Furthermore, the theme “Connecting Your Energy” is implemented through four main pillars that represent the spectrum of energy’s role in life, namely:
Through this approach, Elnusa Petrofin encourages the creation of journalistic works that capture the complexity of the energy sector comprehensively, from operations to its impact on society.
The Pena Petrofin Awards 2026 is open to journalists from various media platforms. The publication period for entries runs from 27 April to 5 June 2026, followed by the judging process in June and the announcement of winners in early July 2026.
In line with the company’s 30-year journey, this event serves as a reflection that energy distribution is not just about operations, but part of an ecosystem that connects regions, drives the economy, and ensures sustainability.
Elnusa Petrofin reaffirms its commitment to continue building constructive relationships with the media while strengthening its role as a connector in the national energy ecosystem that is adaptive, collaborative, and future-oriented.
