Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - Pertamina continues to ensure the reliability of energy distribution facilities across Indonesia, including through a Management Walkthrough by the Pertamina Board of Commissioners at the Manggis Integrated Terminal (IT) in Karangasem, Bali, on Thursday, 28 May 2026.

This initiative aims to maintain the availability, distribution, facilities, and stability of energy supply, particularly in Bali and surrounding areas. The Manggis Integrated Terminal is the largest in Bali and plays a critical role as a hub terminal for other terminals in the Nusa Tenggara archipelago.

Spanning 17 hectares, the Integrated Terminal distributes fuel products including Pertalite, Pertamax, BioSolar, MFO (Marine Fuel Oil), and MDF (Marine Diesel Fuel). These products are supplied to 148 SPBU, 54 Pertashop outlets, 2 APMS (Premium and Diesel Oil Agents), 2 SPBUN (Fishermen’s SPBU), SPBU Kompak, and industrial sectors.

LPG distribution is handled to 16 SPPBE PSO (Public Service Obligation Bulk LPG Filling Stations), 4 SPPBE NPSO (Public Service Non-Obligation Bulk LPG Filling Stations), and 2 industrial facilities.

Pertamina’s Chairman and Independent Commissioner, Mochamad Iriawan, stated that the Manggis Integrated Terminal has a strategic role as a link in energy security. He emphasised the need to maintain operational reliability while adhering to HSSE (Health, Safety, Security, and Environment) standards.

‘HSSE is a license to operate; there is no compromise on worker safety, facility security, or environmental protection. Awareness regarding safety, emergency response, risk mitigation, and environmental protection must be heightened, and all parties must ensure operations are safe, responsive, and sustainable,’ he said, quoted on Monday, 1 June 2026.

He also stressed the importance of facility reliability, including the construction of Jetty 1, which is expected to enhance operational flexibility, loading and unloading reliability, accelerate energy distribution, reduce vessel queuing and delays, strengthen energy supply resilience, and improve overall operational efficiency of the Manggis Terminal.

Another aspect is strengthening emergency planning and preparedness, including coordination with maritime stakeholders, marine facility reliability, and regularly testing and reinforcing emergency response capabilities.

‘I commend the dedication of all officers in maintaining smooth operations, fostering a safety culture, operational discipline through synergy and ownership. The Manggis Terminal is expected to continuously improve operational reliability and become a safe, modern, world-class facility,’ he stressed.

Also present at the Management Walkthrough were Pertamina Independent Commissioners Condro Kirono and Raden Adjeng Sondaryani, Commissioners Nanik S. Deyang, Heru Pambudi, and Laode Sulaiman, who is also the Director General of Oil and Gas (Ditjen Migas).

Laode Sulaiman also commended Pertamina’s readiness, noting it was well-prepared in terms of stock and energy distribution.

‘Challenges in the Manggis Terminal’s operations, such as weather, have been effectively addressed by the officers there through various measures,’ he added.
