PT Pertamina Patra Niaga has implemented a periodic price adjustment for non-subsidised Fuel (BBM), effective from 1 August 2026. This adjustment follows government directives while considering public purchasing power and ensuring the availability of the national fuel supply.

Kitty Andhora, VP of Corporate Communication at Pertamina Patra Niaga, stated that the adjustment for non-subsidised fuel prices follows the average trend of global oil prices and takes into account the Rupiah exchange rate in accordance with applicable regulations.

“The adjustment of non-subsidised fuel prices is carried out following government provisions and directions, considering developments in global oil prices and the Rupiah exchange rate, while remaining mindful of public purchasing power. This step is also part of an effort to ensure that the national fuel supply remains guaranteed for the public,” Kitty said in a statement on Saturday (1/8/2026).

Following the adjustment, the prices for Pertamina’s non-subsidised fuel as of 1 August 2026 are as follows:

  • Pertamax Turbo DECREASED from Rp19,300/litre to Rp18,300/litre

  • Pertamax Green 95 DECREASED from Rp17,000/litre to Rp16,600/litre

  • Pertamax (RON 92) DECREASED from Rp16,250/litre to Rp15,950/litre

  • Pertamina Dex REMAINS at Rp21,150/litre

  • Dexlite REMAINS at Rp19,700/litre

These prices apply to regions with a Motor Vehicle Fuel Tax (PBBKB) of 5%, such as DKI Jakarta.

In addition to obtaining high-quality fuel at competitive prices, the public can also enjoy various promotions through the MyPertamina application, including cashback, more economical prices, and loyalty point bonuses for non-subsidised fuel transactions using partnered payment methods.

“We invite the public to take advantage of the various promotions available on the MyPertamina application to make non-subsidised fuel purchases even more economical and profitable. Pertamina Patra Niaga is also committed to continuously providing quality energy, maintaining supply reliability, and providing the best service to the community throughout Indonesia,” Kitty added.
