PGN Opens Mobile CNG Workshop on Pantura Corridor Ahead of Eid Exodus
Jakarta — Ahead of the Eid exodus in 2026, PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk (PGN) has introduced a Mobile Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Workshop service in Cirebon, West Java, to ensure gas-fuelled vehicles (BBG) remain safe and in optimal condition during long-distance travel.
The programme represents a collaboration between PGN, operating as Pertamina’s Gas Subholding, alongside PT Gagas Energi Indonesia (PGN Gagas) and the Gas Community (Komogas). The service is scheduled to run from 9–16 March 2026 at the Cirebon CNG fuel station, targeting online transport drivers and regular transport operators using gas fuel.
PGN Corporate Secretary Fajriyah Usman stated that the Mobile Workshop is expected to support the readiness of gas-fuelled vehicles traversing the northern coastal route (Pantura), particularly in the Cirebon region, which serves as a primary corridor for the Eid exodus journey.
“Through this Mobile Workshop service, PGN wishes to ensure users of gas-fuelled vehicles travelling along the Pantura route, especially in the Cirebon region, can make their Eid journeys safer and more comfortably,” Fajriyah said in a statement on Wednesday (11 March 2026).
“We hope the technical inspections and education provided can help improve road safety whilst supporting smooth public mobility during the Eid exodus period.”
Throughout 2025, PGN’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) programme also completed the conversion of 200 petrol-fuelled vehicles to gas-fuelled vehicles across various Indonesian cities.
“Through this CNG Mobile Workshop programme, we not only wish to ensure the safety and readiness of gas-fuelled vehicles, but also to enhance public understanding of safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly gas energy usage,” Fajriyah added.
“This aligns with our commitment to continue promoting gas energy as a cleaner and more sustainable fuel alternative.”
With this support, the Mobile Workshop team can conduct technical inspections, verify CNG installation safety, and provide maintenance recommendations to vehicle users.
“With complete equipment and certified technicians, we hope CNG vehicles used by the public remain in prime condition, safe, and ready for long-distance travel, particularly during the Eid exodus period,” said Santiaji.
Komogas Chairman Andy Lala valued the collaboration between PGN and PGN Gagas as important for strengthening the safety and reliability of gas-fuelled vehicles in the community.
“We thank PGN and PGN Gagas for continuing to support gas-fuelled vehicle users,” Andy said.
“We hope this collaboration further strengthens joint efforts to improve the safety and reliability of gas-fuelled vehicles, whilst promoting wider adoption of gas energy as a more efficient and environmentally friendly fuel alternative for the public.”
