Working on this mandate, we must ensure operational reliability, supply, and services to the community by paying attention to and maintaining aspects of HSSE in its implementation.
Jakarta (ANTARA) - PT Pertamina Patra Niaga is ready to run and operate as mandated to become one of energy giants in the Asia Pacific region, according to President Director of this commercial and trading sub-holding of state-owned oil and gas company PT Pertamina, Alfian Nasution.

Nasution informed through a written statement that ANTARA received here on Saturday that the end-state legal process had been completed on September 1, 2021.

With the completion, Nasution revealed that the company was preparing to operate to realize the vision of becoming one of the largest energy companies in the Asia Pacific, thereby supporting PT Pertamina's aspirations of being worth US$100 billion by 2024.

With the legal process having concluded, Nasution noted that Pertamina Patra Niaga, as a sub-holding of Pertamina, is in charge of managing fuel, LPG, jet fuel, and petrochemical products, both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-customer (B2C).

The president director noted that Pertamina Patra Niaga also managed the entire infrastructure of the Fuel Terminal, LPG Depot, and Aircraft Filling Depot (DPPU).

"Working on this mandate, we must ensure operational reliability, supply, and services to the community by paying attention to and maintaining aspects of HSSE in its implementation," he explained.

Nasution remarked that the company applied two strategies of consolidation and expansion to seize market opportunities for new products that had yet to be maximized.

The second strategy pertains to responding and expanding to regional and international markets, he said.

To achieve this, six post legal end-state programs or 6G are being continued: Go Retail, Go Digital, Go Customer, Go Petchem, Go Solution, and Go Expand.

"Hopefully, with the company's clear focus, Pertamina Patra Niaga would be able to ensure the availability of easy and affordable energy for the community," Nasution remarked.

The company must also be adaptive and prepare itself for the energy transition currently occurring to support net zero-emissions, he affirmed.

"In future, we will develop and strengthen our business by prioritizing environmentally friendly operations," he stated.

The president director also advised his team to continue to bolster solidity and optimism as well as foster cooperation to uphold the trust placed on it as a new sub-holding in conducting its duties.
