Pertamina Group Restructuring Review

The Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises is reviewing ways to improve efficiency across Pertamina Group, including the possible merger of one or two subsidiaries. The review follows an alleged corruption case involving the management of crude oil and refinery products, which authorities say caused state losses of Rp193.7 trillion.

Several executives at Pertamina subsidiaries have been named suspects, including executives from Pertamina Patra Niaga, Pertamina International Shipping, and Kilang Pertamina Internasional.

Minister Erick Thohir said the review would consider whether restructuring could prevent sales transactions between refineries and Patra Niaga. No merger decision has been announced. He said the ministry would respect the legal process and cooperate with the Attorney General’s Office.

Thohir also said the case had not disrupted Pertamina Group’s finances or services, which he described as being in better condition.
