BPH Migas Accelerates Fuel Distribution Recovery in Disaster-Affected Regions

Coordinated Response to Energy Needs

The Downstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Agency (BPH Migas) has taken swift action to address fuel distribution disruptions in regions affected by recent disasters. Following a visit by President Prabowo Subianto to the disaster zones in North Sumatra and directives from the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, BPH Migas has intensified coordination efforts to ensure energy availability for affected communities.

Restoration Efforts in Progress

BPH Migas, working closely with Pertamina Group, is focusing on restoring fuel supplies at gas stations across the affected areas in Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra. Fathul Nugroho, a member of BPH Migas Committee, emphasized the commitment to expedite the recovery process, particularly in Padang Sidempuan, North Sumatra, through supply rerouting and other logistical adjustments.

Maintaining Energy Security

The agency's proactive measures demonstrate its dedication to maintaining energy security during the crisis. By prioritizing the restoration of fuel distribution networks, BPH Migas is helping to mitigate the broader impact of the disasters on local communities and economies. The coordinated response between government agencies and state-owned enterprises like Pertamina underscores the importance of collaborative efforts in managing energy infrastructure during emergencies.
