PT Pertamina (Persero) through Pertamina Patra Niaga confirmed no adjustment to fuel (BBM) prices at SPBU starting April 1, 2026, for both subsidized and non-subsidized types. The announcement came on March 31, 2026, amid rising global oil prices due to the Iran-US-Israel conflict. Pertamina urged the public to avoid panic buying and use fuel wisely.

JAKARTA — PT Pertamina (Persero) confirmed that fuel (BBM) prices at all SPBU remain unchanged starting April 1, 2026. This applies to subsidized fuels like Pertalite at Rp 10,000 per liter and Pertamina Biosolar at Rp 6,800 per liter, as well as non-subsidized like Pertamax at Rp 12,300 per liter. These prices match those in effect since March 1, 2026.

The official announcement was made via Instagram, the company website, and a written statement on Tuesday (March 31, 2026). “PT Pertamina (Persero) through Pertamina Patra Niaga confirms there is no adjustment to BBM prices at Pertamina SPBU from April 1, 2026. This policy follows government directives on BBM prices, both subsidized and non-subsidized,” Pertamina stated.

Corporate Secretary of Pertamina Patra Niaga, Roberth M.V. Dumatubun, outlined strategic efforts including coordination with the government, negotiations with suppliers, and optimization of refinery production and distribution. This aligns with President Prabowo Subianto's directive to prioritize public interests amid global oil price dynamics.

Pertamina advised the public to use energy wisely and avoid unverified information that could trigger panic buying. “We also urge the public to use energy wisely according to needs and not be influenced by information that could trigger panic buying,” Roberth said.

Prices vary slightly by region, for example Pertamax at Rp 12,300 in Java to Rp 12,900 in West Sumatra.
