VIVAnews - State oil company Pertamina will have a new director, Karen Agustiawan. She will be the first woman to helm Pertamina. Moreover, the new composition of Pertamina's board of directors is deemed the perfect combination to manage the oil company in the next five years.
"This is the perfect combination. There are experts on upstream sector as well as experts on finance," said State Minister of State-owned Enterprises (SOEs) Sofyan Djalil on Thursday, Feb 5.
Agustiawan was earlier known as Pertamina's Upstream Director. She will be inaugurated a president director replacing Ari H Soemarno by 3 pm today.
Other new Pertamina's officials that will be officiated this evening include Omar S Anwar (President Director of PT Rio Tinto), who will be appointed deputy president director; Sony Sumarsono (commissioner), Gita Wiryawan (commissioner) and Humayun Bouse (commissioner). The three newly-elected commissioner will add to previous board including Sutanto (president commissioner), Umar Said, Maizar Rahman and Muhammad Abduh.
In addition, Mining and Energy Reform Institute (Reforminer) stated that Karen Agustiawan will be the excellent person to bring Pertamina to go global.
Reforminer Institute Executive Director, Priagung Rahmanto, said that Agustiawan is the sound figure for Pertamina. Her experience of organizing upstream oil and gas businesses is suitable to his position because 80 percent of Pertamina's profits are supported by upstream businesses.
However, Rahmanto said that Pertamina will not improve much as long as the government does not issue a clear regulation for the state oil and gas company.
According to him, the government often takes contrasting measures in handling Pertamina's matters i.e., kerosene-to-gas conversion program.
The government forced Pertamina to distribute the subsidized 3-kg LPG without being given clear regulation on subsidies. In fact, Pertamiba is a profit-oriented company. "The government often interferes with Pertamina's businesses," he said.
As mentioned in Pertamina's website, the woman who was born in Bandung, West Java, 50 years ago, started her career as a commercial manager for consulting and project management of Halliburton Indonesia.
When being employed by Pertamina, the graduate of Physical Engineering of the Bandung Institute of Technology, was appointed an adviser of Pertamina Upstream's president director.
On 5 March 2008, State Ministry of State-owned Enterprises inaugurated Agustiawan as Pertamina's upstream director in replacement of Sukusen Soemarinda.
