Previously reported, Pertamina stated that the type of gasoline fuel sold in 2024 is only Pertamax which consists of three products. Later, Pertalite products will no longer be found at gas stations, or it will be removing soon.

Pertamina President Director, Nicke Widyawati explained that two years ago, Pertamina had started the Blue Sky program. For the first program, it has increased subsidized fuel RON 88 to RON 90.

"This we continue according to plan is the second phase of the Blue Sky Program. Where we increase the subsidy from RON 90 to RON 92, because KLHK regulations state that the octane number that can be sold in Indonesia is at least 91," Widyawati said in a working meeting with Commission VII of the House of Representatives on Wednesday.

Widyawati said, next year Pertamina will only sell three gasoline products, namely Pertamax Green 92, Pertamax Green 95 and Pertamax Turbo.
