Deskripsi

Pertamina is a state-owned oil and gas company (National Oil Company), established on December 10, 1957, under the name PT Pertamina. In 1961 the company changed its name to PN Permina and after the merger with PN Pertamina in 1968 it became PN Pertamina. With the enactment of Law 8 of 1971 the company became Pertamina. This name persisted until after Pertamina changed its legal status to PT Pertamina (Persero) on October 9, 2003. Pertamina’'s scope of business incorporates upstream and downstream sectors.

PT. Pertamina has been awarded two platinum awards in the CSR Award (ICA) 2017, and an Appreciation Award presented by Sindo News Media for conducting CSR in the same year. However, PT. Pertamina is also linked to controversial cases, such as the devastating oil spill in Balikpapan Bay in 2018 due to a leaked oil pipe. This is not a surprising news, as Pertamina allegedly experienced a leak from its oil pipes previously, in the year of 2004 and 2017.
