Pertamina Patra Niaga Expands Fuel Storage Capacity with Latest Infrastructure Upgrade

The facility’s design incorporates advanced filtration technology to maintain global standards of aviation fuel quality. It has also received operational clearance from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (KEMENHUB) in June 2024 and the Directorate General of Oil and Gas (KESDM) in July 2024. Equipped with safety features such as Fire Protection, Lightning Protection, and Cathodic Protection, the new infrastructure aligns with international standards.

This enhancement at Juanda Airport is part of Pertamina Patra Niaga’s broader strategy to modernize and streamline fuel distribution systems across key Indonesian airports. By investing in advanced infrastructure, Pertamina aims to bolster its operational capabilities and support the growing aviation sector, contributing to smoother and more reliable airport operations nationwide.

The new hydrant fuel system represents a significant leap forward in addressing the logistical challenges of fueling international flights. As airports continue to expand and the demand for efficient fuel supply solutions increases, Pertamina’s investment positions Juanda Airport as a leading example of modern airport fuel management in the region.

Looking ahead, Pertamina Patra Niaga plans to replicate this successful model at other major airports to further enhance its service network. This proactive approach underscores the company’s commitment to supporting Indonesia’s aviation industry and ensuring that its infrastructure meets both current and future demands. (Uki Ruknuddin)
