The increase in consumption occurred in almost all types of fuel.
“Not only did fuel increase during the 2024 RAFI (Ramadhan and Eid al-Fitr) task force, 3 kg LPG was also increased by 5.8 percent of normal requirements,” said Riva.
For 3 kg LPG, Riva continued, the increase reached 10.4 percent on H-1 of Idul Fitri 1445 Hijriah compared to normal daily distribution.
“We hope that people’s needs for fuel and LPG can be met properly,” said Riva once more.

“We continue to monitor fuel and LPG consumption, because following the big day, tourist locations are usually invaded by people, so we have to make sure that fuel and LPG are safe,” said Irto.
Pertamina continues to urge the public to access the Pertamina Call Center at number 135 if they encounter problems related to fuel and LPG in the field.
Pertamina maintains energy supplies through the 2024 Ramadhan and Idul Fitri Task Force (Rafi Task Force) which is on duty from March 25 to April 21 2024.
The Rafi Task Force is tasked with controlling and monitoring the distribution of fuel, LPG and other energy. Pertamina wants to ensure that the supply and distribution of energy to the community during the Ramadhan and Eid al-Fitr periods runs safely and smoothly. (Z-6)
