In this month, there has been a significant decrease in the prices of Pertamax Series and Dex Series. The new prices will be effective starting from October 1, 2024.

Heppy Wulansari, the Corporate Secretary of PT Pertamina Patra Niaga, stated that the adjustment of non-subsidized fuel prices is done periodically, following the average oil price trends that are published.

The reference used in evaluating these prices is the Mean of Platts Singapore (MOPS) or Argus, while also taking into account the exchange rate of the Indonesian Rupiah against the US Dollar.

"Evaluation and adjustment of non-subsidized fuel prices are done routinely," said Heppy in an official statement released on Tuesday, October 1, 2024. "Prices can remain the same, increase, or even decrease, depending on the global oil price trends and the exchange rate of the Rupiah. This October, all non-subsidized fuel prices from Pertamina experienced a decrease," she added.
