Malang — Pertamina Patra Niaga has awarded a contract to Indonesian construction firm Wijaya Karya (WIKA) to build a new jetty at the Integrated Terminal Manggis in Karangasem, Bali, in a project aimed at strengthening fuel supply for Bali and surrounding islands, according to a company disclosure and local media reports.
WIKA said the “Pembangunan Jetty 1 Baru di Integrated Terminal Manggis, Bali” project carries a contract value of about Rp475 billion and is targeted for completion in 2026. The new facility is intended to optimise vessel unloading capacity at Manggis and increase the reliability of fuel stock for Bali and nearby smaller islands.
The earlier draft referred to a 2027 completion target, but WIKA’s published information cites 2026 as the scheduled finishing date. No independent source in this verification round corroborates a 2027 timeline.
Project scope and role in fuel supply
According to WIKA, the scope of work covers construction of the new jetty structure, from land preparation through to operational readiness. The project is part of Pertamina Patra Niaga’s efforts to improve loading and unloading operations at Manggis, a key fuel logistics hub for Bali and nearby regions.
Integrated Terminal Manggis has recently played a central role in stabilising fuel supply on the island. In late August 2026, Pertamina boosted deliveries of Pertalite and Pertamax through Manggis and the Sanggaran fuel terminal in Denpasar to ease long queues at filling stations, according to a Jawa Pos Group report. Another local outlet reported that tankers carrying tens of millions of litres of fuel arrived at Manggis on 28 August 2026 to support this effort.
Area Manager Communication, Relations & CSR Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Jatimbalinus, Ahad Rahedi, stated that increased shipments via IT Manggis and FT Sanggaran were used to normalise fuel distribution in Bali. Those comments underscore the strategic role of Manggis as a supply point for Denpasar, Badung and other parts of the island.
Manggis terminal capacity and network
A technical planning document on the Manggis fuel transit terminal describes facilities including multiple jetties capable of serving tankers from around 3,500 deadweight tonnes (DWT) up to 35,000 DWT. Different berths are assigned to receiving fuel from large supply vessels and loading products for onward shipment to locations such as Ampenan, Badas and Bima.
Separate reports on Pertamina’s operations in Bali show that Manggis and Sanggaran function together as key nodes in the island’s fuel distribution network. During supply disruptions in 2026, Pertamina increased volumes channelled through these terminals and accelerated tanker arrivals to restore normal service, according to local media citing company statements.
In May 2024, Pertamina Patra Niaga also highlighted Manggis in the context of corporate social responsibility and community engagement, with its regional communication manager noting the terminal’s role in social and environmental programs recognised by an industry award. This further indicates its importance in the company’s broader operations.
Outstanding details
While WIKA has disclosed the contract value and the target completion year for the new jetty, it has not publicly detailed the jetty’s dimensions, design throughput or specific environmental and port-operational permit processes in the sources reviewed. Likewise, recent coverage of fuel supply issues in Bali focuses on distribution volumes and tanker arrivals, rather than technical specifications of the new infrastructure.
Given the available information, the verified elements are that Pertamina Patra Niaga has commissioned WIKA to build a new jetty at Integrated Terminal Manggis in Karangasem, Bali, with a contract value of around Rp475 billion and a targeted completion in 2026, to enhance fuel unloading capacity and stock resilience for Bali and nearby islands.
