Sanggaran — Pertamina Patra Niaga said on 16 October 2026 that about 19 million litres of additional fuel had arrived at the Sanggaran Fuel Terminal and Integrated Terminal Manggis in Bali.

Why it matters: The programme increases Bali’s planned fuel supply, keeps both terminals operating around the clock and places 66 stations in Denpasar and Badung on 24-hour service.

The deliveries were part of a planned additional supply of about 57.9 million litres scheduled to arrive between 14 and 17 October, according to a written statement from Pertamina Patra Niaga Vice President of Corporate Communication Kitty Andhora reported by Detik Bali.

The planned volume comprises 44.9 million litres of Pertalite and 13 million litres of Pertamax. Pertamina said the remaining supply was scheduled to arrive in stages over the following two to three days.

The company said the additional fuel was intended to strengthen availability and support distribution to petrol stations across Bali amid queues at some stations. Pertamina also said both terminals were operating around the clock to speed up fuel receipt and distribution.

In Denpasar and Badung, 66 petrol stations were operating 24 hours a day, according to Pertamina information reported by Detik Bali. The company also deployed 108 tanker trucks supported by 465 tanker-truck crews.

The supply programme was reported by several established media outlets, including Detik Bali and Bali Post. The reported 19-million-litre arrival and the 57.9-million-litre programme were attributed to Pertamina Patra Niaga.
