Get Ready for Pertamax Price Predicted to Increase, Reach Rp 15,000 All

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – Price world oil soared due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The conflict has an impact on the declining world oil supply, so that demand is greater than supply, considering that the warring countries are one of the producers of this energy commodity.

Reported from HappySunday (27/3/2022), Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani gave a signal increase Fuel Oil (BBM) RON 92 Pertamax.

“Pertamax could be affected by the increase” price world oil because it is non-subsidized fuel and it is consumed by the upper class,” said Sri Mulyani.

However, Sri Mulyani said that there would be no other BBM, namely Pertalite price increase.

“Pertalite has not changed, this causes us to pay compensation later on Pertamina because they don’t go on,” he said.

“It’s still a process,” said Irto when contacted by Kompas.com, Sunday (27/3/2022).

Gadjah Mada University (UGM) economist Eddy Junarsin said that if the price of non-subsidized RON 92 fuel followed the world oil market price, it would be in the range of Rp 15,945 per liter.

“If we follow the current market price, the Pertamax (RON) 92 should be Rp 15,945,” said Eddy, quoted from Kompas.com.

If the government raises the price of Pertamax following world oil prices, there will be chaos in the community.

However, to avoid this, the government can provide subsidies for Pertamax, in order to make the atmosphere calmer.

With the subsidy, the increase in Pertamax will be reduced to a price range of Rp. 13,000 to Rp. 14,000 per liter.

“So the price is Rp. 13,000 or Rp. 14,000, the increase is not too extreme,” he said.
