Utilization of Information Technology for Fuel Distribution

The Downstream Oil and Gas Supervisory Agency (“BPH Migas”) has issued Regulation No. 06 of 2013 on The Use of Information Technology Systems for Fuel Distribution (“Regulation”).

The main purpose of the Regulation is to establish a system for the Government to be able to collect accurate data on and monitor the volume of fuel distributed at fueling stations that form part of the monitoring system. Additionally, the Regulation attempts to ensure that subsidized fuel is only purchased by consumers that are entitled to do so.
