As a global energy company, our commitment to sustainability is by emphasizing the environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects into the corporate strategy. Therefore, Pertamina sharpens its sustainability strategy which is formulated in the 10 Pertamina Sustainability Focuses, namely:

Pertamina has succeeded in reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by 6,38% in 2022 on a 2020 basis. Moving forward, Pertamina aims to further reduce GHG emissions comprehensively and is determined in reaching 30% by 2030. On top of that, New and Renewable Energy (NRE) development will be one of Pertamina’s key priorities to address the environmental issue and align ourselves to Nation’s Energy Mix by 2030.

Furthermore, Pertamina has its eyes set on the building upon its existing empowerment program, which will pave the way for people with disabilities to join the company through recruitment program. Pertamina also led the way in promoting gender equality in the workplace. Two of our six Board of Directors are female and more than 17% of our management level are woman leaders.
