Page 1 of 2 Pertamina claims Pertamax Sales Stable Despite Of ExpensiveJakarta - PT Pertamina (Persero) admitted selling Pertamax not increased when compared to last year because the price continues to climb following the trend of increasing oil prices. This was conveyed by the VP of Corporate Communications Pertamina, Mochammad Aaron when met at the Parliament Building, Senayan, Jakarta, on Monday night (5/23/2011). "We actually stable, so my usual stuff the price goes up," said Aaron. As is known, prices in Greater Jakarta pertamax currently reached USD 9250 per liter, or more expensive than other competitors Pertamina. He added that, if viewed from when prices rose to USD 8.500/liter Pertamax until now is not too much reduction in consumption. He also said non-subsidized fuel consumption is still stable when the price is in the middle of May, touching the Rp 9.250/liter from USD 9.050/liter. "The relatively stable because they are purchasing is the one who really need and loyal," he continued. But compared with last year's sales Pertamax, Aaron admitted this year's sales decline. "We expect increased actually, but we see the next policy, we do not know yet. It's still the first quarter. It is too premature when we decided to go down or what (price)," said Aaron. As is known, previously Djaelani Sutomo as Director of Marketing and Trading, Pertamina said that Pertamax consumption in the first quarter of 2011 only reached the realization of the number 280 thousand KL. The number is still far from the targets set for the first quarter alone amounted to 1.41 million KL. In response, Aaron said that first quarter targets are pegged Pertamina when the government is preparing a policy limiting the fuel subsidy which has not been realized until now. Thus, to address the possibility of increased consumption due to the limitation of fuel Pertamax Subsidy (Premium Cs) then the target of 1.41 million KL is carried by Pertamina. "Because it gini, it estimates the time limitation subsidy program that was planned for October (2010), then shifted to January, and moved again to April. Well, now we do not know when (not so). Well, when we arrange the CBP, we already know there will be restrictions on fuel subsidies so that the number is (target Pertamax consumption), our 'book' into our sales, "explained Aaron.
