PTK & PIS-AP Strengthen Collaboration for Business Expansion

PT Pertamina Trans Kontinental (PTK) and PT Pertamina International Shipping Asia Pacific (PIS-AP) strengthened their collaboration for business expansion through the signing of a Management Service Contract (KJM) with PIS-AP’s Permanent Establishment (BUT). The contract was signed on November 18, 2025, by the Managing Director of PIS-AP at the Kontinental Building, PTK Head Office Jakarta. This milestone marks an important step in expanding marine management services within the Pertamina Group and reinforces Indonesia’s strategic position as a maritime logistics hub in the Asia Pacific region, supporting maritime business synergy focused on efficiency, fleet optimization, and the expansion of international business capacity.

In his remarks, PTK’s Director of Finance & Human Capital, Afan Aftory, emphasized the long-term collaboration between PTK and PIS-AP, which will strengthen the global competitiveness of the Pertamina Group. “The synergy between PTK and PIS Asia Pacific through this KJM is a strategic step to enhance efficiency, fleet readiness, and the competitiveness of Pertamina’s maritime services at the international level. PTK is committed to providing professional, safe, and globally standardized marine management to support Pertamina Group’s expansion in the Asia Pacific region,” he said.
Similarly, PIS-AP President Director, Aditya Setyawan, expressed his appreciation for PTK’s role in supporting the operational readiness of this new business unit. “This KJM serves as a crucial foundation for PIS-AP’s operational reliability. With PTK’s support, we are confident that marine management services can run more efficiently, safely, and competitively, strengthening Pertamina’s position as a global player in the shipping and energy logistics industry,” he added.
This strategic collaboration gains even more value when viewed alongside PTK’s operational achievements from January–October 2025. PTK recorded an 18% improvement in fleet utilization efficiency, completed 164 dockings and repairs with an on-time performance of 96%, and achieved a 23% reduction in vessel critical failures through the implementation of Risk-Based Maintenance. These results strengthen fleet reliability in supporting the national energy supply chain and significantly extend the vessels’ technical lifespan through measured and data-driven maintenance practices.

Additionally, PTK handled 128 international service movements during the same period, demonstrating the company’s capability to manage cross-border operations professionally alongside PIS and PIS-AP. Digital efficiency programs, material optimization, and technical competency enhancements delivered cost savings of up to 12.7%. These achievements reinforce PTK’s readiness to expand its ship management portfolio in the international market while ensuring competitive maritime services amid an increasingly dynamic industry landscape.

Through this strategic step, PTK and PIS-AP reaffirm their shared commitment to delivering sustainable, safe, efficient, and internationally standardized marine management services. This collaboration marks an important momentum in strengthening Pertamina Group’s contribution to the regional maritime ecosystem and paves the way for global business expansion supported by strong governance and excellent operational performance.
