PT Kariangau Gapura Terminal Energi (KGTE) is a subsidiary of PT Interport Mandiri Utama Group under PT Indika Energy.

Operating in Fuel Storage and Terminal Services at the Interport Fuel Terminal (IFT) Kariangau, Balikpapan.

The Bonded Logistics Center of PT Kariangau Gapura Terminal Energi (KGTE) is committed to providing the most effective logistics solutions.

In this regard, through its Bonded Logistics Center facility, the company supports government programs for industrial fuel supply by collaborating with PT ExxonMobil Lubricants Indonesia as the Bonded Logistics Center Operator.

The government's industrial fuel supply program in Indonesia focuses on developing bioenergy-based biofuels to enhance energy security and reduce dependence on fossil fuel imports. Key initiatives include mandatory biodiesel blending (B30, B35, with targets up to B40 and beyond) into diesel, and developing biohydrocarbons like green-diesel and green-gasoline as direct replacements for fossil fuels.

PT Kariangau Gapura Terminal Energi continuously records, assesses, and mitigates risks to minimize operational impacts. We have implemented an environmental management system compliant with ISO 14001:2015 standards.

Maintaining the highest safety standards across operations, supported by all employees working safely and consistently. The 2024 PATRA NIBHAYA KARYA MADYA Oil & Gas Safety Award recognizes our ongoing efforts in implementing high HSE (Health, Safety, Environment) standards.


Role of the Bonded Logistics Center

•Tax and Import Duty Deferral:

Companies don't pay import duties, VAT, or luxury sales tax upfront. Payment occurs only when goods leave the center for usage, significantly improving cash flow.

• Logistics Cost Efficiency:

Deferred tax and duty payments reduce logistics costs, ultimately lowering raw material prices.

• Operational Flexibility & Cash Flow:

Companies can stockpile fuel for specific periods, flexibly manage supply according to market demand, and defer payments until goods are withdrawn.

• Accelerated Distribution & Production Processes:

Goods stored closer to oil/gas facilities enable faster distribution from the center to plants/refineries while maintaining smooth production flow.

• Enhanced Competitiveness:

Logistics efficiency gained through the center helps oil/gas companies compete globally with streamlined distribution.

• Simple Activity Facilitation:

The center allows basic operations like sorting, labeling, and fuel repackaging before further distribution.

• Supply Chain Support:

The center serves as a strategic partner for optimizing oil/gas supply chains and supporting smoother exploration/exploitation activities.
