Pertamina Group Wins 35 Awards at the 2026 PR Indonesia Awards

Pertamina Group won 35 communication awards from the 2026 Public Relations Indonesia Award (PRIA) event, which was held at the Embung Giwangan Cultural Park, Yogyakarta on Friday, February 13, 2026.

PR INDONESIA Founder and CEO Asmono Wikan revealed that PRIA is one of the largest public relations (PR) competitions in the country. Organized by PR Indonesia Magazine, the event attracted over 580 entries across 11 categories. He noted that each year, in addition to increasing the number of participants, the quality of the assessment and standards must also be improved to ensure that participants and institutions consistently excel.

"As the number of participants and the quality of the work increases, we continue to raise the assessment standards. Standards must be continually improved to ensure our quality is globally competitive. To those who have won, congratulations and keep moving forward. For those who haven't, don't give up; there's always an opportunity next year," he said.

In this event, PT Pertamina (Persero) received the Special Achievement award: Exemplary Public Relations Institution.

Pertamina's Vice President of Corporate Communication, Muhammad Baron, said that Pertamina's participation in the event was a proud moment and a barometer of the company's communication effectiveness to the public.

"We participated in the 2026 PRIA Awards, a prestigious event that serves as a barometer of corporate communication with the public. The Pertamina Group received approximately 35 awards. This is clear evidence of Pertamina's commitment to providing effective, transparent, credible, and sustainable communication," said Baron.

He added that this achievement is expected to serve as a learning experience and momentum for future improvement and innovation. One of the prestigious awards was won by Pertamina's internal media outlet, Energia, for its August edition, which earned a Gold award for its success in presenting a strong and relevant internal narrative that was accessible to external audiences.

"This is a concrete manifestation of the contribution of all subholdings, providing the best news narratives for all of us. Moving forward, we will further enhance our communication skills so that we can provide even better service to the public at this 2026 creative event," he added.

Meanwhile, Pertamina also won an award for its corporate engagement program, Pertamina Goes To Campus (PGTC). Now in its third year, this annual program consistently features new formats and innovations, serving as a competition and discussion agenda for students and campuses.

"The target must certainly be higher. With the Pertamina Group's large scale and numerous categories, we should be able to achieve even better awards," he concluded.
