Integration for Enhanced Performance
The integration of the entire organization in Regional 1 and the Rokan Working Area (WK) signifies PHR’s commitment to achieving top performance to maintain national energy security. This restructuring involves merging organizations from Zone 1, Zone Rokan, and Zone 4 into the officially established Regional 1 organization in January 2025.

Collaborative Approach
The organizational integration was a collaborative effort involving various stakeholders such as the Special Task Force for Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities (SKK Migas), SHU, and Pertamina (Persero). This new structure marks the beginning of PHR’s journey towards becoming a more productive and efficient organization, emphasizing the importance of continuous improvement in facing new challenges.
Positive Impacts of Restructuring
Aside from enhancing organizational efficiency, this restructuring also aims to improve the management of upstream oil and gas assets from the northern to southern regions of Sumatra.
