This success has led Pertamina to receive 170 PROPER (Company Performance Rating Program in Environmental Management) awards in 2020 which include 16 Proper Gold, Green (64), and Blue (90). The assessment is held annually by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia on the management of environmental aspects by the company.
