This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of corruption issues in the governance of crude oil at PT Pertamina (Persero), a state-owned enterprise with a central role in Indonesia’s energy sector. The issue has come to light following a series of irregularities in the procurement, marketing, and distribution of crude oil, involving both internal company actors and external parties. Using a normative legal approach and case study method, this article examines common corruption patterns such as price manipulation, volume inflation, and fraudulent tender arrangements. The data is drawn from court rulings, audit reports by the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) and the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), as well as expert interviews in the fields of law and energy. The findings reveal that corruption in crude oil governance is not merely an individual issue but reflects a systemic failure in risk management, operational transparency, and institutional accountability. The lack of integrated information systems across institutions and weak internal oversight further exacerbate the problem. This article proposes several strategic measures, including digitalization of the distribution process, internal policy reform within Pertamina, and the establishment of an independent supervisory body to strengthen sustainable integrity in crude oil governance.
