By Godang Sitompul

Downstream regulator BPH Migas has selected three firms to distribute subsidized oil fuels next year.

A total of ten companies submitted bidding documents but only three of them passed the administrative selection, according to the agency.

?There are only three companies which have passed the administrative selections following physical examination on the field (by BPH Migas). It seems that BPH Migas has not yet needed new players to distribute subsidized fuels next year,? BPH Migas? Secretary Djoko Siswanto told Petromindo.com.

He did not unveil the names of the three companies. But, the firm chosen three companies, namely state owned PT Pertamina (Persero), PT Aneka Kimia Raya, PT Surya Parna Niaga, to distribute the subsidized fuels for this year.
