in providing service to consumers is by recording gas meters monthly.
Recording household gas meter done by PGAS Solution personnel on a
specified schedule monthly so there not be any drastic burst of usage from each
consumer. However, with the spread of Covid-19 recently there has been a couple
of adjustments and regulations made by PGN in order to maintain the level of
quality as well as consumer service quality during the Covid-19 emergency. PGN removed
recording gas meters by registrar during April- Mei 2020. With no manual meter
recording, PGN decided to implement independent meter recording for all
household and small consumers by sending a photo to a specified whatsapp number
or downloading an Independent Recording Meter app in PlayStore.
Entering June 2020, PGAS Solution from PGN has recorded meters
directly to household and small consumers. Officers has again visited door to
door for the sake of accuracy and appropriate use of good energy by consumers.
The meter reading of natural gas is carried out while following the Guidelines
of Covid-19 Prevention and Control by wearing standard Personal Protective
Equipment. Moreover, PGAS Solution also ensures officers are in good health
throughout the meter recording process.

Although officers are back checking the stand
meter directly, PGN also reminds consumers to use online services in recording
the meter independently through whatsapp or an application on PlayStore. Not
only recording, PGN consumers are also able make natural gas bill payment
online through ATM, Internet Banking, SMS Banking, E-Wallet apps such as Link
Aja, Gopay etc, and even E-Commerce apps such as Tokopedia, Bukalapak, and the
sort. Moreover, PGN consumers may also maximize PGN services through PGN
