Indonesian state energy firm PT Pertamina does not expect to import any gas oil in 2016 following government rules to encourage the use of biodiesel, an official said. In addition to biodiesel subsidies, Indonesia’s government raised the minimum bio content in diesel fuel used for transport to 15 percent this year, up from 10 percent previously, and this will rise again in 2016 to 20 percent.
