Establishment of Indonesian National Work Competency Standards for Petroleum Blending Sector
Minister of Manpower Decree Number 254 of 2026 establishes the Indonesian National Work Competency Standards (SKKNI) for the Processing Industry Category, specifically the Main Group of Coal and Petroleum Refining Products Industry, focusing on the Petroleum Blending and Its Products and Derivatives sector. This decree was enacted on September 14, 2026, as part of the government's effort to develop workforce competency standards in the oil and gas processing industry sector, particularly in petroleum blending processes.
This SKKNI serves as an official reference for businesses, vocational education and training institutions, and professional certification bodies in designing curricula, training programs, and competency certification schemes for workers engaged in petroleum blending. The establishment of this standard is crucial to ensure the quality and competency of human resources in the petroleum processing industry, given the complexity and high risks inherent in petroleum processing and blending operations.
With this SKKNI in place, it is expected that national standardization of work competencies will occur, enhancing the competitiveness of Indonesian workers in the petroleum processing industry sector, both domestically and internationally. Additionally, this decree serves as the foundation for competency recognition through nationally recognized certification.
This decree is effective from the date of enactment and forms part of the labor regulatory framework governing competency standards across various strategic industry sectors in Indonesia, particularly the energy and petroleum processing sector which plays a vital role in the national economy.
