As a manifestation of this commitment, PLN IP Services President Director Hari Cahyono conducted a site visit on Wednesday (May 21) and directly observed the overhaul process at PLN Indonesia Power UBP Sintang Unit 2 in West Kalimantan. He accompanied PLN Indonesia Power Vice President of OMP III, Nugraha Septa Utama K, and Sintang Unit Manager, Bayu Putra Surya Perdana, to ensure the plant's continued safe, reliable, and efficient operation. This was achieved through overhaul work carried out by the PLN IP Services Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) team, as well as the readiness of PLN IP Services employees to maintain the plant's operational reliability.
This visit is part of PLN IP Services' commitment to ensuring the readiness and reliability of the power plant during the Eid al-Adha holiday, when the need for a reliable electricity supply is a crucial factor in supporting community activities, public services, and the smooth implementation of religious observances in various regions.
