Dirut Pertamina Dicopot, Jabatan Wadirut Dihapus

Ada Kepentingan Kelompok, Rini: Presiden Tahu Pemberhentian Direksi Pertamina

Kabar pergantian Direktur Utama PT Pertamina  Dwi Soetjipto dan Wakil Direktur Utama Ahmad Bambang akhirnya terjawab. Keduanya diberhentikan dari jabatannya. Surat keputusan pencopotan keduanya diserahkan Menteri Badan Usaha Milik Negara Rini Soemarno, Jumat (3/2). Mengapa Dwi Soetjipto dan Ahmad Bambang diberhentikan? Komisaris Pertamina Gatot Trihargo mengatakan keduanya dicopot karena masalah kepemimpinan. "Salah satu hal yang dicermati Ibu Menteri dan jajaran komisaris adalah masalah leadership di Pertamina" ucapnya.

Gatot mengatakan Pertamina harus memiliki manajemen yang solid untuk menjalankan tanggung jawab perusahaan yang semakin besar. "Kami melihat internal harus ditingkatkan, sehingga perlu ada penyegaran," tuturnya. Pergantian pemimpin Pertamina ini menurut pengamat perminyakan terbilang kontroversial. Soalnya, baru 20 Oktober 2016 terjadi perubahan susunan kepemimpinan Pertamina. Saat itu, Menteri Rini menetapkan struktur baru direksi yang menyediakan kursi Wakil Direktur Utama ditempati Ahmad Bambang, pos ini bertugas memimpin dan mengkoordinasikan direktorat pemasaran, direktorat pengolahan, serta deputi direktur energi baru terbarukan. 

Wakil direktur utama juga berwenang mengambil keputusan impor bahan bakar minyak.  Struktur baru perusahaan "membagi kekuasaan' kepada direktur utama dan wakilnya. Deputi Bidang Energi, Logistik, dan Kawasan Pariwisata Kementerian Badan Usaha Milik Negara Edwin Hidayat Abdullah menyatakan struktur baru dibutuhkan untuk menggenjot kinerja perseroan. "Supaya sinergi, pemasaran dan lini produksi dalam satu rantai kendali," ujar Edwin, yang juga Komisaris Pertamina. Orang nomor dua di Pertamina itu bahkan berwenang menunjuk direktur lain untuk mengambil keputusan jika direktur utama dan wakilnya berhalangan. 

Dalam anggaran dasar sebelumnya kewenangan soal ini dipegang direktur utama. Belakangan, model kepemimpinan itu menuai  masalah. Sejumlah pejabat pemerintah menuturkan Pertamina seperti dipimpin "matahari kembar". Beberapa kebijakan perusahaan diputuskan secara sepihak oleh wakil direktur utama. "Misalnya impor solar 1,2 juta barel untuk Januari 2017 yang diputuskan pada Desember," seperti dikutip Tempo. Dalam susunan kepemimpinan Pertamina yang dibentuk pada 20 Oktober 2016, Direktur Utama Pertamina dijabat Dwi Soetjipto, sementara Direktur Pemasaran Ahmad Bambang digeser menjadi Wakil Direktur Utama Pertamina. 

Sejumlah sumber mengatakan Dwi sama sekali tidak dimintai pendapat dalam penyusunan struktur baru ini. Dalam mekanisme impor minyak, menurut beberapa pejabat perusahaan itu, direktur utama hanya menjadi semacam tukang stempel. Keputusan diambil Wakil direktur utama, yang membawahi direktur pengolahan dau direktur pemasaran. Menanggapi pencopotan Direktur Utama dan wakilnya, Komisaris Utama Pertamina Tanri Abeng menyatakan tugas direktur utama sementara diserahkan kepada Direktur Gas Pertamina Yenni Andayani. "Kami akan menunjuk direktur utama dalam waktu 30 hari," ujarnya.
