Abstract

One of the exciting challenges of a job implementation is controlling the work to follow what is planned in terms of cost, quality, and time. The Earned Value Method (EVM) is a way to monitor work effectively and efficiently. With EVM, several things can be observed, such as Budgeted Cost Work Performed (BCWP) or also called Earned Value (EV), Actual Cost Work Performed (ACWP) or Actual Cost (AC), Schedule Performance Index (SPI), Cost Performance Index (CPI) where everything is compared to the Budgeted Cost Work Schedule (BCWS) which is also known as the Planned Value (PV). In addition, EVM can also predict project duration by calculating Estimate at Completion (EAC), Estimate to complete (ETC), To Complete Performance Index (TCPI), and also Budget at Completion (BAC) values.

Keywords:      Budgeted Cost Work Schedule (BCWS), Budgeted Work Performed (BCWP), Actual Cost Work Performed (ACWP), Schedule Variance (SV), Cost Variance (CV), Schedule Performance Index (SPI), Cost Performance Index (CPI), Estimate at Completion (EAC), Estimate to Complete (ETC), To Complete Performance Index (TCPI), Budget at Completion (BAC)

Introduction

“The world’s energy needs continue to increase. According to the World Energy Agency (IEA) projections, by 2030, the world’s energy demand will increase by 45%, or an average increase of 1.6% per year. Based on the IEA’s projections for the period 2006-2030, the world’s energy demand mostly comes from non-OECD countries, which is 87%. Fossil fuels supply around 80% of the world’s energy needs. The position of coal also marked energy growth during this period as the second most important supplier of energy sources after oil.”[1]

“Pertamina, as a State-Owned Enterprise, has the task of carrying out activities from the Government to fulfill domestic energy needs. This Company is active in the upstream and downstream portions of the oil and gas business.”[3]. “The upstream sector includes exploration and production of oil, gas, and geothermal energy, while downstream activities include processing, marketing, trading, and shipping”.[4]. PT Kilang Pertamina Internasional as a Sub Holding is responsible for oil processing activities into oil products and petrochemical products, which are found in some refineries that are already operating as well as projects that are being carried out.”[5].

Based on the regulations stipulated by the Government about Standards and Quality (Specifications of Diesel Fuel Oil), the sulfur content in the Diesel products will be reduced gradually from the current 2500 ppm to 500 ppm in 2021 and 50 ppm in 2025, as shown in the following table:
