BALI PETROL TYPES AND PRICES:
There are 2 kind of petrol that sold in Bali. Here are of them and its explanation:
PERTAMAX
This is the petrol you have to buy for your car rental. This is the most ideal type of petrol in Bali for a private use of car, like your car rental you are using. It is well known as RON 92 / Number 92. But in Bali we just say Pertamax. The price of Pertamax benzine is IDR 14,500 per litre or USD 1.
PERTALITE
Although this petrol type is also fine for your car rental but it is not advised. Some of the car does not good to use this kind of petrol. So better Pertamax for your car rental instead. The price of Pertalite benzine is IDR 10,000 per litre or USD 0,7.
These kind of petrol can be found on every gas station in Bali. If you drive along the by-pass road from Nusa Dua to Sanur, and from Sanur to Ubud you will find it there. The petrol gas station is very easy to find in Bali. Usually about 500 meters before the gas station resided, there will be a traffic sign telling the road users that in next 500 meters there will be a gas station. So any body who need to fill it up can stop by there.
The petrol station in Bali can be found also near the toll road of Bali. If you take a toll road to go to Bali airport or to Nusa Dua or to Sanur at the end of toll road area there is a gas station on each side. So whether you fill up petrol before or after entering the toll road or that would not be a problem. Of course there is also a petrol station near Bali airport as well. This nearest gas station of Bali airport is open for 24 hours.
WHERE TO FIND BALI AIRPORT NEAREST PETROL STATION?
There is a gas station for about less than one kilometer just after you go out from Bali airport, good place to fill up the fuel in full tank.
And the nearest petrol station from Bali airport can be found just 1 kilometer (0.7 mile). So after you pay a parking fee ticket in airport, just slowly drives and looks at the left side of the road. One kilometer after the airport you will see gas station there.
DO I GET FULL TANK OF PETROL FOR MY RENTAL CAR?
When you renting a car in Bali please be noted that usually the car rental company in Bali will give you about 2 – 3 bars of petrol, or about one third or one quarter of benzine. They will not give you full tank unless you request it in advance. And you will return it on your last day at the same level.
So for example if you booked a car rental for your next coming to Bali and you will landing already in the night (maybe at 11 PM), after you received your car rental at the airport and drive it to your booked hotel, you can first stop by at the nearest gas station of airport and fill the fuel up there. Do not worry as once again they are open for 24 hours. You can consult this with the car rental staff who pick you up at airport as well.
One last thing regarding the petrol of Bali, sometime on the side of the road there are many people sell the petrol in some kind of vodka bottle (yes the fill up that bottle with fuel and sell it there!) in front of small Warung. Please do not buy it there!
Many people sometime mix it with anything liquid except petrol, could be ordinary water, just to give them more advantage from the petrol they sell. If so it is obviously very dangerous, as your car could be damage with this kind of liquid. So always buy at the authorized Pertamina gas station owned by the government.
