This study uses a literature review method in the form of books, research results, journal articles, and other scientific sources. From the findings, it is concluded thatPertamina's knowledge management methods for competitive advantage are built on three pillars of knowledge management: people, processes, and technology. Pertamina focuses on the establishment of Communities of Practice (CoPs) in order to facilitate the sharing of individual expertise at the organizational level, transforming it into Pertamina's organizational knowledge assets. Pertamina's knowledge production process is based on the SECI model. Knowledge is obtained and transmitted to other persons (knowledge sharing) both online (via the KM portal) and offline, and is then applied by all Pertamina work units spread across Indonesia.
