From The Star: Exxon and Coca-Cola to invest in Malaysia


Dateline 2009-11-14:

SINGAPORE: Two American companies are expected to make substantial investments in the local beverage and gas sectors soon.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said petroleum firm ExxonMobil Corporation had expressed its intention to venture into high CO2 content gas extraction while beverage giant Coca-Cola wanted to build a new modern plant in Malaysia.

Hah, here’s a funny one. ExxonMobil will be extracting CO2. Coca-Cola products are carbonated, which means they require a CO2 source in the future. What is that upcoming CO2 extraction source, I wonder?

I predict the next Coca-Cola plant will be in Kertih. What say you? “Beverage and gas sectors’ indeed.

BTW, I’ll be in Miri next week. Any more eating place suggestions?

    using the 200MMscfd CO2 from Talisman BR-E membrane capacity will carbonised millions of can of coke.

    moreover, it gives us a nice tinge of hydrocarbon carcingens.

    Let’s see whether jabba dies of diabetes (from the sugar) or cancer (From the hydrocarbon). Now… Supersize Me!
