Malaysia’s Pegaga field may start gas output in January

February 22, 2022

Dateline 2021-12-16, Argus Media:

Malaysia’s state-owned Petronas may be targeting a 20 January start to production at its Pegaga gas field offshore Sarawak, after the detection of high mercury levels at the field in September delayed the start to operations.

Petronas has set up an interim mercury unit (MRU) at the Pegaga field and will likely start commissioning the unit on 16 December, it told some term offtakers of the 30mn t/yr Bintulu plant early this week. This is in advance of earlier expectations that the MRU would be fixed in the middle of January. The Pegaga gas field supplies feedstock gas to the Bintulu liquefaction and export project.

Malaysia’s Petronas faces gas test in move to net zero

February 20, 2022

Dateline 2021-12-27, Argus Media:

Malaysia’s state-owned Petronas’ decision about how to move forward with its gas supplies after announcing a 2050 net-zero target has been complicated by current high spot LNG prices.

The firm’s net-zero plan includes hydrogen as a crucial step. It said blue hydrogen offers a way to monetise the 1.5 trillion m³ of shale gas reserves it owns as part of a joint venture in Canada. But current “spectacular” LNG prices are complicating the picture. “There’s this energy transition going on… but now LNG is looking beautiful. The price is spectacular,” Petronas’ hydrogen business head Adlan Ahmad said.


Petronas to raise supply of natural gas to Sarawak

February 18, 2022

Wasn’t this more like, PETRONAS needed someone to buy the gas, and found a patsy?

Dateline 2021-12-13, The Star:

Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) will raise the supply of natural gas to Sarawak by more than 250%, or up to 1,200 mmscf (million standard cubic feet) per day from the current 450 mmscf per day to support the implementation of projects under the Sarawak Gas Roadmap (SGR).

Chairman Tan Sri Mohd Bakke Salleh said the staggered increase in the natural gas supply would not only support Sarawak’s aspiration to attract investments from new, higher value-adding industries into the state but also provide the necessary impetus for further downstream exploration that would strengthen the state’s hydrocarbon resource base.

Do you think this will come back and bite Petronas later, like the O&G claims re: global warming and the plastics recycling debacle?

Dateline 2021-12-07, Malaysian Reserve:

PETROLIAM Nasional Bhd (Petronas) is looking into the possibility of deploying more low carbon solutions in the long term, with a project on carbon capture and storage (CCS) on the horizon.

Petronas chief sustainability officer Charlotte Wolff-Bye told The Malaysian Reserve (TMR) that CCS presents the firm with the potential to solve the technical challenge it is facing with high CO2 assets and projects.

Vote for IEM VP Candidate 2022 – Ir. Razak Yakob

January 31, 2022

Ir. Abdul Razak Yakob is running for a VP post at the Institution of Engineers Malaysia. I am fully behind him to be a VP and higher positions, and I hope that you have the same sentiments. If your pen (or computer screen) has only one pixel left, please tick his box.

Those of you who know him professionally in the oil & gas sphere should be assured that he is passionate about improving processes, encouraging and bringing up the next generation of engineers, and has integrity and trustworthiness with respect to the responsibilities he takes on.

In a non-working environment, he has initiated, directed and participated in new and innovative activities to revitalize the image of IEM. This would include the Chillex sessions, ABC4E and KISS. Behind the scenes, without fanfare, among his recent posts are Chairman of the Oil, Gas and Mining Technical Division, IEMGo and the 2021 Annual Dinner.

And if you have another pixel, I’m running for Council. Meh.
