Abu Dhabi-headquartered Mubadala Petroleum has successfully started gas production from the Pegaga gas field in Block SK 320, offshore Malaysia. In 2014, the company reported that it had found substantial gas resources in the gas field.

The Pegaga gas field is designed for gas throughput of 550 million standard cubic feet of gas per day plus condensate. The produced gas will be evacuated through a new 4km, 38-inch subsea pipeline tying into an existing offshore gas network and subsequently to the onshore Petronas LNG Complex in Bintulu.
