Malaysia’s Petronas Gas to build new gas compressor station

February 9, 2022

Interesting, I would look to business intelligence, figure out who exactly is setting up business in Johor, and conclude that Singapore needs our gas.

Dateline 2021-12-08, The Business times:

Malaysia’s Petronas Gas on Wednesday said it has approved a final investment decision for the construction of a new gas compressor station in the southern state of Johor.

The station in Kluang, Johor, is to be completed in the first quarter of 2024 with an aim to increase the gas capacity of the Peninsular Gas Utilisation II gas pipeline network, the firm said in a bourse listing.


Petronas Gas boosted by robust regasification segment

December 29, 2013

Dateline 2013-11-02, Borneo Post:

Petronas Gas Bhd (Petronas Gas) saw a boost in its earnings driven by the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from an investment tax allowance granted for its liquefied natural gas  (LNG) regasification terminal in Melaka.

In addition, the company is expected to be the biggest beneficiary of rising gas demand as the additional gas volume will pass through its Peninsular Gas Utilisation (PGU) pipeline.

Analyst June Ng from HwangDBS Vickers Research Sdn Bhd (HwangDBS Research) said that the earnings boost from Melaka regasification plant was driven by higher gas transportation revenue and contribution.

Continuing my expansion of the above article, I thought I would comment on the map that is displayed in the article.

First thing I would like to point out is that the author says the green and blue line represents an oil transportation system.

At the moment, peninsular Malaysia has no oil transportation system. And there are no plans to have a consumer level transportation system (i.e. from refinery to distribution centre, to being piped into petrol stations and the like).

However, the blue line can be said to represent the Peninsular Gas Utilization (PGU) routing. To quote from the website:

“Through its listed subsidiary PETRONAS Gas Bhd, PETRONAS has since 1984 been implementing the three-phase Peninsular Gas Utilisation (PGU) project, an infrastructure development project to process and transmit natural gas fed from the fields offshore Terengganu to end-users in the power, industrial and commercial sectors. The entire PGU system now spans over 1,700km, comprising main gas transmission pipelines, supply pipelines and laterals.”

That covers the blue pill. Let’s chat about the green pill some other time.
