🇲🇾🌊🏗️ The Sepat field offshore Terengganu, Malaysia, has been producing oil through an early production system for over a decade, utilizing a MOPU and a FSO. Plans for the full-field development have evolved over the years, with the current concept involving three wellhead platforms connected to an FPSO via subsea pipelines. The gas production, estimated at 35 MMSCFD, will be reinjected or used for gas lift. Located in Block PM313 in 65 meters of water, the Sepat field has been producing since oil was first discovered there in 2003. 🛳️📊🔧 Petronas is progressing with the tender for a leased FPSO for its Kelidang gas project offshore Brunei Darussalam, which will handle up to 450 million cubic feet of gas per day and serve the Kelidang Cluster fields, and holding reserves of several trillion cubic feet of gas and associated liquids. HBA Future Energy and MISC are the main contenders for the project, with HBA partnering with E&P O&M Services (EPOMS) to submit their bid. 🌏🛢⚙️ Both Sepat and Kelidang represent significant offshore developments for Malaysia and Brunei, respectively, reflecting the strategic importance of advancing production capacities in the region. With evolving engineering concepts and tender processes, these projects highlight the dynamic nature of Southeast Asia’s offshore energy industry.

PETRONAS' Journey in GHG Management Innovation.   At PETRONAS, through Malaysia Petroleum Management (MPM), we are committed to managing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) through innovative solutions in Malaysia's upstream industry.   We aim to achieve zero routine venting and flaring by 2030. MPM steers Production Arrangement Contractors (PACs) to optimise fuel gas use and validate equipment efficiency annually.   Looking back at the Baram Delta Gas Gathering (BARDEGG-1) Project, which was Malaysia's largest gas conservation scheme, this pioneering initiative was designed to minimise wasteful flaring. Launched in the early '90s, the project, a collaboration between PETRONAS Carigali, MPM, Shell and OGSE companies, collected and compressed associated gas from five fields: Betty, Bokor, Baram, Baronia and West Lutong.   With an investment of around RM1.4 billion at the time, BARDEGG-1 repurposed flared gas for offshore operations and re-injected gas into the Baronia field for reservoir management. This project reached a significant milestone with its first gas export in 1993, underscoring our long-standing commitment towards energy security while pursuing deliberate efforts towards achieving lower carbon, lower emission operations.   Read more at https://lnkd.in/ghhYzkNG   #PETRONAS #PassionateAboutProgress

♻️🔱 [ The planning processes for developing and implementing new, innovative technologies like carbon capture and storage (#CCS) in Malaysia take place in quite a complex economic and technical environments. Such planning processes can easily become intangible and intricate due to their multi-level, multi-stakeholder and multi-issue characteristics. Gaining insight into current ongoing #PETRONAS / #MMHE Kasawari CCS Project; which its complexity and dynamics of these processes, can help future developers, decision makers and other key stakeholders involved in developing new CCS (or other innovative energy) projects ] ♻️⚕️ Malaysia's next significant new offshore gas project with an integrated carbon capture and storage solution is set for development by Petronas and #JXNippon Oil & Gas Exploration. The BIGST Cluster offshore Peninsular Malaysia has an estimated recoverable resource of 4 trillion cubic feet but has not been developed due to the high concentration of carbon dioxide CO2 in the gas. Petronas Carigali and JX Nippon Oil & Gas were last month awarded a production sharing contract for the project with 50:50 interests. Petronas said at the time that BIGST "is now primed for development and is the first high CO2 gas development in Peninsular Malaysia, incorporating carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology as part of its value offerings". The BIGST cluster was discovered in the 1970s, and comprises five undeveloped fields — Bujang, Inas, Guling, Sepat and Tujoh.
