PETRONAS Business Pain Point

Open
With healthy resources and wide available infrastructure; PETRONAS is focused on pursuing sustainable value driven
production growth in monetising Malaysia’s oil and gas resources and building niche competencies
Malaysia’s production has not peaked yet in comparison with UK and GOM. PETRONAS has set the aspiration to meet 2 MMboe/d by 2030 through the available resource
volume for monetization and its wide infrastructure.

Considering the status of the resources in Malaysia; PETRONAS has identified four key focus areas derived from
the identified challenges throughout full field lifecycle to effectively monetize and add value to the resources

CCUS & GHG related areas


(Electrification & Decarbonization, High CO2 field monetization, Carbon Capture Utilisation & Storage, Flare & Vent
reduction, Contaminants management)

Improved Recovery & Production/Sustainability


(Improved Hydrocarbon Recovery, Production attainability & sustainability, Hydrocarbon Recovery Technology,
Small/Stranded Fields monetization, Sand Management, Flow Assurance Production Enhancement )

Operational Efficiency, Automation & Digitalization


(Operational Excellence, Asset & Well Integrity & Innovative solutions i.e., Robotics, Field of the Future concepts,
Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Process Automation & Optimization, Remote Operation )

Liability Management & Decommissioning
