General – CCS
Soil Investigation Work for Carbon Captured Storage (CCS) Project will be carried out via Keyfields Helm at Duyong field, Offshore Terengganu, from 15 Jan to 28 Feb 2025.
PETRONAS, Adnoc and Norwegian CCS technology and infrastructure specialist Storegga in August 2024 signed a Joint Study and Development Agreement (JSDA) to evaluate the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions storage capabilities of saline aquifers and the construction of CCS facilities in the Penyu basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia.
The JSDA is targeting at least 5 million tonnes per annum of CCS capacity by 2030. Its scope includes a CO2 shipping and logistics study, geophysical and geomechanical modelling, reservoir simulation, and containment research while exploring the application of advanced technologies, including AI, to enhance storage capacity.
The Duyong Field was discovered in July, 1970 and located approximately 220km off the coast of Terengganu, offshore Malaysia in Block PM6/12 at a water depth of 73.6 metres.
The first gas flowed in December 1984.
