Looking ahead, the company is aligning its expertise with energy transition opportunities, focusing on two areas – decommissioning and carbon capture and under-ground storage (CCUS).

“We know we’ve done a good job in decommissioning and now we’re set to grow,” Anuar says.

He points out that its operations were profitable, despite the limited working capital that was hindering growth. Evidently, its free cash flow in the first half ended July 31, 2024 (1H25) stood at RM 275 mil, while for FY24 the group reported a free cash flow of close to RM 700 mil.

“We’ve moved from RM 400 mil to RM 500 mil net cash to about RM 1.7 bil, primarily through self-generation,” Anuar notes.

When asked how the company will finance its debt repayments, Anuar highlight the involvement of a white knight investor.

While the white knight has yet to publicly emerge, he says their commitment letter has been filed through the court and the CDRC.

UK supermajor Shell has hailed the Jerun gas field offshore Malaysia that came on stream earlier this week as a “highly attractive investment”.

Shell has a 30% interest in SapuraOMV Upstream’s Block SK 408 offshore Sarawak, East Malaysia, that hosts Jerun. The partners in 2021 took the final investment decision on Jerun, where the central production platform is designed to produce up to 550 million cubic feet per day of gas, with condensate output of 15,000 barrels per day of condensate.

Gas from Jerun is exported via a new 80-kilometre pipeline to the E11RB production hub for onward delivery to customers in Bintulu, Sarawak, including the Petronas LNG Complex.

“Jerun was a highly attractive investment for Shell, building on our interests in this important region off the coast of Sarawak, offshore Malaysia, where Shell operates the Timi platform and has the Rosmari-Marjoram project under construction,” said Zoe Yujnovich, Shell’s integrated gas and upstream director.

The Jerun co-venturers are operator SapuraOMV Upstream with a 40% stake, Sarawak Shell and Malaysia’s national E&P player Petronas Carigali on 30%.


“Gas is an important fuel for Malaysia and the world, providing a secure form of energy for heating, cooling and power generation. We are delighted the venture has reached this milestone,” added Yujnovich.

Energy giant Shell on Friday said it remains committed to supporting Malaysia’s economic progress and energy transition efforts with “competitive and resilient investments”.

On Shell’s Capital Market Day in 2023, the company committed to deliver upstream and integrated gas projects coming on stream between 2023 to 2025, with total peak production of greater than 500,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.

Malaysia’s Bid for Energy Dominance: Prime Minister Courts Saudi Investment
Story by Asim Khan • 15h


n the grand halls of power in Saudi Arabia, a Malaysian delegation, led by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, has been on a mission. The goal: to convince Saudi officials and business leaders to funnel their investments into Malaysia, a country eager to play a central role in the oil and gas development of Southeast Asia. Anwar, who also holds the position of Finance Minister, met with key figures from Saudi Arabia’s commerce and energy sectors, including Dr Majid Abdullah Alkassabi, the Minister of Commerce, and Amin H Nasser, the President and CEO of Saudi Aramco, the world's largest oil and gas company. (Read Also: Malaysia Records Improvement in Air Quality: A Beacon Amidst Global Pollution Challenges)
With the backing of his team – the Foreign Minister, Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir; the Investment, Trade and Industry Minister, Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz; and the Malaysian Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Datuk Wan Zaidi Wan Abdullah – Anwar sought to cultivate an environment conducive to Saudi investment. The move comes in the wake of Aramco’s expressed desire to make Malaysia the hub of Saudi Arabian oil and gas development in the Southeast Asia region. The talks were described as promising, with results expected to be announced soon. Anwar also bore witness to the exchange of memorandum of understanding documents between Malaysian and Saudi Arabian companies, signaling a strengthening of ties between the two countries.
ASEAN-GCC Summit and Beyond
This diplomatic endeavor was part of Anwar's working visit to attend the ASEAN-GCC Summit, a landmark meeting between the blocs of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). The summit, held for the first time since the two regional blocs established relations in 1990, aimed to bolster cooperation and optimize opportunities for bilateral trade and investment. Much is at stake. Saudi Arabia is Malaysia's largest trading partner among West Asian countries, with total bilateral trade between the two countries in 2022 amounting to US$10.26 billion, marking a hefty increase of 159.2 percent from 2021. (Read Also: Malaysia’s Crackdown on Call Centre Scams Unearths a Global Web of Deception)
Strengthening Ties and Creating Opportunities
As the ASEAN coordinator for the summit, Malaysia played a significant role in facilitating discussions and promoting cooperation. The cultivation of these relationships holds great potential for increased trade and investment, creating opportunities for Malaysian companies to export their expertise and capital to assist investments in GCC countries. It’s not just about oil and gas. The cooperation also encompasses projects related to real estate, technology, and aviation in both countries. The robustness of these ties, and the investments they might yield, are symbols of the seriousness and commitment of both Malaysia and Saudi Arabia to elevate their trade, investment relations, and cooperation to a new level. Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's visit to Saudi Arabia not only demonstrated Malaysia's commitment to attracting global investors but also underscored the country’s readiness to play a larger role in the world's energy sector. The discussions with Saudi Aramco and other Saudi Arabian companies suggest a growing interest in Malaysia as a hub for oil and gas development in Southeast Asia. As the world continues to grapple with shifting energy dynamics, these conversations are yet another reminder of the intricate web of global energy politics.

LONDON/SINGAPORE (Oct 20): Abu Dhabi state fund Mubadala Investment and Japanese oil and gas explorer Inpex are among firms competing to acquire SapuraOMV in a deal expected to be worth about US$1.2 billion (RM5.73 billion), according to two sources with direct knowledge.

The sale of the Malaysian-headquartered oil and gas upstream company could help boost weak global merger and acquisition (M&A) activity buffeted by headwinds from a slowing world economy, higher interest rates and geopolitical tension.

Indonesian energy company Medco Energi is also vying for SapuraOMV, an equal joint venture of Sapura Energy Bhd and Austria's OMV, with bids due this week, the sources added.

They declined to be identified named as the matter was private.

Sapura Energy declined to comment. OMV and Inpex said they had no comment. Mubadala and Medco did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

M&A activity in the Asia Pacific region and Japan dropped 26% to a 10-year low of US$624.4 billion for the first nine months of this year, versus the year-ago period, LSEG data shows.

Deal activity in the energy and power sectors in the region fell 44.9% to almost US$53 billion, LSEG data shows.

SapuraOMV produced about 30,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (kboepd) from its two Malaysian assets, SK310-B15 and SK408 — Gorek, Larak and Bakong, Sapura Energy said in its latest annual report for fiscal year 2023.

The planned stake divestment would help bring in fresh capital while paring debt, Sapura Energy said in the report.

With exploration interests in Australia, Mexico and New Zealand, SapuraOMV targets production of 100 kboepd through organic growth and M&A activity over the next five to eight years, according to OMV's website.

In November 2018, OMV said it was investing up to US$975 million for its 50% share of the equity in SapuraOMV in a deal the intended to springboard its Asia expansion.

Time to collecting. JFE work coming..

这场 nord stream 2 的 pipe coating 工，全程长达 2500 公里的天然气输送管，从俄罗斯南方输送天然气到德国。如今在芬兰的工厂已设立，而且production已在三月份开始了。concrete coating 是公司的强项，而且是最赚钱的生意。所以在这三年里，公司会有稳定的营收。在加上在关丹工厂挪威的 Johan Sverdrup project已如火如荼进行中,还有跟 penergy 公司的营收，和其他 join venture 公司的营收，不得了..!

华商去年拿到了一场6亿欧元的工，马币有多少，你自己算一算。

PETALING JAYA: The momentum of the oil and gas (O&G) sector in the country is expected to pick-up in the second quarter (Q2 17) onwards, thanks to cyclical recovery and high productivity.

Maybank IB Research, which is positive on the sector,  said it expect further pick-up in momentum in Q2 17 as volatility has receded, confidence has improved and costs have reset.

“The sector is on a cyclical recovery, as the oil market re-balances and capital expenditure (capex) grows. We expect stronger quarters ahead, as the sector moves into high productivity periods. 

“Our crude oil price assumption of US$53/bbl average for 2017 (Jan-May 17: US$54/bbl) is unchanged. We remain positive on the sector. Our key stock buys are Sapura Energy, Yinson, Dialog and Wah Seong,’’ Maybank IB said.

Elaborating further, the research house added that Organisation of Petroluem Exporting Countries (Opec) and non-Opec members recent extension of production cut (1.8 million barrels per day (bpd)) to June 2018 is market neutral but the commitment to drive down global stockpile is commendable, reflecting strong compliance and collaboration among members. 

On the domestic front, Petronas RM60bil capex commitment for 2017 (+20% year-on-year) is a positive, it noted, adding that the brokerage is slowly seeing a revival in upstream activities (i.e. rising drilling works).

Tenders pipeline are also on the rise, of which most (i.e. offshore support vessels (OSV), maintenance) are back-loaded in in the second half of this year, Maybank IB said. 

Commenting on its stock picks, the research house said it liked Sapura Energy as is a direct proxy, beta play for a recovering O&G sector outlook. Furthermore, it added monetising its gas assets is a catalyst not fully priced in yet.

As for Yinson, it is because of its undemanding valuations with strong earnings growth prospects, cashflow strength and proven execution capabilities, the research house noted. 

Its re-admission as a syariah compliant stock is another positive, Maybank IB said.

With Dialog, it is a direct proxy to Petronas Rapid and Pengerang play and another steady, long term growth story with much upside potential and cashflows/dividends to boot.

Wah Seong has strong earnings visibility over the next three years, backed by the EUR600mil NS2 job and inexpensive valuations vis-à-vis growth, the research house said. 

Maybank IB noted that Q1 17 results were generally in line, as out of the seven stocks under coverage whose results were released last month, five, or 71% came in line.

bad qtr come. if good, director buy already

Johan Sverdrup pipe coating production is starting. Revenue generate.

Wah Seong’s pipe coating business unit has received a further award worth c.USD18.2m (RM73.9m) from Statoil Petroleum AS Norway, for the Johan Sverdrup Export Pipeline Project (JoSEPP) for the provision of pipe shipping and related services. We are encouraged by this award, as it reaffirms our Outperform view on Wah Seong, for its execution abilities as a leading pipe coating company amidst this challenging oil price landscape, while providing further extended earnings visibility. The main pipe coating activities for this award expected to be completed by mid-2017, will now see the further award to extend this project’s contract scope up to 1QFY18. Our TP of RM0.94 pegged to 8x PE and FY17F EPS of 11.7sen remains intact.

The enhanced contract. Including this award extension, the JoSEPP award is worth c.USD57.7m for the full scope of coating work and pipe shipping and related services. The further award includes shipping of pipes to a port at west coast of Norway and subsequent offloading. The activity is expected to commence 2QFY17 and to be completed by 1QFY18.

Contract details. To recap, the initial award involves the coating of about 430 km of 18” and 36” pipes. The job scope also includes anti-corrosion coating, internal flow coating and concrete weight coating. The contract is expected to commence in 4QFY16 and to be completed by mid-2017. There are no changes in our estimates as we had already accounted for contract replenishments. The Group has stated that the contract is project specific and is not renewable.

Johan Sverdrup Project. Objective is to provide transportation solutions for oil and gas from the Johan Sverdrup Field to onshore O&G terminals - Mongstad and Kårstø. The 36” pipe outside diameter (OD) oil export pipeline stretches about 283 km which will go north to Mongstad. The 18” OD gas export pipeline is about 156 km and will go east from the Johan Sverdrup riser platform (JSRP) to a hot tap at Statpipe (S31) rich gas pipeline at approximately 130 m water depth

The worst period for wah seong is over. Wah seong just been recently award 2500 km Nord Stream 2 project. The job is to provide concrete coating to oil and gas linepipe which is the core bisness of wasco. The project period is 3 years. If you look to the history of wah seong, the most powerful made money is this concrete coating job. Now the share price is below 1.00, sure the director want to collect more before it surge to higher after a few months. “More low more boss collect.”

New project coming, 450 km
