Malaysia's Kasawari Field Commences First Gas Production
PETRONAS recently commenced its first gas production at the Kasawari field, located in Block SK316, approximately 200 km off the coast of Sarawak, at an initial flow rate of 200 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscf/d).

Block SK316 is operated by PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd (PETRONAS Carigali) which holds a 90 per cent participating interest, while the remaining 10 per cent is held by Exploration and Production Malaysia Venture (EPMV).

Discovered in 2011, the Kasawari field is a crucial feed source for both the PETRONAS LNG Complex in Bintulu and in addressing the increasing domestic demand for gas. The field contains approximately 10 trillion cubic feet of natural gas resources, with a gas sales rate of 545 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscf/d).

The Kasawari Gas Field Development (GFD) project includes a Central Processing Platform (CPP), a Flare Platform, and a Wellhead Platform (WHP), all interconnected to the CPP via bridges. Gas from the Kasawari field is exported to a new riser platform at the E11 production hub through an 81km carbon steel pipeline for further gas delivery to customers in Bintulu.

The fabrication works for the Kasawari platforms and bridges were carried out locally by Malaysia Marine & Heavy Engineering Holdings Berhad (MHB) in Pasir Gudang and Ocean Might Sdn Bhd (OMSB) in Kuching. The CPP for the field is listed in the Malaysia Book of Records as the Heaviest Offshore Structure Platform, with a total weight of 53,893 metric tonnes (MT).

Malaysia Petroleum Management Senior Vice President Datuk Ir. Bacho Pilong said, “Kasawari is a testament to our local capabilities in executing large-scale projects. This accomplishment, involving more than 450 local subcontractors and vendors, was achieved within 26.6 million man-hours.”

"We are proud of this significant milestone, achieved, with strong support from both the federal and state governments, as well as the collaboration between our petroleum arrangement contractors and local service providers," he added.

PETRONAS is committed to securing an optimal and sustainable supply of oil and gas for the nation’s energy security while pursuing deliberate efforts towards achieving low-carbon and low-emission operations, in line with our goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
