We are excited to work with Petronas to enhance their subsea operations, and ensure the highest safety standards.”
In a statement issued on 2 March, Namaka Subsea said that the contract award is a significant achievement for the company and is expected to open up new opportunities in the global energy industry.
The contract is set to begin immediately and will see the close cooperation of the two companies for the delivery of services.

In terms of its most recent activities, Petronas signed two agreements with oil major ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Malaysia (ExxonMobil) earlier this year to jointly pursue carbon capture and storage (CCS) activation projects in Malaysia.
The next step includes defining the maturation of technical scopes for the CCS value chain, evaluation of the identified fields for CO2 storage utilization, development of the appropriate commercial framework, and establishment of advocacy plan support on regulations and policy development in enabling CCS projects.
