PETRONAS, Italy's Eni ink JV framework to explore regional upstream collaboration
The agreement builds on a memorandum of understanding inked in December 2024.
In a statement today, Petronas said that the JVFA reflects both companies' shared commitment to combine selected upstream interests in Malaysia and Indonesia.
The national oil and gas company also said that the agreement is expected to deliver up to 500,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day of sustainable production, with approximately three billion barrels of developed reserves and an estimated 10 billion barrels of exploration potential.
"Definitive agreements are targeted for completion by end-2025, subject to regulatory, governmental, and partner approvals,' it said.
In another statement, Petronas CCS Ventures Sdn Bhd (PCCSV), MISC Bhd (MISC), and Mitsui OSK Lines Ltd (MOL) have announced the incorporation of a strategic JV company, Jules Nautica Sdn Bhd.
PCCSV is a wholly owned subsidiary of Petronas.
This JV will lead the development and act as the ultimate owner of liquefied carbon dioxide (LCO2) carriers, which are critical for transporting LCO2 to designated storage sites as part of advancing carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions.
Petronas said that the JV aims to become a leading owner of LCO2 carriers, facilitating the safe and efficient transportation of LCO2 to designated carbon dioxide (CO2) storage sites.
"Focused on supporting future CCS projects across the Asia Pacific region, the JV will also play a key role in completing the CCS value chain.
"Through strategic commercial agreements with CO2-emitting industries and storage companies, this partnership will provide a critical cross-border solution to meet growing environmental and regulatory needs,' said Petronas. - Bernama

Blackouts due to gas supply hitch
Published on: Saturday, July 26, 2025 Published on: Sat, Jul 26, 2025 Text Size: According to SE Chief Operating Officer Ir. Ts. Mohd Yusmanizam Mohd Yusof, the shutdown occurred at 2.11pm, affecting gas delivery to power plants in the Kota Kinabalu area. Kota Kinabalu: An emergency shutdown at a Petronas-owned gas terminal on Wednesday disrupted gas supply to several power stations, prompting Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd (SE) to implement rolling blackouts across parts of the State. According to SE Chief Operating Officer Ir. Ts. Mohd Yusmanizam Mohd Yusof, the shutdown occurred at 2.11pm, affecting gas delivery to power plants in the Kota Kinabalu area. The affected stations were forced to switch from gas to diesel fuel, resulting in a 60-megawatt drop in generation capacity for the Sabah and Labuan electricity grid. The first round of load shedding, from 2.38pm to 4.53pm, affected users in Pitas, Papar, Keningau, Kunak, Balung and Tawau. A second blackout followed at 6.38pm, impacting Kudat, Kota Marudu, Tuaran, Lok Kawi, Kimanis, Beaufort, Tenom, Nabawan, Beluran, Sandakan, Semporna, Sebatik and parts of Pitas and Tawau. Full power supply was restored by 9.36pm. SESB extended its apologies to consumers for the inconvenience and for delays in communication regarding the outages. The utility also appealed for public understanding, citing ongoing operational challenges in maintaining a stable power supply. Consumers in need of assistance or updates are advised to contact SESB via the Sabah Electricity Careline at 15444 or 088-515000, WhatsApp at 019-852 5427, or through the Sabah Electricity mobile application. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

Pressing times for espresso
A serving of espresso at the Lavazza Museum in Turin; and (pic, below) breakfast customers at Caffe Baratti & Milano, inside the Galleria Subalpina in Turin. The high price of beans has put coffee bars in a bind in Italy, where the drink is a ritual and customers demand cheap espresso. — Fabio Bucciarelli/The New York Times Company ANDREA Consilvio did something this spring that he called 'a little crazy' – he bought an old and well-known coffee bar in the northwestern Italian city of Turin, his hometown. Brewing coffee for coffee-obsessed Italians, the people who invented espresso and the commercial machines and stovetop pots to make it, might hardly seem like a leap of faith.

Google partners with Italy's Energy Dome on zero-emission power supply

REUTERS/Arnd Wiegmann/File Photo/File Photo MILAN (Reuters) -Italian energy storage firm Energy Dome said on Friday it had entered a commercial partnership with Google to supply carbon-free energy to the grids that power the operations of the U.S. tech giant. As part of the agreement, Google has made a strategic investment in Milan-based Energy Dome, which has developed a CO2 battery technology to support the energy transition through long-duration energy storage solutions, the companies said in a joint statement. They did not disclose the financial details. Google joins other investors in the Italian energy storage firm such as Oman's sovereign wealth fund and global tank storage operator Vopak. Google's first commercial long-duration energy storage deal is part of a growing number of advanced energy technologies the group needs to hit a goal to run its operations on 24/7 carbon-free energy by 2030. Energy Dome's CO2-based system stores energy by compressing and liquefying carbon dioxide, which is later expanded to generate electricity. The technology avoids the use of scarce raw materials such as lithium and copper, making it potentially attractive to European policymakers seeking to reduce reliance on critical minerals and bolster energy security. Energy Dome launched its first commercial-scale plant in Sardinia in 2022 with a view to completing it by the end of 2024, with a 24-hour cycle and a 20-megawatt capacity able to power 13,000-15,000 houses.
