Petronas awards engineering contract for Kasawari CCS

UK energy consultancy Xodus has signed a conceptual engineering design contract for Petronas’ Kasawari carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Malaysia, Xodus said.

The Kasawari CCS project is offshore Sarawak.

The second phase of the development involves capture and processing of carbon from the Kasawari sour gasfield development and storing it in a neighbouring depleted field.

Kasawari CCS is expected to begin at the end of 2025 and will see annual carbon emissions lowered by around 3.7 million tonnes.

The project is in line with Petronas’ goal to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
