operations refers to gas pipeline, not terminal)
SINGAPORE, April 12 (Reuters) - Malaysia's national oil
company Petroliam Nasional Berhad aims to restart the gas
pipeline currently under force majeure by the first quarter of
2024, a senior company executive said on Wednesday.
"Our plan is to complete the work by Q1 2024," said
Shamsairi Ibrahim, vice president of LNG marketing and trading
at the company, known as Petronas. The facility's restart is
subject to approval from local authorities, he said.
In October, Petronas declared a force majeure on gas supply
to Malaysia LNG Dua due to a pipeline leak caused by soil
movement at its Sabah-Sarawak Gas Pipeline.
