KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 17 (Bernama) -- PETRONAS Gas Berhad (PGB) received the first commercial Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) cargo recently for its newly-commissioned Regasification Terminal Pengerang (RGTP) in Pengerang, Johor.
 
RGTP, also known as RGT2, is PGB’s second regasification facility to commence operation after its first facility situated in Sungai Udang, Melaka. The LNG cargo belonging to PETRONAS was delivered to the RGTP by MISC Bhd’s LNG vessel, Seri Begawan. 
 
Speaking on the momentous occasion, Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of PGB, Kamal Bahrin Ahmad, who is also Chairman of PLNG2 Sdn Bhd said, “The commencement of the commercial operations of RGTP on 1 November 2017 marks a very significant growth milestone for PGB. It strengthens our Regasification business segment and will provide additional revenue stream to PGB.”
 
Prior to this, the RGTP has received three commissioning cargoes on 1 September 2017, 23 September 2017 and 17 October 2017,” he added.
 
The RGTP is built to provide primary gas supply to the refinery and petrochemical plants, as well as Pengerang Cogeneration Plant in the Pengerang Integrated Complex, and to the Peninsular Gas Utilisation system, to augment the availability of gas in the country.
 
The RGTP delivered the first gas to the PGU pipeline on 15 September 2017.
 
The RGTP consists of an LNG regasification unit with a total capacity of 3.5 MTPA (or 490 mmscfd); two units of 200,000m3 LNG storage tanks; and a jetty which can receive up to 90 LNG standard to Q-Max carriers per year.
 
The facility is operated by Pengerang LNG (Two) Sdn Bhd. PGB owns 65% share in Pengerang LNG (Two) Sdn Bhd, while the remaining shares are held by Dialog LNG Sdn Bhd (25%) and Permodalan Darul Takzim (10%).
