Quote by MD & CEO of MHB

Pandai Othman, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of MHB said, "We are honoured to have been entrusted with such a significant project from SSB. To us, this project award is not just another achievement for our record books but in fact, it signifies our strong and lasting partnership with SSB in many years to come.

With the announcement of Final Investment Decision by SSB for the project on Monday, 5th September 2022, followed by the award of this contract to MHB also indicates the beginning of the revitalisation of the oil and gas industry in Malaysia that has long been impeded due to the pandemic and economic slowdown causing oil and gas developers to be more cautious in its CAPEX spending for new developments.

Apart from our ultimate aim to deliver this project safely and timely, we are pleased to say that this project is aligned with our commitment in providing cleaner energy solutions through the utilisation of renewable energy to power the platform.

MHB has already begun our sustainability journey by integrating sustainable practices into our business and decision-making to ensure that we operate responsibly. Through this project, this will further intensify our aspiration to support all our stakeholders, in particular Shell and PETRONAS, towards materialising their net zero carbon emission agenda."
