Malaysian oil and gas company Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) is developing a refinery and petrochemical integrated development project (RAPID) and other associated facilities in Pengerang, Southern Johor, Malaysia, through a project called Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC).
Launched in May 2012, PIC is part of the larger Pengerang Integrated Petroleum Complex (PIPC) proposed by the Johor state government. Total investment for the PIPC project is approximately MYR97bn ($27bn), of which the RAPID project costs MYR57bn ($16bn) and the associated facilities require MYR40bn ($11bn).
A feasibility study along with site topographical survey and soil investigation work for the project were completed in October 2011. Front-end engineering design (FEED) and an environmental impact assessment studies have also been completed.
In April 2014, the Petronas board of directors approved the final investment decision (FID) for the RAPID project. The refinery project is anticipated to be completed by early 2019. It is expected to employ 70,000 workers during construction and generate 4,000 new jobs upon completion.
RAPID project site details and facilities
"The complex will cover an area of 2,000ha and will produce nine million tonne of petroleum products and 4.5 million tonne of petrochemicals a year."
Southern Johor was chosen as the location for the project due to its proximity to deepwater port facilities and regional demand centres. The location enables easy transport of finished products to the market. The complex will cover an area of 2,000ha, and include a crude oil refinery and petrochemical complex capable of processing 300,000 barrels per day (bpd). These two projects will collectively produce 7.7 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) of differentiated and speciality chemicals such as synthetic rubbers and high-grade polymers.
The RAPID project refinery will produce gasoline and diesel that will meet Euro 4 and Euro 5 fuel specifications. It will also supply feedstock for the petrochemical complex, which will create highly specialised chemicals. The refinery will use modern technologies to develop these products and follow stringent environmental regulations.
