maximising recoveries of discovered fields through

advanced technology and innovative solutions as

well as increasing exploration activities.

As one of the oldest plants in the world, Brunei

LNG has invested billions of dollars in plant

rejuvenation works over the past five decades,

extending the plant’s lifetime while producing

LNG safely and efficiently.

In 2015, Brunei LNG completed the Tank 6

Project within budget and without any Loss

Time Incident (LTI). The net storage capacity was

increased to 280,000m

following the transition

to new LNG carriers which can accommodate

between 137,000m

and 155,000m

. Brunei LNG

also completed a new laboratory, building on the

success of Brunei LNG lab operations which was

ranked first by Shell for six years running.

Meanwhile, 2016 saw the completion of the

COGEN II Project – a joint venture project

between Brunei LNG, Brunei Shell Petroleum Co

Sdn Bhd (BSP) and the Department of Electrical

Services. The project resulted in a fuel-efficient

plant and reduced Brunei LNG’s carbon footprint.

A significant number of activities are ongoing to

ensure higher plant availability and reliability.

This includes projects for Refrigerant Machinery

Rejuvenation, Instrumentation and Safeguarding,

Instrument Air and Nitrogen Plant. Major

maintenance is also ongoing for the utilities

systems such as raw water treatment and

cooling water systems. Brunei LNG continuously

strives to optimise its gas value chain and energy

efficiency by implementing Advanced Process

Control application and process tools.

Brunei LNG continuously contributes to the

nation’s capacity development, ensuring

Bruneians are being equipped with the necessary

skills and knowledge through many different

initiatives and collaborations over the years.

In 2017, Brunei LNG significantly contributed to

the set-up of Centre for Capacity Building (PPK), a

multi-programme vocational skills training centre

which is operated by the Ministry of Energy to

develop the country’s human resources.

In 2018, the mini plant dubbed Hands-On

Operation Training (HOTS) Unit at the Institute

of Brunei Technical Education (IBTE) Jefri

Bolkiah Campus (JBC) was officially opened,

providing IBTE’s students an integrated

authentic learning environment to help them

develop their skills. The mini plant provides an

authentic and practical hands-on training, with

the aim of producing industry-ready graduates

who can contribute to the needs of the industry

immediately. Brunei LNG was involved in leading

the project that started in 2015, in collaboration

with other partners in the government sectors

and the other operator and service companies in

the oil and gas industry.

Growing Strong Partnerships

Brunei LNG’s commitment and main strategic

objectives for corporate social responsibility are

to manage operational impact and contribution
