Integrated oil & gas brown field services provider, Petra Energy Berhad (“Petra Energy”), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Petra Resources Sdn Bhd, has been awarded three separate work orders by Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (“PETRONAS”) for the provision of Hook-Up and Commissioning work of PETRONAS’ offshore facilities in Sabah and Sarawak waters.
The work orders involve the hook-up and commissioning for the ‘Betty Revisit 4 Project’, ‘ERB West Development Project’ and ‘SKO Pipeline Rejuvenation Project’ with a total estimate value of RM26.4 million.
