This step marks a critical acceleration in delivering one of Southeast Asia’s most advanced low-carbon infrastructure projects.
Awarded following the execution of pre-FEED services in 2024, the FEED contract entrusts RINA with advancing engineering for the southern onshore CO2 receiving terminal in Peninsular Malaysia. The terminal is designed to receive CO2 from multiple domestic and international industrial emitters, which will subsequently be transported and injected into offshore geological storage.
Michele Budetta, CEO of RINA Consulting, said: “Securing the FEED phase underscores the trust placed in RINA’s engineering depth and execution capability. We are proud to continue our collaboration with PETRONAS in advancing this strategic carbon management project. This phase introduces greater complexity and higher expectations, and we are committed to supporting the delivery of Malaysia’s most strategic CCS infrastructure to date.”
This project supports Malaysia’s climate commitments and demonstrates the increasing readiness of Southeast Asia to implement large scale, low-carbon infrastructure. RINA’s appointment to the FEED phase confirms its ability to support such strategic programmes and contribute to real-world decarbonisation.
