KUALA LUMPUR – Malaysia is considering the establishment of a carbon capture and storage (CCS) hub at Kerteh, Terengganu, as part of its efforts to improve the country’s carbon management infrastructure. The initial CCS hub development will center on Kuantan, with a study on the East Coast carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS) industrial cluster projected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2027. PETRONAS has also identified the offshore Lawit field as a possible carbon storage location. The extension of CCS infrastructure could spur additional industrial development while also creating opportunities for environmental services such as planned waste management and industrial waste recovery.
