HeadlinesBusiness Background Petronas Gas Bhd is a Malaysian gas infrastructure and utilities company of which Malaysia’s nationalized oil corporation, PETRONAS, holds a majority interest. Petronas Gas segments its primary operations into Gas Processing, Gas Transportation, Utilities, and Regasification businesses. While each of these contributes significantly to the company’s total revenue, its Gas Processing and Gas Transportation units combine to generate the majority. In Gas Processing, Petronas Gas receives processing fees under multi-year contracts by processing natural gas piped offshore for its parent company, PETRONAS. The Gas Transportation business encompasses the transmission of offshore natural gas through pipelines to customers in Malaysia and Singapore under multi-year agreements with PETRONAS.
  observatory It's expected that the industry lobby wants gas to play a greater role. But according to the government plan, the share of gas in power generation capacity will fall from 45% in 2021 to 36% in 2029, before picking up from 2030 onwards. Refer page 12. https://www.st.gov.my/en/contents/files/download/169/Report_on_Peninsular_Malaysia_Generation_Development_Plan_2020_(2021-2039)-FINAL.pdf Investors must have patience. 31/12/2021 11:16 PM Calvin882 Note that the plan is expecting renewable energy will slowly take a bigger portion to replace the non renewable energy such as coal and gas. However, I personally foresee adoption of renewable energy will be slower than expected and companies and power generators will face increasing pressure to phase out coal. Knowing that gas emits 50% less carbon emissions than coal, gas is the next best option that can fill the gap for many years to come. 01/01/2022 7:20 AM observatory The common obstacle to rapid renewable energy adoption is intermittency problems, which can only be mitigated with advances in energy storage and continent size smart grid that even out fluctuations in power generation. However Malaysia has the unique advantage (or problem) with too much power generation capacity due to poor planning in the past. Power reserve margin is in the range of 35% to 40%. https://www.thestar.com.my/business/business-news/2020/07/15/power-reserve-margin-to-rise-above-40 Some say the optimum reserve margin should be 15% https://www.malaysiakini.com/letters/564186 The problem is too many coal fired power plants have been commissioned. The last one came online just about a year ago. In order not to prematurely scrap the investment, coal fired power plants will only start phasing out in 2030s and the last one in 2044. But demand for power is no longer fast growing even after the pandemic. As economy becomes more advanced the energy intensity per unit of GDP declines. All new power plants will be in the renewable space, and they continue adding to the already abundant spare capacity. There isn't much room for gas plants. Not until coal plants get phasing out. 01/01/2022 1:19 PM masterus Oil prices could hit US$100 as demand outstrips supply, analysts say LONDON (Jan 12): Oil prices that rallied 50% in 2021 will power further ahead this year, analysts predict, saying a lack of production capacity and limited investment in the sector could lift crude above US$100 a barrel. 14/01/2022 12:05 PM Calvin882 I foresee Petgas will be one of the main beneficiary from global transition to environment friendly energy. 23/02/2022 1:18 PM observatory The dividend is made up of 22 sen + 10 sen special dividend. The company should continue to pay special dividends in excess of earnings. Right now it's in a net cash position, which is financially inefficient. PetGas could have taken on a lot more debt with very low interest rate, and return excess capital to shareholders. Just look at Tenaga's gearing level. Debt servicing interests could be easily met by its stable cash flow. PetGas business has limited growth prospect. As commented before, it will not benefit from the transition to cleaner fuel, at least not until 2030. The roadmap has already been laid down by the Energy Commission. The only way to justify current share price is to become more efficient with capital by increasing the debt level. 24/02/2022 12:29 AM guppycrow Tapis crude discount on apex sgx and australia aip proxy player.

But the impact of higher fuel gas costs is unexpected. Among PGB four businesses, only Utilities have non pass-through input gas cost. Utilities gross profit has reduced substantially by over 70% YoY, from RM75m to RM22m. Gross profits have also declined across three other businesses. But according to Hong Leong analyst, "PGB will be able to recoup back the higher fuel cast costs for its Transportation and Regasification segments in subsequent period" Looking further ahead, need to watch out whether earnings will be reduced under RP2 (Regulatory Period 2) which runs from 2023 to 2025. 20/05/2022 11:57 PM unicornbird Thanks obs.

"This year, we expect to almost double that [capex] amount which is RM60 billion, because of catch-up and the return of [business] activities. This is also the time we have to make inroads in some material steps into the non-hydrocarbon side of things," Petronas chief financial officer Liza Mustapha said on Thursday (June 9) at the MIDF Conversations event, which was held virtually. MIDF group managing director Datuk Charon Mokhzani was the moderator for the event. Liza said that out of Petronas' planned RM60 billion capex allocation for FY22, about RM40 billion has been earmarked for the oil and gas business besides non-hydrocarbon–related operations while the balance of the capex allocation has been earmarked to finance Petronas Chemicals Group Bhd's (PetChem) wholly-owned subsidiary Petronas Chemicals International B.V. (PCIBV) proposed acquisition of the entire stake in Sweden-based specialty chemicals group Perstorp Holding AB for €1.54 billion (about RM7.02 billion) from Financiere Foret S.A.R.L. Petronas owns a 64.35% stake in PetChem, according to PetChem's latest annual report. Looking ahead, Liza said non-hydrocarbon-related income is expected to account for about 30% of Petronas' revenue. "[About] 30% of our revenue should be coming from something which is not related to hydrocarbons. "We have to factor in [business] growth, otherwise, we will not be able to manage the energy transition and we will miss our target of achieving [net] zero [carbon] emissions by 2050," she said. According to her, about 10% of Petronas' RM60 billion capex allocation for FY22 will be earmarked for non-traditional businesses such as specialty chemicals and solar energy. "Previously, I think there was never a plan on what rate it should be [for the clean energy segment] because there was no allocation from the top. So, it didn't really take off. "So, we need to rethink our decision on the capital allocation [for the clean energy segment] and put it aside, because if we leave it at that and let them go with the flow, we are going to be a year behind the target again," she said. Petronas' financials improved in 1QFY22. In a statement on May 31, 2022, Petronas said profit after tax rose to RM23.44 billion in 1QFY22 from RM9.22 billion a year earlier while revenue climbed to RM78.75 billion from RM52.55 billion. "Despite favourable [first quarter] performance, the high oil and gas prices are expected to remain vulnerable with increased volatility due to geopolitical and macro-economic uncertainties. "Petronas will continue to strengthen our operational excellence to maximise value creation whilst intensifying our growth and sustainability agenda in Malaysia and internationally,” the company said.
