Petronas ZFLNG Terminal is a proposed floating LNG (FLNG) export terminal in Malaysia.

Location

Information on where the FLNG terminal would be located is not readily available, so it was initially presumed to be near Rotan Gas Field (Malaysia).

Background

In December 2022, it was announced that Petronas would employ Japan's JGC and South Korea's Samsung Heavy Industries to build the terminal.

It would be powered by a nearby natural gas-fired power station.

In January 2023, Petronas signed an Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Commissioning (EPCC) contract for the project with JGC and Samsung Heavy Industries.
