Saying “NO!” to Carbon Footprint
Representatives from INSTEP, Group Procurement, Group Technical Services, and TNBES gathered together virtually to celebrate this major milestone achieved in SEE CAPEXLESS project.
Moving forward with a stronger commitment to sustainability, Institut Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (INSTEP) and TNB Energy Services Sdn Bhd (TNBES) celebrated the official project completion and realisation of Smart Energy Efficiency (SEE) in line with achieving National Agenda overall emission reduction target, while catalysing PETRONAS Sustainability Development Agenda.
This business collaboration effort started from the initiative under Project Delivery and Technology (PD&T) MAGELLAN Project with the main objectives to reduce energy consumption and costs, as well as to contribute to reducing millions tonnes of carbon footprint in order to support National Agenda on climate change.
One of the focus areas is CAPEXLESS High Efficiency Equipment Upgrade. In close collaboration with Group Procurement (GP) and Group Technical Services (GTS), INSTEP is honoured to be chosen as the first pilot OPU in PETRONAS and also in the oil & gas industry for the SEE CAPEXLESS implementation.
“This initiative is in line with INSTEP’s commitment to PETRONAS Sustainability Development Agenda in safeguarding the environment, which features value creation and generates positive impact to our society,” reiterated INSTEP Chief Executive Officer, Idris Ibrahim on INSTEP’s commitment to be a sustainability corroborator in transitioning into green agenda and sustainability space.
The handover of energy audit report which was taken place in Nov 2019, that oversaw the official operationalisation of SEE CAPEXLESS project between INSTEP and TNBES.
Following the Detailed Energy Efficiency Audit at INSTEP in Nov 2019, INSTEP has tapped into TNBES solutions by retrofitting light emitting diode (LED) lighting and high mast lighting in Non-Process Area such as administration, office buildings and street lighting at INSTEP. This collaboration enables INSTEP to save approximately 407,880 kWH per year of energy consumption, thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 283 tonnes.
“This collaboration is seen as another significant collaboration between GLCs to boost efforts towards Energy Efficiency and accelerate the growth of Green Energy in Malaysia,” said TNBES Managing Director, Dr. Ir. Ahmad Jaafar Abd Hamid.
Apart from this, INSTEP also previously embarked on food composting, which is a reflection of “from food waste to resources”, and estimated to compost around 36.5 tonnes of food waste annually, contributing to greenhouse gases reduction that is equivalent to what 466 trees can absorb annually. INSTEP will continuously play its active role as the sustainability corroborator in creating sustainable values for all.
All the conventional lightings at 76 INSTEP buildings were replaced with LED lighting and high mast lighting, creating savings of approximately 407,880 kWH per year of energy consumption, thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 283 tonnes.

INSTEP Commitment to Supporting the First Refrigerated LPG Terminal in SEA
The first strategic partnership between Institut Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (INSTEP) and Global Petro Storage (GPS) Klang Terminal was realised when 15 learners were gathered on 9 August 2020, celebrating the commencement of GPS LPG, Storage & Terminal Technician Training Programme.
Earlier in March 2020, GPS Klang Terminal, the leader in independent storage and logistics, inked an agreement with INSTEP for the latter to accelerate the competency development of Storage and Terminal technicians in supporting the first independent refrigerated LPG terminal in Southeast Asia.
Prior to this project coming onstream in early 2021, 15 learners will undergo the customised training programme from August to December 2020. Upon completion, the technicians will join the terminal operations, which has a capacity of 134,400 cubic meters, comprising of 2 refrigerated tanks and 4 pressurised bullets.
“INSTEP has the required world-class facilities, people and resources, and was even heavily involved in the selection of trainees to be enrolled in this training programme,” said Mr. Ahmad Nainy Mokhtar, GPS Klang Terminal Director.
Aspiring to be a progressive solutions partner enriching energy workforce for a sustainable future, INSTEP is passionate about progress in transforming learning experience, supporting our customers and learners in realising “what could be” to “what is.”

INSTEP As Technology Acceleration Enabler in PETRONAS 5G Project
Supporting PETRONAS growth strategy into digitalisation space, Institut Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (INSTEP) has always supported the research & development of latest industry & technology solutions in the energy industry by capitalising on our world-class facilities and experienced industry experts.
Working hand-in-hand with Project Delivery & Technology (PD&T) team and PETRONAS Research Sdn. Bhd. (PRSB), INSTEP is honoured to be the first testing facility for 5G deployment in oil & gas industry through the 3-month feasibility study on remote controlling and monitoring of INSTEP’s Upstream Downstream Training Plant (UDTP) Water System from PRSB via fibre optic, coupled with CCTVs, drones, head mounted, and AnyMal (platform robot). 5G project is one of PETRONAS oil & gas transformation and digitalisation initiative aiming to improve operation & production, implement remote monitoring and diagnostic, and improve workers’ safety and security.
INSTEP’s world-class facilities, in particular, UDTP, being the first-of-its-kind in the world, simulates real plant experiential learning to generate job-ready engineers & technicians. The real-world simulation of Upstream and Downstream plant scenarios in a safe environment has made UDTP a suitable testbed to test and pilot new & innovative technology deployment in safe operating conditions before the full commercial application. INSTEP is forever ready to support and accelerate PETRONAS Technology Readiness assessment by actively stepping up to play our role as the Technology Acceleration Enabler.
