INSTEP Continues to Accelerate Papua New Guinea Human Capital Development

INSTEP is ending the year 2022 with another success story marking the date of 15th December 2022 after 10 engineers from Santos Limited, Papua New Guinea, had successfully completed 4 months of the customised Petroleum Technology Programme (PTP). This event further validifies INSTEP’s reputation as an internationally acknowledged preferred learning solutions partner.


A cosy closing ceremony was held at Paya Bunga Hotel, Kuala Terengganu to commemorate the completion of the 4-month training programme. The programme started in August until December 2022 with a total of 19 learning weeks. Involving learners from various engineering backgrounds, INSTEP designed this programme with the intention to ensure all learners are exposed to multiple engineering fields and to upskill technical knowledge to boost up their capability.

Anticipation and cheerful smiles were reflected on the learners’ faces alongside INSTEP staffs.

INSTEP’s pivotal role with Santos Limited which previously known as Oil Search Limited (OSL), was established since 2018, when INSTEP had been actively providing technical learning solutions to OSL engineers and technicians through customised training programmes.

Mr. Muhammad Asri Omar, INSTEP Head of Marketing & Sales delivered his welcoming remarks during the ceremony.

Mr. Muhammad Asri Omar, INSTEP Head of Marketing & Sales extended his heartiest congratulations to the learners. “Your hard work and perseverance have paid off, congratulations to everyone. Four months might be considered a long time for you, but eventually here we are today, celebrating your successful completion after the challenges and hurdles you have gone through this programme.”

He also mentioned about INSTEP’s fervent effort in enriching the Papua New Guinea energy workforce. “INSTEP will continue to contribute to Papua New Guinea technical talents pipelines through our technical training programmes. Besides from your batch, we also have the apprentices who are currently undergoing training in INSTEP and will be finishing in April 2023.”

Mr. Biang Kanasa in his sharing as the learners’ representative.

Quoting Mr. Biang Kanasa in his learners’ representative speech, “Though we are from the same company, we just had the chance to connect and bond after joining this programme. In addition, now I am proud to say, we are able to speak the same language across different fields of engineering.”


Mr. Biang Kanasa also conveyed his gratitude towards INSTEP hospitality and 5-star services provided through his 4-month stay in INSTEP. “We were exposed to cultural differences when we just arrived here, but luckily in no time, we were able to adapt quickly since everyone at INSTEP is so warm and welcoming”, he added.

INSTEP Promotes Sustainability Agenda among Primary School Students

Nearing the year end does not deter INSTEP’s spirit to promote sustainability agenda, by conducting the second part of the signature CSR programme Sentuhan Edu-Lestari. The half-day programme is the continuation of the first session where 160 students participated in planting 80 mango trees (Harumanis) at INSTEP compound.

The Sentuhan Edu-Lestari Programme is conducted as a part of fulfilling the PETRONAS sustainability aspiration through the key areas of high-impact Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programmes. The programme took up two days from 23-24 November 2022, involving 160 participants from eight schools from the districts of Kuala Nerus and Setiu, Terengganu.

The programme included a session of interactive engagement with the students. A sharing on “Waste Classification” with fun games and activities throughout the session were prepared for the students. Enthusiastic and high-spirited cheers filled up the room during the session, with the students’ eagerness to answer questions and share their thoughts on the sustainability concepts.

INSTEP Chief Executive Officer, En. Idris bin Ibrahim enthusiastically delivered his welcoming remarks during the event.

Idris bin Ibrahim in his speech during the event highlighted the importance of instilling the interest of being an active player in taking care of the nature from the young age. “I am very optimistic that this programme will spark your interest in giving a hand for nurturing the nature, and I hope you will continue to play your part in carrying out the sustainable practices in our daily lives”.

Taking it down a notch from the outdoor mango tree planting, in this session, the students were given chance to grow green beans in a used container, which aligned with the topic of “Waste Classification and Sustainability”. The students were asked to bring their own container from home, which called for their awareness on the 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) concept.

The students actively participated in various activities during the session.

En. Idris bin Ibrahim also emphasised on the sustainability concept in his speech. “Sustainability is a continuous thing. Though we are doing it now, but the result is yet to come, the benefits will come into the picture later”.

The students came forward to share their thoughts on the activities and new knowledge gained from the session.

During the students’ sharing session, Husain Hilmi bin Mat Atar, a student from SK Bukit Wan mentioned about the essence of 3R. “If I were given a chance to make a change, I would like to add more bins according to the waste classifications, in order to have a cleaner school area.”

In addition, Nurul Hajar Nadiah binti Ramzi from SK Maras shared about the new knowledge she gained by participating in this event. “By coming to today’s session, I learnt a lot of new things, such as e-wastes, organic waste and sanitary waste”.

INSTEP Celebrates Second Batch of Job Ready Technicians for Sarawak’s First Methanol Project

3 November 2022 marked another INSTEP’s success story when 43 learners from Sarawak Petchem Sdn Bhd have successfully completed the Technician Training Programme (TTP). They are the second batch of TTP, tailored by INSTEP to train the young technical talents in areas of Operations, Maintenance, and Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) to be a qualified technician in delivering the state’s first mega methanol aspiration.

Certificate giving ceremony by the Chairman of Sarawak Petchem, YBhg. Tan Sri Datuk Amar (Dr.) Hj Abdul Aziz Dato Haji Husain and Chief Executive Officer of INSTEP, En. Idris Ibrahim.

The closing ceremony was honored by the presence of Chairman of Sarawak Petchem Sdn. Bhd., YBhg. Tan Sri Datuk Amar (Dr.) Hj Abdul Aziz Dato Haji Husain, Director-in-charge of Sarawak Petchem Sdn. Bhd., YBhg. Datu Dr Hj Muhammad Abdullah Zaidel and YBhg. Datu Hj Abdul Hadi Datuk Haji Abdul Kadir and Chief Executive Officer of INSTEP, En. Idris Ibrahim.

YBhg. Tan Sri Datuk Amar (Dr.) Hj Abdul Aziz Dato Haji Husain in his speech regarded his acknowledgment to the enormous dedication from INSTEP as the key player in supporting the Sarawak’s first mega-methanol project.

Chairman of Sarawak Petchem Sdn. Bhd., YBhg. Tan Sri Datuk Amar (Dr.) Hj Abdul Aziz Dato Haji Husain delivered his speech.

“INSTEP and PETRONAS are continuously exhibiting an unwavering endeavor on accelerating the human capital to reinforce the advancement of local workforce and technical talents, and concurrently lessening the dependency on external workforce, in an effort to establish Bintulu as a petrochemical hub,” he added.

The job-ready technicians will be stationed to multiple PETRONAS plants in Bintulu and Labuan to undergo On Job Training (OJT) as a part of the training development programme. This is crucial for the learners to get the exposure of the real-life working experience and to exercise safe working practices in the real plants.

Chief Executive Officer of INSTEP, En. Idris Ibrahim delivered his remarks during the event.

Quoting Chief Executive Officer of INSTEP, En. Idris Ibrahim’s words,” In a world that is increasingly volatile and uncertain, competency is currency. Equipping yourself with technical skills and knowledge can increase the employability and selling factor of oneself.”

He also touched upon the importance of setting the tone of professionalism to the learners. “The most important reminder to our learners before entering the professional field, is to stand firm and steadfast on your integrity belief. Knowledge and skills without discipline and self-integrity are insubstantial.”

Azri Ibrahim delivered his appreciation speech on behalf of his fellow colleagues.

Azri Ibrahim, the leader of Batch 2 Learners, conveyed his profound gratitude to be able to be a part of Sarawak Petchem legacy and joining the 1-year training programme at INSTEP.

“Despite coming from different family and educational background in Sarawak, we are able to adapt and study together here in INSTEP. We gained extensive new knowledge and skills including critical thinking and problem solving from our experienced instructors. This will be a momentous mark in our lives, personally and professionally,” he said.

Delightful smiles from the learners lit up the ceremony.

The dignitaries were also entertained with a stage performance from the learners.

This joyous ceremony is not the end for the learners, it only signifies the beginning of a new journey to them. With all the knowledge gained from INSTEP, this will be a kickstart to carve a new career pathway for the learners, endorsing INSTEP’s fruitful education system.


INSTEP has so far produced more than 130,000 technical graduates in various fields for the global energy sector over a period of four decades, an illustration of the passion in being the key player for PETRONAS human capital growth.
