INSTEP marks Strategic Alliance with Honeywell

PETRONAS Technical Training Sdn Bhd (PTTSB) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Honeywell on 10 November 2016 at Malaysian Petroleum Club KLCC to further strengthen the business collaboration in enhancing the quality of training in generating skilled workforce for the industry.

The ceremony was graced by Dato’ Raiha Azni Abd Rahman, Senior Vice President, Group Human Resource Management PETRONAS and Chairman of PTTSB Board.

Honeywell, a leading process technology company, is not new to PETRONAS for Control System and Instrumentation installations. INSTEP utilizes Honeywell Distributed Control System for its Upstream Downstream Training Plant (UDTP) and Instrumentation Academy.

Speaking at the event, Chandramohan M Saminathan, CEO PTTSB, highlighted, “The alliance brings together Honeywell’s leading technology in control system and global market outreach with INSTEP’s competent instructors and state-of-the-art facilities. The inclusion of hands-on training at INSTEP UDTP will enhance the quality of the learners and be a catalyst for more international programmes in the future”.

Briand Greer, President Honeywell ASEAN, expressed confidence that this MoU will broaden collaboration between Honeywell and PETRONAS in the oil and gas industry. He believes this will further bolster both companies’ aspiration to create a stronger presence in the Asian region.

As the global oil and gas industry continues to be affected by volatile oil prices, it is envisaged this alliance will support PETRONAS’ unwavering effort to produce skilled workforce and capable human capital for the industry.
