PFLNG DUA.
Construction of the PFLNG DUA began in 2014 and was completed on 18 February 2020 when it was finally homeward bound, having successfully sailed away from the Samsung Heavy Industries Shipyard in Geoje Island, South Korea.
The journey took approximately two weeks and covered 1,840 nautical miles. When it arrived at the Rotan gas field, PFLNG DUA was moored at a water depth of 1,300 metres.
PFLNG DUA is planned for commercialisation by the end of 2020 which will subsequently enable PETRONAS to monetise new deepwater sources of cleaner energy.
The PFLNG DUA supports PETRONAS' portfolio of LNG facilities around the world, further establishing our position as a reliable LNG supplier in meeting global growing demand.
