據油價網6月27日報道， 馬來西亞國家石油公司（馬國油）預測，該國原油產量將在2024年達到每日約200萬桶石油當量的峰值。

馬國油勘探和生產部門負責人阿迪夫·祖爾基夫利在能源亞洲會議上表示，馬國油的主要產出是天然氣，而且將保持這種狀態。馬國油的碳氫化合物產量中，天然氣占據60%至70%。

祖爾基夫利說：“我們繼續尋找更多的天然氣項目，在馬來西亞，我們需要繼續進行一些石油勘探來填補我們的煉油廠?！?/p>

盡管預計產量將達到峰值，但該公司高管表示，馬國油正在尋求在國外擴大天然氣產量的機會。他指出，馬國油在加拿大LNG項目中持有25%的股份，這將使其總產量每日增加約70萬桶石油當量。

然而，根據馬國油自身的產量數據，石油和天然氣產量似乎在去年達到峰值。據路透社報道，馬國油去年的日均產量為240萬桶石油當量。

6月26日，OPEC秘書長預測全球石油需求將在2045年達到每日1.1億桶，并且在此期間能源需求將增長23%。

與此同時，馬國油還計劃在其他領域實現多元化：本周該公司宣布與道達爾能源和日本三井合作開發碳捕獲和儲存能力。

隨著環保激進人士和政府對減少排放越來越有壓力，碳捕獲和儲存引起了石油和天然氣行業的越來越多的關注。

環保激進人士對碳捕獲和儲存并不是很支持，但一些石油和天然氣公司傾向于認為與進入風能和太陽能相比，這對它們來說是最有意義的舉措。

Malaysia Expects Its Oil Production To Peak Next Year

Malaysia’s state-owned oil and gas company Petronas has forecast the country’s crude oil production will peak in 2024 at around 2 million barrels of oil equivalent daily.

The bulk of Petronas’ output is natural gas and it will remain this way, the company’s head of exploration and production, Adif Zulkifli, said at the Energy Asia conference, as quoted by Reuters.

Natural gas accounts for between 60% and 70% of Petronas’ hydrocarbon production.

"We continue to look for more gas portfolio, but of course, there is commitment in Malaysia, I think we need to continue to do some oil exploration to fill up our refineries," Zulkifli said.

Despite expectations of peak production, Petronas is looking for gas production expansion opportunities abroad, the executive also said, noting the Canada LNG project, where it holds a 25% stake, will add some 700,000 barrels of oil equivalent daily to its total.

based on the company’s own production figures, however, oil and gas output appears to have peaked last year. The daily average of Petronas in that year stood at 2.4 million barrels of oil equivalent, Reuters noted.

A day earlier, the secretary-general of OPEC forecast that global oil demand will rise to 110 million barrels daily by 2045, with overall energy demand rising by 23% over that period.

Meanwhile, the Malaysian company is also looking to diversify into other areas: it announced this week a business venture with TotalEnergies and Japanese Mitsui for the development of carbon capture and storage capabilities.

Carbon capture and storage is drawing growing interest from the oil and gas industry as pressure from activists and governments increases to reduce their emission footprint by any means necessary.

Activists are not big fans of CCS but some oil and gas companies tend to see it as a move that makes the most sense for them in comparison to entering wind and solar power.
