Pengerang Refining And Petrochemical (PRefChem) is a strategic alliance of two of the world’s largest and most successful national oil companies - Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS), the national oil company of Malaysia, and Saudi Aramco, the national oil company of Saudi Arabia. Together, we form an equal partnership in two joint ventures, namely Pengerang Refining Company Sdn. Bhd. (formerly known as PRPC Refinery & Cracker Sdn Bhd) and Pengerang Petrochemical Company Sdn. Bhd. (formerly known as PRPC Polymers Sdn Bhd)
This smart partnership brings together secured resources, cutting edge technologies, a vast amount of experience, and commercial presence of two world-class companies in the operations of the refinery, cracker and selected petrochemical facilities in the Refinery And Petrochemical Integrated Development (RAPID) Project which forms a significant part of the Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC) in Malaysia’s southern state of Johor.
Our refinery complex has a capacity of 300,000 barrels of crude per day, and will produce a range of refined petroleum products, including low sulphur jet fuel, motor gasoline and diesel, meeting Euro 5 fuel specifications. It will also provide feedstock for the integrated petrochemical complex, with a nameplate capacity of 3.6 million metric tonne per annum (mtpa).This partnership comes together with a shared vision and similar set of values, resulting in a high degree of integration between refining and petrochemicals.
