Where desire meets determination.<\/strong><\/p>\n

UTM-MPRC INSTITUTE FOR OIL & GAS started as a Petroleum Industry Training Committee (JLPP) in 1985. Members of the committee were PETRONAS, Factory and Machinery Department, Local Consulting Departments, the gas industry local entrepreneurs and Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. It was officially launched by Yang Berhormat Dato\u2019 Mustafa Mohamed on the 2nd of July 1997.<\/p>\n

With an estimate of 98 TCF (Malaysia Energy Statistic Handbook, ST, 2015) gas reserves offshore along the Malaysian coast region, a wide range of industrial opportunities become prominence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Malaysia has entered the Gas Era with the implementation of the PETRONAS owned Peninsular Gas Utilization Project (PGU) in 1984, which benefits the residential, commercial, four-fuel diversification policy also gives a momentum to increase the usage of natural gas. The result of growing gas utilization is the development of private and local companies and legal bodies which are directly involved in promoting this industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the aforementioned statement, UTM has taken lead to form The Institute for Oil and Gas to become the coordination centre for the local and international professionals in the oil, gas and energy industries. The Institute for Oil and Gas is an accredited training centre for professionals in oil, gas and energy industry by <\/span>Energy Commission of Malaysia (ST)<\/span> and had acquired the accredited certification for its calibration laboratory services under the ISO 17025 scheme for its pressure and temperature testing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our Institute<\/h3>

\"\"<\/p>

UTM-MPRC Institute for Oil & Gas is formerly known as GASTEG. It is a centre of excellence (CoE) aimed to promote research and services by its rendered academic and technology arm, inoculate engineering excellence and solving industrial problems by innovative means.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

History<\/b>
UTM-MPRC Institute for Oil & Gas started as a committee named Petroleum Industry Training Committee (JLPP) in 1985. Members of the committe were PETRONAS, Factory and Machinery Department, Local Consulting Departments, the gas industry local entrepreneurs and Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). UTM-MPRC Institute for Oil & Gas was officially launched by Yang Berhormat Dato' Mustafa Mohamed on 2 July 1997. Inline with it's establishment, UTM-MPRC Institute for Oil & Gas has planned a wide range of activities and actively recruiting professionals in the development of gas industry.<\/p>

Vision<\/b>
To become a world class knowledge-based centre of excellence for the gas industry.<\/p>

Mission<\/b>
To become the leader in providing training, services, consultancy, information dissemination and R&D for the development of the gas industry.<\/p>

Profile in Brief<\/b>
With an estimates of 75 TCF gas reserves offshore along the Malaysian coast region, a wide range of industrial opportunities may become prominence. Malaysia has entered the Gas Era with the implementation of the PETRONAS owned Peninsular Gas Utilization Project (PGU) in 1984, which benefits the residential, combustion and industrial sectors. The Malaysian government four-fuel policy also gives a momentum to increase the usage of natural gas. The result of growing gas utilization is the development of private companies and legal bodies which are directly involved in this industry.<\/p>

Currently, the number of institutions offering professional training, research entity and technical services in the gas industry is limited by numbers, thus the existence of organization responsible for coordinating and implementing the technical needs is highly required.<\/p>

UTM-MPRC Institute for Oil & Gas was established and officially launched on the 2nd July 1997 by Yang Berhormat Dato' Mustafa Mohamed. In the spirit of the establishment, it is responsible to plan various activities with regard to the gas industry.
