Technip Energies

For more than four decades, Technip Energies has been closely woven into Malaysia’s industrial fabric. Establishing itself in the early 1980s, the company now employs nearly 2,000 professionals in the Asia-Pacific region, with its Kuala Lumpur Operating Centre (KLOC) serving as a regional hub. From executing pioneering projects to investing in local talent and sustainability, Technip Energies’ presence reflects a long-term partnership with Malaysia’s growth ambitions.

How is Technip Energies driving new initiatives in Malaysia?
Malaysia has played host to several of the company’s milestone achievements. The Kuala Lumpur hub has been central to delivering landmark national projects such as the PETRONAS Floating LNG (PFLNG) Satu, the world’s first floating liquefied natural gas facility, and the Utilities, Interconnecting and Offsite (UIO) facilities for the Petronas RAPID project - both of which placed Malaysia on the global energy map. More recently, Technip Energies was awarded the contract for a new greenfield melamine plant in Kedah, designed with CASALE’s Low Energy Melamine (LEM™) technology to reduce CO₂ emissions and improve efficiency. These projects highlight not only engineering excellence but also the company’s ability to align with Malaysia’s evolving industrial and environmental goals.

What underpins the company’s long-term commitment to local talent and communities?
Equally central to its presence in Malaysia is a deep investment in people. Since 2011, the SHINE programme has been a cornerstone of Technip Energies’ social engagement. Through scholarships, teacher training, and support for underserved communities in Kuala Lumpur and Sabah, the initiative has helped bridge educational gaps. In collaboration with Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, the SHINE Scholarship programme provides study funding, internships, and career opportunities to local students, directly contributing to Malaysia’s knowledge economy. Partnerships with the PINTAR Foundation and the Ministry of National Unity extend the programme’s impact, reaching schools and universities nationwide. More than 200 students from eight universities have already benefitted, underlining the company’s commitment to building Malaysia’s future workforce.

Partnerships also extend into the industrial space. Technip Energies maintains a 50:50 joint venture with Malaysia Marine and Heavy Engineering (MMHE), reinforcing competitiveness across the full project lifecycle from engineering and procurement to installation and commissioning. Such collaborations ensure the transfer of technical expertise, strengthen Malaysia’s industrial base, and create a multiplier effect across local suppliers, contractors, and service providers.

How is sustainability shaping the company’s projects and operations?
Technip Energies has embedded climate-conscious practices both in the projects it delivers and in the way it operates locally. Its Kuala Lumpur office was recently awarded a National Energy Award by the Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change, recognizing its achievements in energy efficiency. On a global stage, the Malaysian team is contributing to the all-electric GranMorgu FPSO project in Suriname, designed to minimize greenhouse gas emissions in offshore energy production. Locally, projects such as Kedah’s low-emission melamine plant illustrate how the company is bringing advanced solutions to Malaysia’s energy transition.

Technip Energies’ decades-long presence in Malaysia demonstrates that its role goes far beyond project delivery. It is actively shaping Malaysia’s future by nurturing talent, transferring expertise, and embedding sustainability into every layer of its operations. As the country advances toward its energy transition and industrial goals, the company’s initiatives reflect a strong and enduring partnership, one rooted in shared progress and sustainable growth.
