KUALA LUMPUR: Pipes and fittings supplier Saliran Group Bhd has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Maoming Port Group Co Ltd and PCA Group Sdn Bhd to promote cross-border technical exchange and cooperation in the oil and gas sector.
Maoming Port is a Guangdong, China, based enterprise engaged in port logistics, supply-chain trading, petrochemical engineering, construction, and consulting services.
Meanwhile, Malaysia-based PCA is an industrial engineering company providing end-to-end solutions for industries including O&G, food and beverage, and telecommunications.
Under the collaboration, the parties will organise forums and seminars to share advancements in low-carbon refining, clean production, advanced petrochemical materials, smart factory technology, and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS).
In addition, the parties will explore opportunities to share and transform technological achievements through laboratory visits, pilot-scale technology demonstrations, joint research and development, as well as talent exchange and training programmes.
Saliran said the MOU provides for leveraging the parties' supply chains to integrate upstream and downstream O&G segments, collaborating on investment projects, and jointly participating in international standard-setting initiatives to enhance recognition in global markets.
"This collaboration with MPG and PCA represents an exciting step for Saliran as we seek to broaden our technical capabilities and deepen our involvement in the O&G industry, both domestically and abroad.
"By combining our strengths, we aim to not only enhance operational efficiencies but also explore new opportunities that will benefit all Parties and contribute to the sector's sustainable growth," said Saliran managing director Liaw Choon Wei in a statement.
