Singapore-based Oiltek International Limited has announced a significant partnership with BioSeaga Group of Brunei to develop a $350 million Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production facility in Sabah, Malaysia. The project intends to produce approximately 300 tons of SAF daily, supporting Malaysia's green energy and food security initiatives.
Oiltek's subsidiary, Oiltek Sdn. Bhd., has entered into an agreement to serve as the exclusive contractor for the plant's construction, including pre-treatment, production facilities, tank farm, and transportation infrastructure. This project leverages Oiltek's extensive experience in engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning across renewable fuel sectors and aims to position Sabah as a regional hub for fuel blending and export.
According to company statements, the collaboration underscores regional commitments to renewable energy and sustainable fuel development. BioSeaga emphasizes its focus on food security and renewable project development across Southeast Asia, with the SAF plant representing a key strategic initiative. The partnership also aligns with Malaysia's efforts, following Petronas’ advancement of locally blended sustainable aviation fuels, to foster a sustainable energy future for the region.
