 What is NGV?

 Stands For Natural Gas for Vehicles.

 Used As Fuel For Vehicles In Some

Countries For More Than 50 Years.

 More Than 7 Million Vehicles Worldwide Using NGV As

Fuel.

 Same As Natural Gas Supplied To Power Stations,

Industries, Commercial Establishments And Households.

 Compressed And Stored At 3000 Psig Onboard Vehicles.

Also Known As Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).
MOTIVATION FOR NGV USE
IN MALAYSIA
Motivation for NGV use in Malaysia

Concern for An alternative

Environment to traditional
liquid fuel
 Malaysian Natural Gas Reserves

• National Natural Gas Reserves as of 1 Januari 2004 = 87.0 trillion

standard cubic feet (tscf). (34 years)

• National oil reserves = 4.84 billion barrel (18 years)

 NGV – the alternative fuel

 Reduce dependency on 3%
traditional fuel 9%
0%

 Diversify the use of natural gas

other than for power sector
and industrial use

country and to serve as a launching pad for a nationwide programme
 1 Mother station, 5 Daughter stations and 1 Conventional station
 930 bi-fuel vehicles (i.e. both petrol & NGV) & field demo/testing of one
Monofuel City Bus (1993)
 MS 1204 - Standard for construction of NGV station
 MS 1096 – Standard for installation of NGV Kit and cylinder

Program
(1986-1988) Program
(1995-present)
(1991-1994)

• Incorporation of PETRONAS NGV Sdn. Bhd. on 14 February 1995 to

spearhead promotion and development of NGV in Malaysia
• May 2006, directive from the government for PETRONAS to build 200
NGV stations nationwide by 2008.
• As a result, NGV business was transferred to PDB effective from 1st July
2006.
 Directive From The Government

The government has requested for PETRONAS to build 200 NGV stations
nationwide by 2008

Implications

• Double the initial plan of having a total of 100 NGV stations by FY07/08

• Leveraging on existing PSS to expedite the implementation subject to

readiness of existing PSS

• Limited gas pipeline coverage will resort to mother/daughter concept (higher

investment and impact on ROI)

• Limited space at PSS will resort to building more standalone stations that
require the acquisition of new land (time and cost factors to be considered)

 In The News Utusan Malaysia
1 Dis’05: NGV Naik 13 Sen Seliter

NGV naik 13 sen seliter

KUALA LUMPUR 1 Dis. - Petronas hari ini mengumumkan bahawa harga gas asli untuk
kenderaan (NGV) di stesen-stesen servisnya telah diselaraskan kepada 81 sen seliter daripada
68 sen seliter sebelumnya, berkuat kuasa hari ini,

Pelarasan sebanyak 13 sen itu telah diluluskan bulan lepas oleh Kementerian Perdagangan
Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna, katanya dalam satu kenyataan hari ini.

Petronas berkata, pada 81 sen seliter, perbezaan harga NGV kini adalah 50 peratus daripada
harga gasolin.

Ini adalah seiring dengan kelulusan terdahulu kerajaan yang harga NGV sepatutnya berada
pada 50 peratus berbanding harga gasolin, yang pada masa ini harga runcitnya 162 sen seliter,
katanya.

Petronas, menerusi anak syarikat Petronas NGV Sdn. Bhd., telah memaklumkan kepada semua
persatuan dan syarikat teksi berhubung pelarasan harga itu.

Notis-notis juga telah dihantar ke semua stesen servis Petronas yang menjual NGV kepada
para pengguna. - Bernama
 PETRONAS Tarik Balik Kenaikan Harga

KUALA LUMPUR,(BERNAMA) 2 Dis. - Petronas hari ini telah menarik balik keputusan menaikkan
harga gas asli untuk kenderaan (NGV) berkuat kuasa mulai esok, kata Kementerian
Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna, di sini, hari ini.

Kementerian itu dalam satu kenyataan di sini, hari ini, berkata pihaknya telah menasihatkan
Petronas NGV supaya menangguhkan keputusan menaikkan harga runcit NGV.

Ia adalah selaras dengan pengumuman Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi
baru-baru ini yang tidak akan menaikkan harga produk petroleum sehingga 31 Dis bagi
mengurangkan beban ke atas pemilik kenderaan khususnya dan pengguna amnya.

Semalam, Petronas telah mengumumkan bahawa harga NGV yang dijual di stesen-stesen
minyak telah dinaikkan kepada 81 sen seliter daripada 68 sen sebelum ini.

Syarikat itu berkata pada 81 sen seliter, perbezaan harga NGV kini adalah 50 peratus daripada
harga gasolin.

Ini, adalah seiring dengan kelulusan terdahulu kerajaan yang harga NGV sepatutnya berada
pada 50 peratus berbanding harga gasolin yang pada masa ini harga runcitnya 162 seliter, kata
Petronas.
 Utusan Malaysia, 10 October 2005:
Syarikat Minyak Tidak Minat Buka Stesen

PARLIMEN, KUALA LUMPUR 10 Okt. - Syarikat-syarikat minyak di negara ini kecuali

Petronas tidak berminat untuk membuka stesen gas asli (NGV) untuk kenderaan kerana
kosnya yang terlalu tinggi.

Setiausaha Parlimen di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Mohd. Johari Baharom

memberitahu, keengganan syarikat-syarikat minyak itu kerana mereka perlu membuat
pelaburan yang tinggi selain terpaksa memberikan subsidi.

``Ini menyebabkan syarikat-syarikat itu enggan membuka stesen NGV ,'' katanya pada
sidang Dewan Rakyat di sini hari ini.

Mohd. Johari menjawab soalan tambahan Dr. Tan Seng Giew (DAP-Kepong) yang meminta
kerajaan membuat program bagi memastikan syarikat-syarikat minyak membina stesen
NGV yang pada masa ini terlalu sedikit.

Mohd. Johari menegaskan, kerajaan tidak pernah menghalang mana-mana syarikat untuk
membina stesen NGV bagaimanapun tidak banyak syarikat yang berminat untuk
menjalankan perniagaan tersebut.
