Kuantan Port Welcomes Dialogue Delegates, Highlighting Infrastructure Supporting Malaysia’s CCS Aspirations

Following the Bridging Borders: Malaysia–Japan CCS Dialogue, Kuantan Port had the honour of hosting more than 40 delegates from various industry organisations for an official technical visit to the Port. The programme included a briefing on Kuantan Port’s ongoing development plans, operational capabilities and future-ready infrastructure, including initiatives that may support the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in line with Malaysia’s broader sustainability agenda.

Delegates were also taken on a guided site visit to both Kuantan Port 1 and Kuantan Port 2, providing firsthand exposure to the Port’s operational areas, terminal facilities, and expansion footprint. The visit enabled participants to understand better Kuantan Port’s role as a strategic east coast gateway with the capacity to support industrial clustering, logistics integration and potential carbon aggregation activities in support of the evolving CCS ecosystem.

As part of Malaysia’s strategic national infrastructure on the east coast, Kuantan Port remains committed to working alongside PETRONAS, government agencies and industry partners to support the nation’s CCS development and long-term low-carbon transition. The visit reflects the Port’s continued engagement with stakeholders and its readiness to contribute practical infrastructure solutions that strengthen Malaysia’s sustainable industrial growth and regional connectivity.
