  • 5 years ago
Petronas has activated its Emergency Response Team as their Peninsular Malaysia Assets’ offshore facilities are experiencing high waves and strong winds as a result of tropical storm Pabuk.

It said the situation is currently under control and all personnel are safe.

"Petronas’ utmost priority and concern is the safety of all personnel.

"We are currently liaising with the relevant authorities and closely monitoring the situation," it said in a statement.

A video showing powerful winds accompanied by huge waves of tropical storm Pabuk smashing into an oil rig in Terengganu waters went viral on social media since yesterday.
