BMI View: Production growth is set to outpace consumption growth in the Malaysian oil sector as the removal of fuel subsidies and a move towards coal-fired power plants reduce domestic demand for oil. Production will continue to be strong given our positive demand forecasts for oil within the Asian region. The trend is reversed in gas, where consumption growth will outpace domestic production growth. Malaysia's gas prices continue to be the lowest in South East Asia, and gas remains the preferred energy fuel by power companies.

The main trends and developments we highlight for Malaysia's oil and gas sector are:

* On January 18, Petronas announced that it had made its first onshore oil and gas discovery after 24 years. The

discovery was made at the Adong Kecil West-1 well and drill-stem tests reflected flow rates of approximately 440b/d and 11.5mn cft daily. The well was drilled to a depth of 3,170m and encountered 349m of net hydrocarbon thickness. While specifics were not mentioned, Petronas announced that there existed some upside potential for hydrocarbon accumulation in the deeper sections of the well.
* Petronas has announced a plan to raise capital expenditures to US$59bn over the next five years as it aims to increase domestic production. With much of the funds earmarked to support increased exploration and production, we believe this additional investment could pose an upside risk to our outlook for oil and gas production. However, we highlight the financial and political challenges facing Petronas as factors that could diminish the impact of this rise in capex.
* Gas supply from the Malaysia-Thailand joint development area and projects such as ExxonMobil's Bintang field is likely to mean continuing growth in Malaysia's gas volumes and exports. We expect gas production to reach 76.4bn cubic metres (bcm) by 2017, an annual average growth rate of 3.3% from 2012 levels. Given substantial gas subsidies, consumption is set to grow faster at an annual average rate of 4.7% from 36.8bcm in 2013 to 46.0bcm in 2017.
* Malaysia's oil export revenues and gas export revenues are set to reach US$8.5bn and US$14.1bn by 2017 respectively.
