KUALA LUMPUR: Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) will rephase some work being planned at the Refinery and Petrochemicals Integrated Development (Rapid) project in Pengerang, Johor, to lower the project’s cost.

The revised deadline to complete the massive project, the third time it has been done since Rapid was launched in May 2012, has now been pushed to the middle of 2019.
