PETRONAS, Malaysia's State-owned energy group, will accelerate the expansion of its global liquefied natural gas (LNG) portfolio to support China's growing energy needs, as the world's second-largest economy deepens efforts to shift toward cleaner fuels and strengthen energy security, said a senior executive.

In 2024, PETRONAS exported 8 million metric tons of LNG to China, accounting for about 10 percent of the country's total LNG imports for the year, according to the Kuala Lumpur-headquartered company.
