As of September 11, 2026, Petronas and the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC) signed an agreement establishing a framework for future LNG supply arrangements between the two parties. [1] The agreement is intended to provide greater flexibility for future LNG transactions while taking into account Japan’s energy security and Malaysia’s domestic supply needs. JOGMEC, which operates under Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), supports Japan’s access to stable energy and natural resource supplies. The agreement builds on Petronas’ more than four decades of LNG supply relationship with Japan and provides a framework for responding to future changes in LNG demand and supply conditions.
