to purchase the land for jetty and port to lower the project cost
and ensure the security of long term investment • POIC policy for them to build and operate the jetty vs project owner plan to self build and self operate the jetty to reduce cost • Lengthy negotiation period on Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) • Shortage of capable manpower and local contractors |
| What needs to be done? |
| • Project consortium needs to Resolve land purchase/lease
matters by Dec 2011 • Resolve jetty building and ownership matters between project consortium and POIC / Sabah Authorities by Dec 2011 • Project consortium needs to start the land works latest by Q1 2012 • MLNG needs to secure the LNG import supplies from international market by 2014 |
