Putra Heights gas fire: Petronas Gas Bhd estimates earliest gas restoration by 1 July 2025

The O&G major also shared that as a result of the restoration, gas supply capacity from the north to the northern sector, Bestari Jaya, Meru and Kapar has increased.

Petronas Gas Bhd (PGB) announced on 16 April 2025 that it estimates that gas restoration in Putra Heights, Subang Jaya, could commence as early as 1 July 2025, subjective to the outcome of ongoing investigations, regulatory approvals, and actual progress on site. 

Citing an article by BernamaBiz, PGB is currently collaborating with the authorities, including the Department of Occupational Safety and Health, the Fire and Rescue Department, and the Royal Malaysian Police, in the investigation of the incident to facilitate the rectification and remedial works on the pipeline.

"This includes sheet piling for soil stabilisation, water movement management, and pipeline excavation,” it said.

"As a result, gas supply capacity from the north to the northern sector, Bestari Jaya, Meru and Kapar has increased, with additional supply from the Trans Thailand-Malaysia gas pipeline system,” the oil & gas company stated, emphasising that its top priority remains the safety and wellbeing of the affected communities, while ensuring continuous access to gas supply.

This comes after the recent gas pipe fire that occurred in the area on 1 April 2025.  

Currently, Serdang City Gate has resumed operations, resulting in more stable supply access to the Klang Valley area.
