To secure the future of Brunei Darussalam’s energy sector, the EDPMO has set 3 Strategic Goals to
propel the energy sector forward and realise the National Vision:
Strategic Goal 1 – Strengthen and Grow Oil and Gas Upstream and Downstream Activities
Strategic Goal 2 – Ensure Safe, Secure, Reliable and Efficient Supply and Use of Energy
Strategic Goal 3 – Maximise Economic Spin-off from Energy Industry – Boost Local Content and Secure High Participation of Local Workforce
Strategic Goal 2 encompasses considerations for energy efficiency and renewable energy geneation. Specifically, the report explains the following.
The oil and gas industry, is classed as a major hazards industry. With significant operations located both onshore and offshore, the key focus of the national safety and health policy is to continuously improve safety and health standards in the entire supply chain of this sector. Due to aging infrastructure, a key focus area for the oil and gas industry is asset integrity. Maintaining asset integrity, is not only a key enabler to achieving good safety performance, it also plays a very important role in maximising the country’s oil and gas production.
