and it stated the globalization effort in 1994. PETRONAS global operation had extended to
Africa countries, Confederate Independence of Soviet Union (CIS), Middle East and Asia
Pacific countries. Some of the Africa countries included Sudan, South Africa (downstream
Engen), Libya and Algeria. The investments in CIS were Turkmenistan and Kazarkstan. The
investment in Middle East countries included Iran, Syria and Iraq. In the Asia Pacific, the
oversea portfolios extended to Vietnam, Mynmar, China and Australia (both Upstream and
downstream).
The oversea upstream activities were undertaken by its subsidiary PETRONAS Carigali Sdn
Bhd (PCSB) through its oversea subsidiary companies. When PETRONAS started its
globalization efforts, the environmental factors were very much favorable. However, in 1 997

PETRONAS globalization efforts. Some of these factors were the regional and world
economic turmoil, regional financial and currency devaluation, slower economic growth, low
demand of oil and gas, lower oil and gas price and lower prospectivity and commerciality of
the oil and gas projects.

portfolios and made recommendation relating to these strategic issues. This case study
analyzed the environmental factors influencing the company future direction through the used

This study assessed analytically, through the used of SPACE, the future company direction
