Gas Malaysia has deployed the first LOOP system in the Asia Pacific region, introducing graphene production and decarbonization technology developed by UK-based Levidian. The system has been installed within Gas Malaysia’s Natural Gas Distribution System (NGDS) and is designed to convert methane into graphene while producing hydrogen-rich gas for cleaner energy applications.
The deployment follows a memorandum of understanding signed by the two companies in June 2025. Under the new agreement, Gas Malaysia and Levidian will collaborate exclusively across Malaysia and the ASEAN region to support the phased rollout of LOOP systems.
Gas Malaysia president and group CEO Azli Mohamed said the project reflects the company’s focus on lower-carbon technologies and on creating value from existing gas infrastructure.
Levidian chief commercial officer Ian Hopkins said the deployment marks an important step in the company’s regional expansion and in building local graphene supply.
The collaboration aligns with Gas Malaysia’s GM32 Strategy, a 10-year roadmap centered on cleaner energy and advanced materials in support of Malaysia’s energy transition agenda.
