Malampaya Phase IV
Malampaya is a national government project under the supervision and control of the Department of Energy. Since 2002,
The Malampaya Project has supplied natural gas for power generation and has helped to ensure a reliable and secure power supply for Luzon.
Prime Energy will continue to power Philippine progress by ensuring safe and reliable operations and sustained social investment.
The SC 38 consortium led by Prime Energy supports the Malampaya Foundation Inc. and the Mindoro Biodiversity Conservation and Foundation Inc., which have benefited communities in Palawan, Mindoro, and Batangas for over two decades.

WHAT IS NATURAL GAS?
Dubbed as the best fuel complement to intermittent renewable energy, natural gas is composed of hydrocarbons found deep underground, or extracted through driven wells. It is formed beneath the earth’s surface over millions of years by the decomposition of organic matter, in much the same way that oil and coal are formed. Natural gas is 85-90% methane, with varying amounts of ethane, propane, butane, and other hydrocarbon compounds. Some condensate and oil will always be associated with the gas. In its natural state, the gas is colorless, odorless, and lighter than air.
