Gas Malaysia has deployed the first LOOP graphene production system in the Asia Pacific region using technology developed by United Kingdom-based Levidian. The system has been installed within Gas Malaysia’s Natural Gas Distribution System and is designed to convert methane into graphene while simultaneously producing hydrogen-rich gas for cleaner energy applications.
The deployment follows a memorandum of understanding signed between Gas Malaysia and Levidian in June 2025. Under a new agreement, both companies will collaborate exclusively across Malaysia and the ASEAN region to support the phased rollout of LOOP systems. The technology is intended to utilise existing gas infrastructure to produce advanced materials and lower-carbon energy outputs.
The initiative forms part of Gas Malaysia’s GM32 Strategy, a 10-year roadmap focused on cleaner energy solutions and advanced materials development to support the country’s energy transition agenda. The project also marks a significant step in Levidian’s expansion in Southeast Asia while supporting the development of a regional graphene supply chain and decarbonisation-focused energy infrastructure.
