In accordance with the investment plan, PTTEP expects its average petroleum sales volume from existing projects between 2026–2030, per the details below:

“PTTEP targets an average petroleum sales volume of 556,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2026, representing an increase of approximately 8%. This growth reflects strong momentum from our operational expansion in Thailand and overseas this year, which has already translated into higher sales volume and revenue, and will continue to support our performance into 2026 and beyond. Key contributors include our investment in the Malaysia–Thailand Joint Development Area A18 Project, the additional participating interest in the Sinphuhorm Project, investment in the Algeria Touat Project and increased natural gas production from the Arthit Project. Over the next five years, the company expects to commence petroleum production from multiple international projects in Malaysia, Algeria and the Middle East, further strengthening petroleum sales volume and supporting growth in line with the company’s strategic plan,” Mr. Montri said.
