The oil and gas industry is also potential for PICORP for the following reasons:

The oil and gas industry is a major polluter. The oil and gas industry produces a significant amount of pollution, including greenhouse gases, air pollutants, and water pollutants. This pollution can have a negative impact on the environment and on human health.
The oil and gas industry is under increasing pressure to reduce its environmental impact. Governments are enacting stricter regulations to reduce the environmental impact of the oil and gas industry, and this is creating demand for environmental services to help the industry comply with these regulations.
There is a growing demand for sustainable oil and gas production. Businesses are looking for ways to produce oil and gas in a more sustainable way, and this is creating demand for environmental services to help the industry develop and implement sustainable practices.
PICORP is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for environmental services in the oil and gas industry. The company has the experience, the expertise, and the commitment to innovation to provide its clients with the environmental services they need to reduce their environmental impact and to operate in a more sustainable way.

Some of PICORP's past and present oil and gas clients include:

Cheiron Energy Group: Cheiron Energy Group is an independent oil and gas exploration and production company with operations in Egypt, Romania, and the United States. PICORP has provided environmental services to Cheiron Energy Group for a number of years, including environmental impact assessment, monitoring and testing, and waste management.
Eni SpA: Eni SpA is an Italian multinational oil and gas company with operations in over 70 countries. PICORP has provided environmental services to Eni SpA for a number of years, including environmental impact assessment, monitoring and testing, and waste management.
Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd: Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd is a Malaysian oil and gas exploration and production company with operations in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Australia. PICORP has provided environmental services to Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd for a number of years, including environmental impact assessment, monitoring and testing, and waste management.
PICORP is committed to providing environmental services to the oil and gas industry that are both effective and sustainable. The company is working with its clients to develop and implement innovative environmental solutions that can help the industry to reduce its environmental impact and to operate in a more sustainable way.

Saudi Arabia and Indonesia are even more important than the Malaysian market for PICORP for the following reasons:

Large population: Both Saudi Arabia and Indonesia have a large population, which means that there is a large potential market for PICORP's environmental services. For example, Saudi Arabia has a population of over 34 million people, and Indonesia has a population of over 270 million people.
Rapid economic growth: Both Saudi Arabia and Indonesia are experiencing rapid economic growth, which is leading to increased demand for environmental services. For example, Saudi Arabia's GDP is growing at an average rate of 7% per year, and Indonesia's GDP is growing at an average rate of 5% per year.
Government focus on environmental protection: Both the Saudi Arabian and Indonesian governments are focused on environmental protection, which is creating demand for environmental services. For example, the Saudi Arabian government has set a goal of reducing its carbon emissions by 20% by 2030, and the Indonesian government has set a goal of reducing its deforestation rate.
Growing awareness of environmental issues: The public in both Saudi Arabia and Indonesia is becoming increasingly aware of environmental issues, which is driving demand for environmental services. For example, a recent survey found that 70% of Saudi Arabians are concerned about the environment, and a recent survey found that 80% of Indonesians are concerned about the environment.
PICORP is well-positioned to capitalize on the growth of the environmental market in Saudi Arabia and Indonesia. The company has the experience, the expertise, and the commitment to innovation to provide its clients with the environmental services they need to protect the environment and to thrive in the years to come.

In addition to the reasons mentioned above, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia are also important markets for PICORP because they are both strategic locations for the company. Saudi Arabia is a major oil producer, and Indonesia is a major timber producer. PICORP can use its expertise in environmental services to help these countries to develop their natural resources in a sustainable way.

PICORP is also targeting the Saudi Arabian and Indonesian markets because they are both relatively young markets for environmental services. This means that there is less competition in these markets, and PICORP has the opportunity to establish itself as a leading provider of environmental services

PICORP is potential in the environmental business for several reasons:

The company has a strong track record of providing quality environmental services. PICORP has been in business for over 20 years, and it has a proven track record of providing quality environmental services to a wide range of clients, including the government, private industry, and the non-profit sector.
The company has a team of experienced professionals. PICORP's team of professionals has a wealth of experience in the environmental field. They are experts in a wide range of environmental disciplines, including environmental consulting, monitoring and testing, wastewater treatment, water treatment, air quality monitoring, and food safety testing.
The company is committed to innovation. PICORP is constantly investing in new technologies and techniques to improve its environmental services. This commitment to innovation helps PICORP to stay ahead of the curve and to provide its clients with the most up-to-date environmental solutions.
The company is well-positioned to grow. PICORP is well-positioned to grow in the years to come. The company is expanding its operations into new markets, and it is developing new environmental services to meet the needs of its clients.
In addition to these factors, PICORP is also potential in the environmental business because of the following trends:

The growing awareness of environmental issues. The public is becoming increasingly aware of environmental issues, and this is driving demand for environmental services.
The increasing regulation of environmental matters. Governments are enacting stricter regulations to protect the environment, and this is creating demand for environmental services to help businesses comply with these regulations.
The growing demand for sustainable solutions. Businesses are looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact, and this is creating demand for sustainable environmental solutions.
PICORP is well-positioned to capitalize on these trends and to grow its business in the years to come. The company has the experience, the expertise, and the commitment to innovation to provide its clients with the environmental services they need to protect the environment and to thrive in the years to come.

The Malaysian government wants self-sufficient in the food industry to fulfil the needs of the country. Another gold pot for picorp.

Zaid Bin Abdullah was a young man with a dream. He wanted to start his own business and make a difference in the world. He had always been passionate about environmental protection, and he saw a need for a company that could provide innovative solutions to environmental problems.

In 1993, Zaid took the plunge and started his own company, Progressive Impact Corporation Berhad (PICORP). PICORP initially focused on environmental consultancy services, but it quickly expanded into a wide range of environmental solutions, including environmental monitoring, waste management, and pollution control.

Under Zaid's leadership, PICORP has grown to become one of the leading environmental solutions providers in Malaysia. The company has won numerous awards for its environmental work, including the Most Promising Entrepreneurship Award at the APEA Awards in 2013.

Zaid is a passionate advocate for environmental protection.

He is also a strong supporter of education and training in the environmental field.

Zaid is a true Malaysian success story. He is a visionary leader who has made significant contributions to the field of environmental protection. He is an inspiration to many and is a role model for young entrepreneurs.

One day, Zaid got a call from the government. They were looking for a company to help them with a major environmental project. The project involved building a new waste treatment plant for a large city. Zaid knew that this was a big opportunity for PICORP, but he also knew that it would be a challenge.

Zaid and his team worked tirelessly on the project. They had to overcome many challenges, but in the end, they were successful. The waste treatment plant was built on time and on budget, and it is now one of the most efficient and effective waste treatment plants in the country.

The success of this project helped to put PICORP on the map. The company was now recognized as a leading expert in environmental solutions. Zaid and his team continued to work on other major environmental projects, and PICORP continued to grow.

Today, PICORP is one of the largest and most successful environmental solutions providers in Malaysia. Zaid is a proud of what he and his team have accomplished. He knows that they have made a difference in the world, and he is committed to continuing to work on environmental protection for many years to come.

LABORATORY TESTING SERVICES

The laboratory testing services particularly in the food and pharmaceutical segment continue to generate signif- icant revenue for the group post COVID-19 pandemic due to higher demand for laboratory testing. Development in the regulatory landscape particularly in the Food Safety Act 1983, HALAL certification under JAKIM and their Foreign Certification Bodies, DOE’S Quality Act 1947 (“EQA 1974”), DOE’s Guided Self-Regulation 2017 and many others continue to be the key driver in the laboratory testing services business.

The Malaysian operations remain focused in existing businesses with continuous enhancement of its operational efficiency through effective cost management, enhance market penetration by improving engagement with clients, price competitiveness and turnaround time. In this regard, environment, food, pharmaceutical industrial and tribology services shall continue to be the main focus for ALS Malaysia in leveraging its strong brand reputation.
Apart from that, the Malaysian laboratory testing services also aim to expand its environmental hygiene monitoring services by process and method optimisation through usage of ALS Compass, RAPID methods and onsite kits for faster result. Moreover, the laboratory testing services aims to improve process digitisation as a competitive edge over other local labs to enable better transparency and traceability.

Indonesia operations aim towards expanding its Food Safety Analysis business, particularly the microbiology facility and a setup of the food chemistry laboratory in its headquarters in Sentul. Recovery of the Oil and Gas and Mining sector leads to increased spending for environmental compliance. The new requirement for RATA emission testing effective from 2019 creates new environmental testing business opportunities. However, the nationalisation policy of Indonesia’s oil and gas industry may lead us to embark on different approach to grow our business. Nevertheless, we believe that we can strive and secure new projects in this volatile industry.

Wow, already expanded into Brunei :)

In respect of our presence in Saudi Arabia, PICORP, through its subsidiary, Saudi ASMA will continue to provide the public health management i.e. surveillance services for the government agencies namely the municipalities in the area of integrated pest control through the operation and maintenance of the pest laboratory and monitoring of the key performance indicators (KPIs) of the pest control operations, providing an integrated pest management services for private sectors.

Saudi ASMA aims to work towards increasing the volume through the development of new products or services such as pursuing pest control consulting and providing chemical free or new technology of pest control solutions to private customers.

In addition, the recent collaboration between UEM Edgenta Berhad, South East Asia’s leading Asset Management and Infrastructure Solutions company and a subsidiary of PICORP in Saudi in April 2021, had marked the increasing opportunities to the Group in penetrating new markets as well as expanding the pest control services to other municipalities and private companies within Saudi Arabia.

We will also continue to expand our presence in Brunei through a business collaboration with Progressive Impact Technology (B) Sdn Bhd (“PITECH (B)”) to offer our services in respect of environmental services. To date, we have signed a Memorandum of Agreement with PITECH (B)”) to provide the environmental services in the realm of technical support, supply of manpower and equipment including the provision of site engineering services.

We believe the environmental industry that we operate in will remain challenging. In the long term, the economy will grow as such demand for these essential services will remain strong. Utilising our network, experience, know-how and technical capabilities, we are confident in securing more projects in these segments locally and abroad in the future.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ coming :)

The impending revision of Water Service Industrial Act as well as the Environmental Quality Act (EQA 1974) on the effluent standard for Palm Oil Mill Effluent may present further opportunities for us to grow our wastewater treatment business and to further promote our aims to be the one-stop solution centre for the wastewater treatment industry offering both solutions for the domestic as well as the industrial segments.

The Company will be continuously implementing necessary measures to grow its business amidst the uncertain economic environment. The top measure is to remain thriving through its major business segments which are Environmental Monitoring Consultancy & Services (EMCS) and lab testing services (LTS) in both Malaysia and Indonesia.

In Malaysia, EMCS will continue to concentrate on promoting its water and industrial water treatment solutions, venture into environmental training and equipment trading, and focus on environmental monitoring services for strategic clients.

In Saudi Arabia, leveraging on its local status as No. 1 Integrated Pest Management (IPM) company received from the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs (MOMRA), the company will continue to prioritise IPM in both public and private sector. This is a very significant mileage as it gives a strong advantage to the company to accelerate its market presence and growth.

On the other hand, PBT from Indonesia Operations had decreased to RM3.2 million from RM3.8 million in FY2021 due to expiry of project with Chevron and higher cost incurred during the year.

Even though the project has been transferred from Chevron to PT Pertamina, the new contract at a reduced scope for the mirroring contract for a period of one year ending August 2022 enabling ALS Indonesia to continue its services until August 2022.

On the other hand, higher revenue contribution from Malaysian operation was due to additional revenue generated from food and pharmaceutical sector in FY2022 as compared to FY2021.

Revenue Contribution from Malaysian Operations by Sub-Segment

Revenue Contribution by Geographical Breakdown
In terms of geographical breakdown, the overall decrease in revenue by 2% or RM1.7 million was attributed to the decrease in revenue from Indonesian operations by RM3.4 million which was offset by positive contribution from Saudi operations by RM1.7 million.

On the other hand, minimal changes were noted in terms of the geographical percentage composition whereby 68% (FY2021: 67%) of PICORP’s revenue for FY2022 was generated from the Malaysian operations, with equal share of 16% (FY2021: 19%) from Indonesian operations and 16% (FY2021: 14%) from Saudi operations.

The decrease in PICORP’s revenue for FY2022 to RM90.3 million from RM92.0 million for FY2021 was due to the completion of non-recurring projects and expiration of existing contract. However, the decline in revenue was compensated by an increase in revenue contribution from the local lab testing segment in respect of food pharma lab testing.

Apart from that, the three years’ contract awarded by Makkah Municipality to a wholly owned subsidiary of PICORP, Saudi ASMA Environmental Solutions LLC (“Saudi Asma”) on 3 June 2021 for the provision of pest control monitoring services in Makkah amounting to RM27.9 million has continue to contribute positively to the environmental segment.
