To-date, Progress Energy Canada Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of PETRONAS, is producing around 540 million standard cubic feet of gas per day to the domestic market, generating revenue of CA$261 million (approximately RM861 million) for the first two quarters in 2017.

In addition, PETRONAS has secured a third exploration block in Mexico, namely Block 6, in the recently concluded bid round. To-date, PETRONAS has accumulated a total of 5,491 sq kms of exploration acreages in the highly prospective Mexico offshore blocks.
