Natural gas now represents about 70 per cent of Mubadala Energy’s overall production portfolio, with 2025 described by the company’s chief operating officer as a defining year for advancing its international expansion plans.
Adnan Bu Fateem said Mubadala Energy entered the US market during the year while also moving forward with several strategic natural gas projects across Southeast Asia, supporting a long-term strategy that balances global energy security with energy transition priorities.
He explained that natural gas remains a core pillar of the company’s portfolio, largely due to its comparatively lower emissions profile when measured against more carbon-intensive energy sources.
Bu Fateem added that Mubadala Energy’s investment approach centres on long-term assets designed to deliver stable returns across diverse geographies, with geographic diversification playing a key role in managing market volatility.
He noted that the company’s investment in the US-based Caturus natural gas and LNG portfolio provides exposure across the gas value chain within one of the world’s largest energy markets, complementing existing assets in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Russia and the US.
Commenting on operational progress, Bu Fateem said Mubadala Energy has made solid advances on the Tangkulo gas field project in Indonesia, while production at its flagship Pegaga project in Malaysia has remained stable.
He also highlighted that the company has reduced its Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 36.5 per cent, adding that Mubadala Energy’s community programmes have benefited more than one million people over the past decade.
