Malaysian energy storage services provider Dialog Group is expanding its Pengerang oil storage facility in the southern peninsular state of Johor, as it seeks to tap growth in oil, gas and petrochemicals trade around the Malacca Straits.

Dialog will break ground on a project this week, which will be the third phase of development at Pengerang, to build oil products storage tanks that will be ready by mid-2021, executive deputy chairperson Chan Yew Kai said in an interview.
