Malaysia’s state-owned oil firm will reduce headcount by upward of 5,000 people, Petronas Chief Executive Officer Muhammad Taufik said in a briefing in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday. It will also freeze hiring until December 2026, he said. Petronas’ profits slid 32% in 2024, following a 21% drop in 2023. The challenges are slated to continue this year, in part due to a continued decline in Brent crude prices. - Bloomberg   This post has been edited by nelson969: Jun 7 2025, 07:46 PM
