In December 2020, an incident of pipeline failure was reported at the Sabah-Sarawak Gas Pipeline (SSGP) right-of-way in Lawas, Sarawak, resulting in a loss of production capacity (LOPC).

The incident was initially suspected to have been triggered by a landslide. The objective of this project is to conduct an assessment to determine the possible root cause(s) of the failure.

This project involves a team of multidisciplinary experts from the fields of geology, geotechnics, geospatial analysis, and hydrology, who collaborated to investigate the incident and identify the underlying causes.
