From the
CEO’s Desk
Greetings to everyone in INSTEP. We are approaching the
end of 2015 and it has indeed been a challenging year for all
of us with the oil and gas prices continuing to spiral
downwards.
With an inspiring workforce in INSTEP, we have done
exceptionally well and accomplished many achievements
worth applauding. Financially, our bottom-line numbers are
impressive with a notable profit. In the early part of the
year, PTTSB organization structure was realigned to make it
more effective and efficient in facing challenging business
outlook and uncertain economics headwinds.
On the international front, a collaboration was sealed with
NILEPET in South Sudan and another is currently on-going
with Victorian TAFE institutions in Australia. In addition, we
succeeded in getting new external clients comprising 4
international and 7 domestic clients. We presented papers at
international conferences: Getenergy Global 2015 Event in
London, International Mining and Resource Conference in
Melbourne, UNESCO TVET Conference in Kuala Lumpur and
World TVET Conference in Kuching.
Our PTP-1 programme received accreditations from BTEC and OPITO, two awarding
bodies from the UK. INSTEP was conferred the world’s first OPITO-approved oil and gas
technical qualification centre for the maintenance, production and process trades. We
also won the prestigious OPITO Employers Award at Abu Dhabi.
INSTEP was also a proud recipient of the PEARSON Centre of Excellence and BTEC
Outstanding Centre of Excellence awards. To add another feather to our cap, 2 of our
PTP-1 learners received the 2014 PEARSON Medallion Award. For the first time, 74
instructors are BTEC certified and 3 others were certified by Australian Standards
(Cert IV).

CEO’s Desk
In INSTEP, we continually improve learning and support facilities to enhance the quality
and learning experience. We have put in place some advanced learning facilities such as
the LMTS, POTS, CBT & DCS as well as the HSE Virtual Reality.
The resource centre was transformed into a learning hub with high speed WiFi installed.
In keeping pace with the advancement of technology, PTP-1 learners are provided with
tablets to replace the hardcopy modules. Besides providing easy and interactive learning, this initiave also reduces cost.
As part of the improvement of campus infrastructure, upgrading of the learners’
accommodation and construction of new sport facilities have taken place. I sincerely
thank each and every one of you for INSTEP’s sterling performance. Syabas!
Despite the uncertain future ahead for the oil and gas industry, let us all work together
for quantum leap improvements at all levels. In order to weather the storm we must adjust our sails, as change is vital for our organization sustainability. Life is not about
waiting for the storm to pass, it is about learning to dance in the rain.
We thank the PTTSB Board for their continuous guidance and good support which has
been instrumental in our achievements. I wish everyone a very Happy New Year and
may 2016 bring out the best in all of us.

its business and its people.

world’s first OPITO-approved oil and gas technical qualification centre. INSTEP received
OPITO accreditation for maintenance practice including Electrical, Mechanical and

A moment with Pn Liza Mustapha
.: PTTSB Board Member :.
Despite being a PTTSB Board Member for almost 4 years , most INSTEP staff have yet
had the opportunity to chat and get up-close and personal with this warm, gentle but
firm Finance lady.
Puan Liza Mustapha began her career in PETRONAS in 1995 as an Executive
Accountant PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd for a period of 10 years. Subsequently, she
was transferred to PETRONAS Gas Berhad for a period of 6 years and then served at
Group Treasury for a period of 2 years. Puan Liza is currently the Head of Upstream
Finance , a position she has held since 2013. Having served PETRONAS for 20 years
Puan Liza, has had her fair share of ups and downs. Radiance End of FY2015
publication is privileged to have been able to ‘steal’ some time off her hectic schedule
to share her outlook for FY2016.

1.
Can you describe your illustrious journey in PETRONAS?
Enriching. Along the way, I have not only learnt from my different work
experiences and from the wise leaders of the organization, I have also made
lifelong friends in PETRONAS.
2.
What are your most memorable experiences?
One of the exciting experiences I had was when I was assigned for six months to a
company-level strategic initiative known as the E&P Strategy Study (EPSS) back in
the year 2001. I was then an executive in PCSB Finance and was tasked to lead
the support function stream within the Initiative. It was exciting as for the first
time, I had the opportunity to understand and appreciate areas beyond finance,
working with a mixed group of juniors like myself, experienced leaders and also
external consultants. I believe this greatly helped broaden my outlook in the
organization and at the same time afforded me the opportunity to experience
first-hand how my bosses and the other leaders in the organization think and make
decisions. I had a very supportive boss who was willing to take a chance on me
while providing me with the necessary guidance. For that, I will always be grateful.
I guess a negative experience worth sharing is when things became very stressful
on both the work-front and the home-front. I felt at the time that perhaps I had
reached a fork whereby I had to make a choice—work or family. The natural
choice would be my family and I was already beginning to draft my resignation
letter. However, after further counselling from my husband, parents and best
friend, I acknowledged that my decision to leave work was very much driven by
my emotional side, rather than my logical side. I then realized that a more
effective decision would be to tackle the problem at hand
logically by seeking
alternative approaches to problem management both at work and at home. Once
the root cause was identified and dealt with, I felt more in control of things and
thus decided to stay on. I was able to find a happy medium.
3.
How do you juggle work-life balance?
Understanding my stakeholders’ expectations, being aware of the trade-offs and
implications that one action has on the other and by constant communication. I
have to say that being a working wife and mother, my husband has been very
supportive and understanding of my role at work.

4. How do you foresee INSTEP thriving through the challenging time we
are in at the present?
“Thriving” is a rather big word to use, especially if one’s business is very
dependent on the oil and gas industry, which is the case for INSTEP. In times of
low oil price coupled with stubborn cost structures, typically it is the
manpower-related expenses that become the natural focus to manage the
bottom-line. In this regard, INSTEP needs to put forth a value proposition that is
relevant and value-adding to the oil and gas business regardless of the market
environment.
In addition, like the oil and gas business, INSTEP will also need to figure out new
ways of doing things e.g. how to expand the business whilst still keeping cost
structure efficient and to form smart partnerships with current and potential
stakeholders.
5. What is your advice to all INSTEP members generally, and INSTEP
women staff particularly, and your expectations of them?
Firstly, I believe that in today’s employment landscape, generally there is not
much difference in how one needs to be, in order to be successful in his/her
career; in other words, regardless of gender the normal advice applies i.e. the
need to work hard, persevere, be responsible and to be guided by PETRONAS
values in whatever we do. The team in INSTEP has to continuously have its hand
on the pulse of the market environment, both in the technical education, as well
as in the oil and gas space.
Having said that, from personal experience, I believe that working women need to
recognize who make up their stakeholders (i.e. family, colleagues, friends, etc.),
understand their different needs and expectations and the trade-offs that her
actions/choices will result in. Planning ahead helps, as does maintaining good
communication at work and at home in order to better manage expectations.

885 more job-ready technicians for PETRONAS graduated!
In 2015, 885 more PTP-1 trainees graduated from their respected fields; Electrical,

Kuching, Sarawak (3 October) and Kota Kinabalu, Sabah (31 October). The
convocation ceremony in Sabah also witnessed 25 trainees graduating from Kimanis
