Kerteh, Terengganu

Petroleum Industry Complex, Kerteh (31 December 2006)


Kerteh (GPS: 4.50729, 103.44039) is a small town in Kemaman District, Terengganu. It is the base for oil production in the state. From Kerteh, the oil platforms off the coast are managed, along with the petrochemical industries and crude oil refining facilities in Paka. Kerteh Airport is built to support this industry, handling mostly helicopters and charter planes for the staff of Petronas, the national petroleum company.

There is nothing much for visitors to Kerteh, except perhaps the sight of the petroleum facilies. There is however a turtle sanctuary along the coast at Ma Daerah.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
