ENERGY Secretary Sharon S. Garin underscored President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s commitment to long-term energy security during a Malacañang press conference on July 15, 2025.
Garin emphasized that the President’s focus extends beyond immediate energy needs, encompassing a comprehensive strategy for the country’s long-term energy requirements.
The successful renewal of the Malampaya gas field contract and the swift advancement of Phase 4 drilling were cited as prime examples of this forward-thinking approach.
The successful renewal and rapid progress on Malampaya Phase 4, according to Garin, directly reflect the President’s strategic vision.
This initiative not only addresses current energy demands but also lays a solid foundation for future energy security.
The continued operation of the Malampaya gas field is crucial for maintaining a stable and reliable energy supply, supporting economic growth, and ensuring the country’s energy independence. The government’s commitment to Malampaya underscores its dedication to securing the nation’s energy future.
