Petrovietnam subsidiary PV Gas has reaffirmed its “Dare to think, dare to act” motto as it navigates a challenging transitional period that also presents growth opportunities.
The reaffirmation was made during a celebration of its 34th anniversary (September 20, 1990 - September 20, 2024), which highlighted significant achievements that have underscored robust growth of Vietnam’s gas industry.
Company leaders remarked that the transitional period it has entered was a “pivotal moment” that PV Gas will tackle with a spirit of innovation and collaboration, guided by its “One team, one goal” approach.
PV Gas will capitalize on emerging opportunities and lay the foundation for even more sustainable and dynamic growth in the future, the leaders asserted.

They encouraged staff to help stabilize the lives of those impacted, either by directly offering support or by scanning a QR code linked to a donation box in the hall.
A short film titled “LNG – green energy journey” was screened at the solemn ceremony, accompanied by melodies that evoked the rhythm of dedicated labor.
The significant milestone of transporting LNG to the north by rail and successfully completing a strategy of energy product integration nationwide was highlighted at the event.
Its recent achievements serve as a critical foundation for PV Gas to further develop its gas product value chain, enhancing its ability to meet diverse needs of the market, executives said

Overcoming numerous challenges, PV Gas has consistently excelled in fulfilling the tasks assigned by the Party, the State, and parent firm Petrovietnam.
Phong reaffirmed that with its vision and pioneering role in the Vietnamese gas sector, the company will relentlessly pursue its “Green Energy Journey.”
He said PV Gas would continue focusing on promoting investment in and trading of LNG, positioning it as a new growth engine.
The company has also begun exploring viable ways for producing and blending zero-emission gas products, contributing to the country’s green transition and the government’s pledge of net-zero emissions by 2050 made at the COP26 summit.
Both executives and other employees are determined to abide by the motto of “dare to think, dare to act” as they turn the firm’s strategic goals into reality, demonstrating dynamism, flexibility, and adaptability to market trends, Phong said.
He expressed confidence of the PV Gas board that with decisive leadership and synchronized and efficient operations, the company will continue to overcome challenges, seize opportunities and successfully fulfil its plans for 2024 and beyond.
“PV Gas remains committed to carrying forward the proud legacy and mission of previous generations,” he said.
With all employees upholding the proud tradition of their units and working hand-in-hand, PV Gas will emerge as an even stronger entity, worthy of the trust of the Party, the State, Petrovietnam, and the aspirations of previous generations, he added.
