The building with Shell as its anchor tenant is a sustainable and energy efficient building, located centrally within Miri Times Square.
Noteworthy highlights of OSSM include Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations, 100 solar PV panels on the roof generating approximately 80,000KWH clean energy each year and a sophisticated rainwater harvesting system, which is used for irrigation of vegetation at the garden deck on level 1 and ground floor.
Adding to its allure, the building is also home to Sarawak’s very first Shell Café, which offers signature coffee blends and a wider variety of food, comprising delicious pastries, pastas, gourmet sausages and convenience wraps, which include meat-free options.
“Our state-of-the-art, sustainable building embodies our commitment to driving progress towards an energy efficient future,” shared Siti Sulaiman, Country Chair of Shell Malaysia and Vice President of Integrated Gas & Upstream Malaysia.
“This achievement is a testament to the unwavering support of our partners, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to each of them. With Shell’s rich heritage in Sarawak, we are excited to build on this legacy and continue our vital role in advancing Sarawak and Malaysia’s economic growth and energy transition from our new Upstream headquarters.” Siti Sulaiman presenting the Premier with a token of appreciation in the presence of other dignitaries.
OSSM features Low-Emissivity (Low-E) glass panels on its façade, which minimise infrared and ultraviolet light while maximising natural daylight.
This innovation not only provides the interiors with an abundance of light but also keeps the heat at bay, significantly optimising both lighting and air conditioning efficiency.
Additionally, OSSM is pioneering a first for Sarawak with its advanced floor destination elevator system. This smart technology allows passengers to pre-select their floor at a port before stepping into the elevator, streamlining travel and cutting down wait times during peak hours.
The event was also attended by senior members of the Sarawak Government, delegates from Malaysia Petroleum Management (MPM) PETRONAS and Petros.
