He also highlighted how i-Usahawan is a promising avenue for Brunei LNG to collaborate with service vendors, fostering In-Country Value for youth in industry experience, new markets for SMEs, allowing Brunei LNG to support local talent and building a skilled workforce for the nation.
CEO and owner of Pixelated Enterprise Mohamad Izzudddin Haji Md Hussin in his speech spoke about overcoming challenges in the industry and underscored the value of providing services that align with the Brunei Digital Masterplan, as well as supporting Brunei Darusalam’s journey towards a diversified national economy.

The i-Usahawan programme is a flagship initiative by the Department of Energy, launched by His Majesty on 1 August 2018, in which low-risk contracts across various quadrants are explored under the programme.
The i-Usahawan contract between Brunei LNG and Pixelated Enterprise marks the first contract to be awarded under a highly specialised quadrant, i.e. on a contract of Document Scanning and Digitisation. The contract offers the vendor a chance to implement digitisation methods and supports Brunei LNG’s commitment to being more sustainable and efficient, through modern, automated technology.
The contract also serves as an opportunity to create a safe and nurturing working environment for individuals with specialised needs, under the banner of Brunei LNG’s EmployAbility Enabled programme.
The ceremony was attended by Head of Energy Manpower Division and Energy in In-Country Value Division, Department of Energy (DOE), Hajah Noorul Farizalina binti Abdul Karim, representatives from DOE, Darussalam Enterprise as well as representatives of the Brunei LNG Leadership team and staff members.
