This report presents aresearch ofa prototype methodology to assess the security of
chemical facilities within the Malaysia. The Vulnerability Assessment (VA) do identifies
andassesses potential security threats, risks, and vulnerabilities and guides the chemical
facility industry in making security improvements. The National Institute of Justice

Department ofEnergy's Sandia National Laboratories. Sandia National Laboratories
employees are recognized experts in security andcounterterrorism andhaveextensive
experience inthe protection ofnuclear weapons and radiological materials for the process
plant The objectives of theproject areto study thevulnerability assessment framework
and dothe implementation by doing a case study inPETRONAS operation unit. Inthis
project, the Vulnerability Assessment Methodology (VAM) by Sandia National
Laboratories is used asguidance to implement vulnerability assessment in PETRONAS
plantprocess. The challenge in this project is dothecase study in one of theOPU in
which involved collecting theplantdata process
