15MAR2019 - NEWS - Bangladesh extends deadline by three months for companies to submit expressions of interest to build the country’s first onshore LNG terminal

Bangladesh will extend the deadline by three months for companies to submit expressions of interest (EOI) to build the country’s first onshore liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal. Rupantarita Prakritik Gas Co, the part of state-owned energy company Petrobangla that oversees LNG supplies, on Jan. 3 requested interest from potential terminal developers for a land-based LNG regasification terminal at Matarbari in the Cox’s Bazar district of southern Bangladesh. The initial EOIs were supposed to be due by March 20 but the companies hoping to take part asked for more time. The EOI is for the design, engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of a land-based terminal that can handle 7.5 million tonnes per year of LNG, including receiving, unloading, storage and re-gasification facilities.
