Bhola gas to be supplied outside district via pipeline

The government has decided to utilize unused gas from Bhola. The gas will be connected to the national gas transmission line through a pipeline from Bhola via Barishal to Khulna, which will increase the country's gas supply.

According to the Energy Division, bringing gas via cylinders or ISO tanks was found to be costly and impractical, making the pipeline construction the most effective solution. The Prime Minister recently gave consent to this. The construction of around 201 kilometers of pipelines from Bhola to Barishal and Barishal to Khulna is estimated to cost around four and a half thousand crore taka.

Petrobangla stated that activities to increase gas production in Bhola's three gas fields are currently ongoing. Alongside meeting local demand, this gas will be supplied to the national pipeline.
