GLOBAL ENERGY THREAT LOOMS
What Should Bangladesh Do?
Bangladesh faces its own energy crisis, particularly in the supply of primary fuels. Historically reliant on domestic natural gas, it has attempted to diversify through coal and liquid fuels, but with mixed results. Bangladesh has yet to make decisive progress in coal extraction or in exploring its full offshore and onshore petroleum potential. Geographically, the country has logistical limitations for fuel imports. Its proven natural gas reserves are rapidly depleting. Against a demand of 4,200 MMCFD (million cubic feet per day), Petrobangla can supply only 2,800 MMCFD—and that too by importing 1,000 MMCFD in LNG. Supply disruptions are frequent due to the operational challenges of floating storage and regasification units (FSRUs) in the Bay of Bengal. At times, Petrobangla lacks the foreign currency to purchase LNG on the global market.
