Bangladesh Mineral Oil & Gas Corporation (BMOGC) was created through the Presidential
order #27 on March 26, 1972. The minerals operation of the corporation was segregated and
vested with a new organization, Bangladesh Mineral Development Corporation (BMEDC), on 27
September 1972, through the PO # 120. The reconstituted Bangladesh Oil & Gas Corporation
(BOGC) was short named Petrobangla through the ordinance # 15 of 22 August, 1974. On 13
November 1976, through the ordinance #88, the importation, refining and marketing of crude
and petroleum products and vested with newly formed Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation
(BPC).
BOGC and BMEDC were merged into a single entity,
Bangladesh Oil, Gas & Minerals Corporation (BOGMC), by the
Ordinance # 21 of 11 April 1985. In a partial modification of the
Ordinance by the Law 11 of February 1989, the corporation was
short named Petrobangla and given the authority to hold the
shares of the companies dealing in oil, gas & minerals
exploration and development.

Initial scattered exploration effort for oil and gas was undertaken by private ventures. The search
of oil and gas in the area constituting Bangladesh began in the later part of the 19th century
through some isolated geological mapping. The first serious attempt to find oil and gas was
undertaken in Sitakund in 1908 by the Indian Petroleum Prospecting Company, 18 years after the
first oil discovery in Digboi, Assam. During 1923-31 Burmah Oil Company (BOC) drilled two
shallow wells in Patharia. The wells were abandoned though there was a reported occurrence of
oil. A total of 6 exploratory wells were drilled, there was however no discovery and the Second
World War disrupted further activity.
The promulgation of Pakistan Petroleum Act in 1948 introduced formal activity and infused
interest of international oil companies in oil and gas exploration. The Standard Vacuum Oil
Company (STANVAC) of USA, Pakistan Petroleum Ltd. (PPL) - a Burmah Oil Company
affiliate and Pakistan Shell Oil Company (PSOC) took up concessions during early fifties and
carried out exploration till the end of sixties. These operations saw the drilling of 16 exploration
wells including the first offshore well and resulted in the discovery of 7 gas fields.
During this time Oil and Gas Development Corporation (OGDC) was established as the first
public sector national organization in 1961 and the root of exploration for oil and gas were firmly
set in the country. OGDC started to carriy out geological and geophysical survey including
gravity, magnetic and seismic, and drilled wells which soon saw success.
After the liberation of Bangladesh, exploration activities gathered pace both by the national and
international companies. The part of OGDC that was in operation in Bangladesh was reorganized
as Bangladesh Mineral Oil and Gas Corporation (Petrobangla) continued its exploration efforts
while the Bangladesh Petroleum Act was enacted in 1974 to facilitate international participation
under PSC. The offshore area of Bangladesh was divided in to 6 blocks, which were taken up by
Ashland, ARCO, BODC (Japex), Union Oil, Canadian Superior Oil and Ina Naftaplin under
production sharing contract. This phase of PSC ended with relinquishments by 1978. Since 1972
the operational mandate of Petrobangla have undergone modification several times. In 1974 oil
import, refining and marketing was segregated under Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation, while
the mineral operation, which was separate since 1972, was merged with oil and gas operation in
1985. Presently Bangladesh Oil Gas and Minerals Corporation short named Petrobangla operates
oil and gas exploration, development, transmission, distribution and conversion together with
development and marketing of minerals.
The logo of Petrobangla signifies its primary business of oil and gas
related operations. The blue and the red segments signifies the
energy emanation from gas and oil, while the overall circle signifies
the integration of the whole business. The stylized letters P and B
signifies Petrobangla.
P l a n n i n g
Petrobangla is responsible for overall corporate planning for the gas sector. The relevant specific companies
implement most of the investment plans but the final decision and approval authority lies with Petrobangla. This is
done to analyze the requirement of a particular project vis a vis its cost, scope and inter-relationship with other
similar projects by other group companies or companies operating upstream or down steam of it.
The national economic strategy and the role of energy sector embedded in it guide the corporate planning of
Petrobangla. Since Petrobangla is the supplier of national energy it is extremely important that major projects
undertaken by down stream consumers are incorporated in the gas plan with due diligence. In this respect, the major
guideline in the corporate planning is the long-term sector strategy, mid term 5-year plans and ongoing 3 year rolling
programs. The average gas demand forecast for the next three years, which constitute the bench mark for the mid
term planning, based on forecasts of sub groups of customer categories that show variable growth potential is as
follows. Historically, power has been and continues to be the dominant sub category.

To cater to the forecasted demand, Petrobangla has formulated a plan that includes the whole range of activity from
exploration to marketing, taking in to cognizance both the public sector and private sector operators. The forecasted
production scenario calls for expansion of gas production capability to about 1222.4 bcf annually by 2013-14 to
meet average demand. This will be complemented by increasing the Gas Supply System rapidly, Fast Track program
has taken by Petrobangla in addition to the existing system. Also,135 mmcfd gas could be added to the National
Grid by drilling of 05 development wells at Titas and Rashidpur Gas fields under Fast Track Program. Under this
Fast Track program 1823 mmcfd gas will be added to the National Gas Grid by the end of December,2015.
Simultaneously to cater the increasing gas demand of the country particularly at the Chittagong region necessary
steps have been taken to add about 500 mmcfd gas through import of LNG by 2012.

Petrobangla and its group of companies strictly adhere to the Health Safety and Environmental
aspects in all their operations. The Government of Bangladesh has enacted the
ENVIRINMENTAL PROTECTION ACT 1995, which is followed by all organizations in oil
and gas sector.
The safety record of the Petrobangla group is excellent.
Even though there is no formal system of recognition
within the group, like 1 million hours of incident free
operation, there have been no, even minor, accidents in
our operation so far.
Starting with seismic and drilling operation and down to
production, transmission and marketing there are no
incidence involving loss of life in the more than forty
years of operation. There is also no incidence of fire or
other major mechanical accidents in the operating
companies. As a matter of fact the operations of the
companies are almost ceaseless and smooth.
The operating installations are equipped to control any
foreseeable incident and are especially protected against
fire hazards. Safety audits are undertaken, sometimes
through international surveyors. Also, all of the gas
sector related installations are classified as Key Point Installations (KPI) which entails a strict
safety code and surveillance from the government.
In terms of environment, Petrobangla group actually represents the environmental protection of
the country by supplying 70% of the commercial energy in the form of clean natural gas. Our gas
is cleaner in the sense that there is no SOX and very insignificant NOX in it. In addition, by
acting as the pioneering entity to expand use of CNG as vehicle fuel, we are directly working to
improve the urban air quality.
Most of our installations are green both biologically and chemically, surrounded by green trees
and often with major water bodies. We participate with vigour in the annual tree planting
campaign rendering our plants and sites green and healthy.

Haripur in 1955 followed by Chhattak in 1959. PSOC was the most successful company and
discovered 5 gas fields. During this time Oil and Gas Development Corporation (OGDC) was
established in the national sector in 1961.They drilled wells in Jaldi and Semutang, discovering
gas in Semutang in 1970.
After the liberation of Bangladesh, Petrobangla was formed and in 1974 the Bangladesh
Petroleum Act was enacted. The offshore area of Bangladesh was divided in to 6 blocks, which
were taken up by Ashland, ARCO, BODC (Japex), Union Oil, Canadian Superior Oil and Ina
Naftaplin under Production Sharing Contract (PSC). These companies drilled 7 offshore wells
resulting in discovery of Kutubdia offshore gas field.
The 1980s saw accelerated exploration activities by Petrobangla, which
drilled 12 exploration wells and discovered 7 gas fields. Among these
Fenchuganj well remains the deepest drilled well in Bangladesh
(4977m). Meanwhile a new milestone was achieved when Petrobangla
discovered the first commercial oil pool in Sylhet-7 on December 23,
1986. After formation in 1989, BAPEX has continued exploration for
Petrobangla, and drilled 3 exploratory wells discovering gas in
Shahbazpur and Saldanadi.
In 1981 Shell Oil Company was awarded a PSC. Shell drilled the
Sitapahar and Salbanhat wells which were dry. In 1988 Scimitar
Exploration was awarded another PSC. They discovered Jalalabad gas
field. IDuring 1994-1997, eight blocks were awarded to six companies under PSC. Again during
2000-2001 four blocks were awarded to four companies. So far 13264 km 2D seismic, 1301
sq.km 3D seismic and 14 explroratory wells have been drilled in those twelve blocks. All these
exploratory activities led to discovery of four gas fields namely Moulavibazar, Sangu, Bibiyana
and Bangura-Lalmai. Currently all these four fields along with the previously discovered
Jalalabad gas fields are in production.
Even though exploration history for oil and gas goes back almost a century, exploration density
has remained very low. So far only about 75 exploration wells have been drilled, which resulted
in discovery of 25 gas fields of sizes ranging from more than 4 tcf to 25 bcf GIIP. This indicates
the extremely low exploration density but high success rate of 1 in three exploration wells.
Of the exploration wells, 17 are in the offshore with two discoveries and the rest 58 are on shore
with 23 discoveries. It is of great significance that out of the 58 onshore wells 47exploratory
wells were drilled in the eastern margin of the country with the discovery of 22 gas fields.
T r a n s m i s s i o n
The first gas transmission line of the country was constructed in 1960 to supply gas to a fertilizer plant from the first
gas field discovered in 1955. Over the last 40 years this single pipeline has grown in to
a major network comprising of about 1832 high pressure transmission line of 8 inch to
30 inch diameter operating at 960 psig, supported by about 1966 km of intermediate
pressure pipeline and about 13310 km of service pipelines. Till the year 2000, gas
network was limited to the eastern half of the country. This was due to the massive
Jamuna river, which separates the eastern and western part of the country. Since the
completion of the almost 9 km long Jamuna Multipurpose bridge, a 30 inch gas pipeline
has rode the bridge and reached the western part. A network of pipelines in the western
part in now starting to take shape. Some of the major milestones in gas transmission are

Mining became part of Petrobangla operation in 1985, when the erstwhile Bangladesh Mineral
Exploration & Development Corporation was merged with Petrobangla. Till date, major
mineable deposits of coal, limestone and granite has been discovered in Bangladesh. These are
often at a deeper depth than conventionally exploited elsewhere. However, lack of surface or
shallower deposits and overall competitiveness against import has encouraged development of
underground mines to exploit such resources.
At present two major mines are operated to extract about 1 million tons of coal and 1.65 million
tons of granite respectively from the Barapukuria Coal Mining Company Limited and
Maddhapara Granite Mining Company Ltd.

Petrobangla went in for Production Sharing Contracts back in 1974, immediately after its
incorporation as the national oil and gas organization. This initial PSC round was limited to the
Bangladesh offshore. There were seven blocks of which six were taken by Atlantic Richfield
(ARCO), Ashland Oil, Union Oil, Canadian Superior (CSO), BODC–a JNOC/JAPEX venture
and INA NAPTHAPALIN of the then Yugoslavia. These companies together conducted more
then 31,000 km of marine seismic and drilled 7 wells. Union Oil discovered gas in Kutubdia.
The next major round occurred in 1993, after the promulgation
of the National Energy Policy. This time the whole territory of
the country was divided into 23 blocks and both offshore and on
shore blocks were offered. This round is popularly known as
First Bidding round. This time 8 blocks were awarded to
Occidental (Blocks 12,13,14),
Cairn Energy (Blocks 15,16),
Okland/Rexwood (Blocks 17, 18)
and United Meridien (Block 22).
A Second Round of PSC award was held in 1997, under which a
number of contracts were signed by the year 2001. The major
blocks awarded this time were: block 9 to
TULLOW/CHEVRON/TEXACO/BAPEX; blocks 5 and 10 to
SHELL/CAIRN/BAPEX, and block 7 to UNOCAL/BAPEX.
Through two bidding rounds held in 1993 and 1997,10 Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs)
were signed with a number of International Oil Companies (IOCs) for 12 acreage blocks. Out of
these, 2 PSCs have already expired. Currently 8 PSCs are active in 10 acreage blocks.Beside
this,
offshore area of the country has been divided in to 28 new blocks and an International tender has
been floated by the Government in February 2008 to start exploration activities in offshore areas
under Production Sharing Contract. In response 7 IOCs have submitted bids for 15 blocks.
Evaluation of the bids has been completed and the report is awaiting Government's approval.
The operators under these PSCs conducted exploration of varying level with major activity
concentrated in some blocks. Occidental, Cairn, Okland and Tullow drilled 5, 6, 1 and 3
exploration wells respectively. The major events under PSC so far was discovery and subsequent
development of the offshore SANGU gas field, development of previously discovered
JALALABAD gas field, newly discovered Maulavibazar gas field, BIBIYANA gas field and
Bangura-Lalmai gas field. In the mean while, some changes in operatorship occurred. Blocks
12,13 and 14 were taken over by UNOCAL, major share and operatorship of blocks 15, 16 was
taken over by SHELL and again by CAIRN ENERGY and Blocks 17, 18 was taken over by
TULLOW which was subsequently taken by Total E.P. Block 22 saw a number of change in
operatorship but hardly any activity. On completion of the initial exploration period, major
relinquishments have been made under the PSCs of Blocks 12, 13, 14, 16 & 9. PSCs for Block
15 & 22 have expired resulting 100% relinquishment of these blocks. After conducting 3D
seismic survey on Teknaf structure in Block-18,the operator of Block -17&18 PSC has decided
not to go for drilling and terminate the contract.However Rexwood & Okland who are 8% share
holder of Block 17 & 18 PSC are pursuing for further extension of the contract .Their proposal is
under review of the Government.
After completion of the development program, Moulavibazar field is producing 100 mmscf gas
per day since March 2005. Production from Sangu and Jalalabad is being maintained at about 50
mmscf and 160 mmscf per day. The development program of the Bibiyana gas field has been
completed and this filed is producing @640 mmscf per day. Gas production from Bangura-
Lalmai field started since May 2006 under long-term testing. Upon declaration of the field as a
commercial discovery in December 2003,the field has been further developed and the temporary
processing facility has been upgraded.This field is now producing 85 mmscf per day which is
expected to be increased up to 100 mmscf by July 2009. In Blocks-5 & 10 Cairn has conducted
68.7 km and 13000 km seismic survey without drilling any well yet. Recently CAIRN has
completed drilling at Magnama and Hatia prospects situated in Block 16. Considering the gas
show in both the wells, CAIRN has proposed to come up with appraisal program of the said
prospects in near future. In Block-7,Chevron is carrying out 450 km seismic survey. After
completion of the interpretation of data collected from seismic survey, Chevron has a plan to
drill well in that Block.

GTCL was formed as a high-pressure gas transmission company to
eventually take over all high-pressure transmission pipelines of the
country for a centralized operation. The company started with the
operation of the Petrobangla implemented North South pipeline (24
inch, 175 km) stretching from Kailashtila gas field to Ashuganj. Later
the company implemented the Ashuganj - Bakhrabad pipeline (30inch,
58.5 km), which completed the interconnection of the national gas
grid. GTCL since then have completed the pipeline to western region
over the Jamuna bridge, carrying natural gas to the western parts of the
country for the first time. This pipeline was later extended to
Baghabari to feed gas to the power plants of PDB and Westmont. A
more recent pipeline of GTCL is the first stage of the Ashuganj –
Kailashtila loop, which extends from Ashuganj to Habiganj (30 inch,
54 km).
The second stage of the loop, extending from Habiganj to Rashidpur(30 inch, 28 km) has been
completed. The extension of the western region network of a 60 km transmission line from Nalka
to Bogra (20 inch, 54km plus 30 inch 6 km) is now operational.
A number of new projects for building new pipelines and compressor stations are going on in
full swing. These includes compressor stations in Ashuganj, Muchai & Elenga, and Bheramara -
Khulna, Bonpara - Rajshahi, Westbank to Nalka, Hatikumrul - Bheramara, Monohordi to East
bank of Jamuna Bridge, Ashuganj– Monohardi and Monohardi – Jamuna East Bank pipeline.
