Bangladesh’s RPGCL seeks two spot LNG shipments

Bangladesh's Rupantarita Prakritik Gas (RPGCL), a unit of state-owned Petrobangla, has issued a tender for two spot LNG shipments.

RPGCL said in a tender document on Thursday that the delivery windows are July 15-16 and July 17-18.

The firm issued the tender to the 23 organizations that have signed the MSPA (master sale and purchase agreement) with Petrobangla.

The tender will close on June 15.

Before this tender, RGPCL invited bids in May for a single spot LNG shipment with a delivery window of July 11-12.

Bangladesh currently imports LNG via two FSRU-based facilities, both of which feature Excelerate Energy’s FSRUs.

The 138,000-cbm FSRU Excellence serves Bangladesh’s first LNG import facility, Moheshkhali Floating LNG or MLNG, operated by Petrobangla.

Excelerate’s 138,000-cbm FSRU Summit LNG serves as the second LNG import facility operated by Summit.

According to GIIGNL data, Bangladesh recorded a 0.5 MT growth and imported 5.7 MT of LNG in 2024, a rise of 9 percent compared to 2023

Qatar is the main LNG supplier to Bangladesh with a 72 percent share.

Last year, Bangladesh also increased its spot LNG purchases from the US (0.6 MT)
with the share going from 8 percent to 13 percent, the data shows.
