The first delivery of low-sulphur bunker fuel for Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC) reportedly arrived in Chittagong on Monday (14 September) from Singapore.
Oil Tanker MT TMN Pride carrying 15,000 metric tonnes of low-sulphur bunker fuel was berthed at Dolphin Jetty No. 5 of the Meghna Oil Company at Patenga.
The Bangladesh government in August approved Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation’s (BPC) proposals to purchase 150,000 metric tonnes (mt) of bunker fuel across July-December 2020
The proposals that were approved are to import 75,000 mt of bunker fuel through an international tender for Tk 222.1 crore (USD 26.3 million), and another 75,000 mt through government-to-government trades for Tk 216.7 crore (USD 25.6 million).
