Bangladesh's First FSRU Starts Operations

Monday, August 20, 2018

Bangladesh started operations at the country's first liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal on Saturday after ironing out teething issues related to technical problems and bad weather, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters on Monday.

The floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU), which arrived in Bangladesh in April to offload its maiden cargo of LNG and moor permanently as an import terminal, is now fully ready and has started operations, the sources said.
