Background

The pipeline provides uninterrupted gas supply to the Titas Gas franchise areas (Gazipur, Mymensingh and Tangail), Parchimanchal franchise areas (Rajshahi Division) and Sundarban franchise areas (Khulna Division). In addition, the project also transports gas to the proposed 450 MW Sirajgonj power station and 450 MW Bheramara power station. The project cost was originally estimated to be 97917.60 lakh taka (approximately $116 Million) but was later revised as 82851.38 lakh taka (approximately 98 Million).
