Background

In October 2021, Summit Oil and Gas Shipping Co Ltd (Summit) proposed setting up an LNG floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) at Matarbari Deep Sea Port in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. The company would still need approval from Bangladesh's ministry of Power, Energy, and Mineral Resources to move forward.[1]

In January 2023, Bangladesh's government approved the proposal to build the terminal.[3]
