The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs on Wednesday approved state-run oil company Petrobangla’s proposal to task Summit with setting up the terminal with a capacity to regasify 600 MMcf/d of imported LNG at Moheshkhali, according to Syed Mahbub Khan, additional secretary of the Cabinet Division.

Two floating LNG terminals, each with a capacity of 500 MMcf/d, are currently operational in Maheshkhali. Summit manages one of them, while the other is run by Excelerate Energy of the United States.
