Background

The Bogra-Rangpur-Nilphamari gas transmission pipeline will be operated by GTCL, a subsidiary of Petrobangla. The pipeline will provide an uninterrupted gas supply to the north and north-west regions and will also provide a supply of gas to power, industrial, commercial and other consumers.

As of September 2020, procurement and land acquisition was in progress. GTCL issued a tender for construction of pipeline in August 2021. The total cost of the project was estimated at 137,855 Lac Takka (approximately $162,052.55).

As of March 2023, 90% of the work had been completed at a cost of Tk 1,359 crore.
