[ Noakhali Online Group ] Total finds hydrocarbon in Cox's Bazar, Bay




Total, the French oil company, has discovered hydrocarbon in Cox's
Bazar and in the Bay of Bengal much to the relief of energy-starved
greater Chittagong and the country as well, officials said Thursday.
The company told the Petrobangla Tuesday that it was able to locate
the 'presence' of hydrocarbon in block nos. 17 and 18, which also
cover part of the St Martin islands in the Bay.

"The company said it has found hydrocarbon in these structures, which
means there might be oil or gas or both," a senior Petrobangla
official told the FE.

The company shared its offshore gas survey results with Petrobangla
Tuesday and the commercial viability of hydrocarbon of both these
structures would be announced through consultation early next month,
the Petrobangla official said.

"We are quite satisfied with the data we acquired through the survey,"
a Total official told the FE.

Terming the outcome of the survey campaign 'good' the Total official
hoped to demonstrate details of the outcome soon.

Total, the world's fourth largest energy company, invested around US$
18 million to conduct the extensive three dimensional (3D) survey in
both these structures in the Bay near Myanmar border that covers
18,367 square kilometres.

If the company's discovery matches the commercial viability, it would
be one of the biggest hydrocarbon findings in the country's history, a
senior energy ministry official said.

Total would then make a work-plan for field development and submit it
to Petrobangla for approval.

If all the exploration activities goes smoothly, oil or gas production
from these offshore structures would be initiated within three to four
years.

This would be Total's entry into oil and gas production in Bangladesh.
Total is already present in the refining and marketing sectors in
Bangladesh, with activities in lubricants and liquefied petroleum gas.

Total holds a 30 per cent stake including the operatorship in these
two blocks. Irish oil company Tullow has 32 per cent, followed by Thai
energy giant PTTEP 30 per cent and US companies Oakland and Rexwood
eight per cent stakes in these structures.

State energy corporation Petrobangla rented both the blocks to US
joint venture Rexwood-Oakland during the country's first round energy
bidding in January 1997, but the companies did not carry out any
exploration work due to poor gas demand in the country during that time.

Later Tullow bought majority shares from the US companies. In 2006
Tullow sold its 60 per cent stake to Total, which recently sold half
of its stake to the PTTEP.

Blocks 17 and 18 are close to Myanmar's prospective gas blocks.
Myanmar discovered around 6.0 TCF of gas reserves in the adjacent
offshore gas blocks discovered recently by several international oil
and gas companies (IOCs).

Petrobangla officials said the discovery of gas at the offshore fields
could bring double cheers to the country, now facing soaring energy
crisis amid booming industrial growth.

"If it is found that the discovery is a big one, it will bring to an
end to the chronic gas crisis in the southeastern Chittagong region
within a few years," said an official.

These structures could also contribute significantly to meet the
mounting energy demands across the country.

Major industries, power and fertiliser plants across the country have
been facing acute crisis of energy since last year as the demand
exceeded supply by a great length.

Country's current gas production is now hovering around 1800 million
cubic feet per day (mmcfd) against the demand for over 2050 mmcfd.

[ Noakhali Online Group ] Country image we hold of Bangladesh -Software made in Bangladesh-Wall Street Journal Article

Plz, have a look.......

We should check how an Indian writes about Bangladesh and our Media should protest this. Why this writer is picking Bangladesh as an example in Wall Street Journal? This writer is a visiting faculty member of international marketing Western International University, India in New Delhi may not know the quality of Bangladesh shirt yet, in US Market. Soon he need to learn about quality of software made in Bangladesh, we are getting there. We need to watch for anti Bangladesh propaganda by our next door neighbor...


 
 
Let me ask a question which I ask my students of international marketing: Will you buy chocolate, a shirt or software made in Bangladesh? Would you trust a doctor trained in Bangladesh to perform heart surgery on you in Dhaka? Would you even open a bank account in a Bangladeshi bank?

Chances are, the answer will be no, simply because the country image we hold of Bangladesh in our minds is that of a poverty-stricken country, an image reinforced by what we constantly see in the media. Whether unfair or not, it's not a country we associate with quality.

In case of any investment in the field of electricity we need time like  2-3 years at least but before that we have to do many works: planning, bidding and many other related decisions. Can we dream that after 3 years , Electricity Supply and distribution  will be OK??One problem is effecting so many sectors that it is becoming quite unbearable.

 

If the present govt. not able to deliver us proper electricity supply after 3 years , then what happen?? If other party come to power , will say same thing like that???

Or the present govt. will then say, we was last time started the project but present govt. is not continuing the project. So what the MINISTRY doing? Why need these secretary of govt.? Why not the govt. is asking for foreign investment??

 

If the govt. don't have enough money , why it is not strengthening its Stock Exchanges??

 

Why institutions like big mobile operators, hotels, real estate is not still being enlisted in the stock market? If big companies not enlist them to stock market , how can we have our own capital? Only buying shares is not the work of govt. , they need to make laws for involving the companies in the Stock Market.

 

Many big companies are working in Bangladesh market for long long time but still not enlisted in our stock market , which is really our very own. If we don't make us strong or show any interest to make our own capital strong , how we hope others will come an always give us money, where money management of us is also not so much strong.

 

Please atleast show the attitude, willingness for the development of Bangladesh ; tell us the initiatives that you have taken ,please. It is much more important to us than any other comments that you say through media. Every year , SSC and HSC students talk about the electricity problem !!!!??? WHY , WHY?? SO , every year same story, same thing???Please forgive us.Please get us free from this same scenario.

 

PLEASE.PLEASE. PLEASE

[ Noakhali Online Group ] 8 doors of jannat

As-salaamu-alaikum,
How are the Muslims of today?
Fajar is spent in sleep.
Zuhr in college or at job.
Asr in relaxing.
Maghrib busy doing stuff.
Ishaa watching TV.
Jumaah salaat is only 2 rakaat, that too engrossed in worldly thoughts. If anyone prays tahajjud, that is considered astonishing!

Please remember...
The first question asked in the grave will be concerning namaaz.
It is a request to everyone to invite others for namaaz. Insha-Allah, you will be rewarded for this!
May Allah fulfill the legitimate wishes of the person who sends this message to all...Ameen!

There are 8 doors of Jannat:
1. Jannat-ul-mava
2. Dar-ul-maqaam
3. Dar-ul-salaam
4. Dar-ul-khuld
5. Jannat-ul-adaan
6. Jannat-ul-naim
7. Jannat-ul-kasif
8. Jannat-ul-firdaus 
Insha-Allah, on the day of qayamat may your name be called from all the doors...Ameen!

Islamic note...
First farishta: Today I came so close to Allah that there were only 70 veils between me and Allah Ta-ala.
Second farishta: But when a momin stands for prayer, he comes so close to Allah that even those 70 veils are removed!!

Rasool Allah ( S.A.W.) has proclaimed:
1.. The person who is always in a state of wazoo, Allah will increase his livelihood!
2. The person who doesn't reveal his needs to others, his needs are soon fulfilled!
3. Allah Ta-ala keeps that person healthy and happy (abaad) who after listening to Hadith forwards it to others!

Subhan-Allah, to propagate a good thing is Sadqa Jaaria. So please don't let it stop...forward it to all your friends and relatives... Jazak-Allah.

 
Shohid
