ABSTRACT Natural gas has been an important indigenol.lS hydrocarbon resource in Bangladesh It is predominant fuel for industries and commercial establishments. The natural gas produced from the reservoir is usually a complex mixture of several hydrocarbons in thcir liquid and gaseous states, intimately mixcd with water Often, solids and other contaminants arc also present in the mixturc. Therefore, some processing is fC{luiredfor the produced natural gas before it can be brought to the customer. The gas processing plants constitute a very important !legment of the gas industry in Bangladesh. Currently, there are six companies involved in producing gas ITom fifteen different gas fields in Bangladesh. These companies operate thirty-nine ga, processing plants, using a variety of technologies. Different technologies are involved in removing different elements ITom natural gas Therefore, a gas processing plant must combine the appropriate technologies to address the needs of a specific gas field. The selection and design of a processing plant i, extremely important for operating a gas ficld efficiently and economically. This study takes a closer look at an these plants in Bangladesh, A scrutiny of each plant is presented with a view to identity potential rooms for improvement. Whereas the knowledge and expertise on one particular plant is available, it is extremely difficult to get a broader perspective of the industry because no comparative literature is available This study attempt> to fill in the knowledge bage by presenting a comparative •• study uf all the plants currently in operation in Bangladesh. It will be beneficial to all partie, interested in the gas processing industry in Bangladesh. It should provide some directives regarding the future of the industry in Bangladesh TABLE OF CONTENTS page CHAPTER I .................................................................................... 1 l}ITRODUcnON \ CHAPTER II .•.•......•...•.•.•..............•..•.•.•.....•..........................•....•.•.•. 3 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM 3 2, I Objectives 3 2.2 Methodology 4 CHAPTER III ...............•..........•.•...•.......•........................................... 5 OlL AND GAS EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION IN BANGLADESH 5 3.1 Exploration for Oil and Gas. 5 3. !.I Phase--l (British Period) 6 3.

  • Connecting Bangladesh: Economic Corridor Network
    Connecting Bangladesh: Economic Corridor Network Economic corridors are anchored on transport corridors, and international experience suggests that the higher the level of connectivity within and across countries, the higher the level of economic growth. In this paper, a new set of corridors is being proposed for Bangladesh—a nine-corridor comprehensive integrated multimodal economic corridor network resembling the London Tube map. This paper presents the initial results of the research undertaken as an early step of that development effort. It recommends an integrated approach to developing economic corridors in Bangladesh that would provide a strong economic foundation for the construction of world-class infrastructure that, in turn, could support the growth of local enterprises and attract foreign investment. About the Asian Development Bank COnnecTING BANGLADESH: ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to a large share of the world’s poor. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. ECONOMIC CORRIDOR Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, NETWORK and technical assistance. Mohuiddin Alamgir

Shofiqul Islam1, Md. Farhaduzzaman2 1Department of Petroleum & Mining Engineering, Shahjalal University of Science & Technology, Sylhet, Bangladesh 2Petroleum Engineering Department, Sylhet Gas Fields Limited (A company of Petrobangla), Sylhet, Bangladesh *Corresponding Author: Md. Shofiqul Islam, Department of Petroleum & Mining Engineering, Shahjalal University of Science & Technology, Sylhet, Bangladesh Abstract: The present study has been conducted to evaluate the petrophysical properties of Sylhet Gas Field based on different logs data such as gamma-ray, spontaneous potential, density, neutron, resistivity, caliper and sonic logs. Quantitative properties including shale volume, porosity, permeability, fluid saturation, HC movability index and bulk volume of water were carried out using the well logs. Fourteen permeable zones were identified where six zones were found gas-bearing, one was oil bearing and the rest were water bearing. Computed petrophysical parameters across the reservoir provided average porosity as ranging from 16 to 26%, the permeability values range from 52 to 349 mili Darcy (mD) and the average hydrocarbon saturations are 75%, 68%, 77%, 76%, 63%, 73%, and 63% for reservoir Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3, Zone 4, Zone 5, Zone 6 and Zone 7 respectively. Hydrocarbon was found moveable in the reservoir since all the hydrocarbon movability index value was less than 0.70. An average bulk volume of water ranged from 0.04 to 0.08.

T. M. Shahidul Huqe Muzemder1 1Department of Petroleum & Mining Engineering, Shahjalal University of Science & Technology, Sylhet, Bangladesh. *Corresponding Author: Md Sifat Tanveer, Department of Petroleum & Mining Engineering, Shahjalal University of Science & Technology, Sylhet, Bangladesh. Abstract: The uncertainties attached to the characteristics of the underlying aquifer is one of the main constrains of production prediction from gas reservoirs producing under the support of natural water influx. This study has been conducted with Rashidpur Gas Field located in Bangladesh which has tendencies towards pressure maintenance by natural water influx. The presence of aquifer influx was recognized from the behavior of P⁄Z vs G_P plot and material balance analysis without water influx. The objectives of this study are to determine the unknown aquifer size and permeability through different history matching techniques and perform production prediction with the best fit aquifer parameters. Three history matching techniques; analytical method, graphical method and history simulation have been carried out varying the aquifer outer-inner ratio and permeability. Fetkovich’s Semi Steady Sate water influx model is incorporated with the material balance to calculate the cumulative water influx. The best history matching result is observed for aquifer outer-inner ratio of 5 and permeability of 130 md and estimated recovery is 59% as predicted with the existing well.

  • Reserve Estimation of Beani Bazar Gas Field, Bangladesh Using Wireline Log Data Farzana Yeasmin Nipa1*, G
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 9, Issue 3, March-2018 1681 ISSN 2229-5518 Reserve Estimation of Beani Bazar Gas Field, Bangladesh Using Wireline Log Data Farzana Yeasmin Nipa1*, G. M. Ariful Islam2 Abstract—Reserve estimation is very important part for determination of gas field’s lifetime which is known as production duration of gas fields. Beani bazar gas field very rich in condensate has been discovered in October 1982. Although drilling was completed in May 1981, but in view of economic considerations the production testing of two potential gas sands detected from well logs were not conducted with the expensive parker rig at that time. But at last production testing of Beani bazar well was carried out by the same rig in August- September 1982 and the presence of commercial gas deposit with high content of condensate is confirmed. Beani bazar gas field is located about 30 km which is at the east of Sylhet town and 15 km east of Kailastila gas field. Reserve estimation of Beani bazar gas field has been done by volumetric reserve estimation method. This method’s factors are estimated using wireline log data. In the preliminary reserve calculated earlier has shown in the total reserve of gas in place at 1.1 TCF and recoverable reserve at 0.8 TCF. According to estimation the total recoverable gas reserve comes at 0.243 TCF of which proven, probable and possible reserves are 0.098 TCF, 0.076 TCF and 0.069 TCF respectively. The recoverable condensate reserve is 3949000 BBLs. Index Terms: Beani Bazar Gas Field, Reserve Estimation, Volumetric Method, Recoverable Reserve, Wireline Log Data, Condensate, Gas.
