Back in 2019, Corpovisuals had a rare opportunity to document an epic saga in Bangladesh’s energy journey—the installation of Summit LNG Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) at its offshore location in Moheshkhali.
As we watched that 138,000 cubic metre structure interconnect to the national grid via a 6km subsea pipeline, we sensed we were seeing something more than an asset. We were capturing footage of the bedrock of national energy resilience.
Indeed, that foresight is more important than ever today.
Bangladesh’s proactive strategy is reframing a potential crisis into a tale of strategic strength as the global energy landscape buckles from the stress-test of the 2026 Middle East conflict
Preemptive Diversification: Petrobangla, the government’s natural gas company, is seeking emergency cargo from partners across the world, including TotalEnergies (UK) and Posco (South Korea), while signing long-haul contracts with new suppliers such as the USA (in partnership with Excelerate Energy).
Global Safety Net: Bangladesh's acceptance of LNG from countries including Nigeria, Australia, and Equatorial Guinea helps the nation diversify its energy portfolio, creating a resilient portfolio that lowers dependence on any one region.
The Right Scoop: This is where our footage comes into play. This global flexibility is made possible by the physical gateway of the Summit LNG Terminal, which has a regasification capacity of 500 mmcfd." It is poised to accept power from virtually anywhere on the planet.
Yes, global market turmoil has raised costs. But because of the foresight demonstrated years ago and decisive action being taken today, Bangladesh is weathering this storm with great confidence.
Watch the full documentary to experience the remarkable story of how this vital energy gateway was constructed. Bay of Bengal images testify to a country that built its bridge into the future before cleaving reality arrived.
