Russia offers to export refined diesel at $59 dollars to Bangladesh

This is the exact reason why Bengalis broke away from Meutrals led colonial slavery that still continues to this day in Pakistan.

Calm down brother

West does not care one bit what rest of south Asians in Bangladesh or india do they have clearly shown double standards on Indians mad oil buys from putin. Seen them
As none threat to western interests

On the other hand, West only cares and is completely obsessed with Pakistanis. Ousted Imran khan proved it. When Entire western envoys were lodging protests on his up coming visits and deals with putin. If west wishes to stop these two capitals Dhaka and Delhi we both know it will only take crack of the whip to stop it-all

Unlikely to happen, India will only get 20 % discount for crude oil (since India has large refining industry).

The reason Russia offer that price to BD is for marketing purposes, trying to get more willing buyers outside India and China. Current price cannot make BD buy Russian oil due to several reasons, where one of the reasons is because BD doesnt want to make Western nations angry at BD while Western nations are BD market for BD textile industry.

BD now has a very good image in the west.

“Plucky moderate Muslims fighting against climate change whilst trying to work around Hinduvta”

US and EU governments will face backlash from their political donors.

Hasina has obviously done her homework. She is not hot headed like her male peers like ModiG and IK.

Learn from Hasina on how to play big countries against each other.

Pakistan made a mistake by putting all its eggs in the China basket.

And by making a mortal enemy of Hinduvta turds.

Pakistan has massively restricted its geopolitical choices.

Plus, inability to control religious extremism means Pakistan has an image problem. Which is always exploited by Hinduvta and WEST.

Pakistan needs to find a humble leader.

But it’s impossible for a humble person to rise in a feudal society.

Why has west called us duplicitous Pakistani Pakistan Leaders and ISI played both sides in said afghans 2 war when it receives indirect funding from the US?…would be another rhetorical question would ask, since soviet invasion 1979 , we have played them all and in the same time we set up a successful and got Nukes program what’s NEXT!
Re strength our relationship with China even more. West is backing Delhi to stop China lol

Sadly One person fundamentally ruined US-Pakistan relations. Osama Bin Laden. (Which I feel has been discussed a lot on this forum).

I thank Allah that Pakistan has nuclear bomb. That took courage.

The structure and complexity of Pakistan is mind boggling.

Keeping such a country together takes up too much oxygen.

Leaving little spare for development.

Pakistan tried to do it by weaponising Islam - it backfired massively.

ModiG is now trying the same trick but will also blow up on his face.

I don’t know how either country can do it.

Both will disintegrate eventually - hopefully without much more bloodshed.

@UKBengali

In a way both of us (IND & BD) are lucky. It is not that we are "braver" than Pakistanis- truth be told Pakistan is blessed/cursed with its geography. Pak faces the Straits of Hormuz and also historically Russia's (aka USSR's) soft underbelly. The West will never allow Pak to be truly autonomous as long as it is the World's foremost power.

Thus West will allow us to get away with what it will never allow Pak to do.

Life is about trade offs.

And making those trade offs palatable by maximising the hand you have been dealt.

For Bangladesh - it is a poor hand except for:

1. Extremely fertile soil.
2. Abundance of water in a region that will rapidly desertify.
3. Chicken neck
4. Homogeneous and politically and socially moderate populace.
5. Hard working people

Hasina is the first leader since the Mughal days - who is maximising our advantages whilst working hard to mitigate our many disadvantages.

Dw about it these jealous paks are worse then Hindus. They have their caste system, they marrying in accordance to their caste, they vehemently practice marrying 1st cousins, when it should be last resort.

It’s a huge irony that Pakistan and India are extremely diverse but their behaviour is extremely myopic.

Their marriage practices is the ultimate example of it.

Hindus restrict themselves to their caste. And paks keep it literally in the family.

This is obviously why they grow up to be insular and intolerant.

Lack of diversity in the gene pool screws up their emotional intelligence.

Interesting news. $59 barrel refined diesel is too good to be true. Is there any other sources for this news ?

For now, it is still an offer from Russia. No one really knows how it will end.

Prospective Russian oil import impeded​

Prospective Russian oil import impeded



Bangladesh may miss the benefit of importing 'cheap' Russian oil for now as the country's contracts with global suppliers of petroleum products stand in the way till this yearend.

The state-run Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC) ought to continue importing oils until December this year under the existing contracts with the suppliers, a senior BPC official told the FE Thursday, while the process of sourcing Russian fuels is already instructed by government high-ups amid a global crunch.

"If the country wants to initiate oil import from Russia before December, the BPC will have to import minimum quantity of oil products from the current contractual suppliers as there is space of adding or deducting import quantity by up to 10 per cent," he says.

Besides, the BPC will have to scrutinize a number of issues which include oil specifications, vessels, demurrage, mode of import payments, currency swap, loading and unloading timings.

The BPC will also have to win approval for the Russian oil-import deal from the cabinet committee of public purchase.

Russian Rosneft Oil Company last week offered Bangladesh three-spate refined oil products-diesel, jet fuel and octane - at a cut-down rate.

The price might be as low as 35-percent-discount rate from international market rate, which might be around Tk 55 per litre, market-insiders said.

Currently, BPC is importing refined petroleum products above the international market rates, adding premium rate, as high as US$24 per barrel.

Russia previously had offered to export crude oils to Bangladesh, which could not be explored due to capacity constraints of Bangladesh's existing five-decade-old oil refinery - Eastern Refinery Ltd (ERL).

Russia is currently supplying oils to China and India at around 35-percent-lower- than-regular prices.

The BPC has contracts to import up to 3.30 million tonnes of refined petroleum products during July-December 2022, which will be 34-percent higher than the July-December 2021.

The BPC has been importing 11,30,000 tonnes of petroleum--11,90,000-tonne diesel, 160,000- tonne jet fuel, 75,000-tonne-1,25,000-tonne furnace oil, 125,000-tonne-150,000- tonne octane and 30,000-tonne marine fuel-through tendering during second half of 2022.

The state-run petroleum corporation has also been importing similar quantity of petroleum products through negotiations with more than half a dozen suppliers for July-December 2022 period.

The BPC's petroleum suppliers under term deals are Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC), PETCO Trading Labuan Company Limited (PTLCL), Emirates National Oil Company (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. (ENOC), Petrochina (Singapore) Pte. Ltd, PT. Bumi Siak Pusako (BSP), Unipec Singapore Pte Ltd, PTT International Trading Pte, and Numaligar Refinery Limited (NRL).

Vitol Asia and Unipec Singapore are supplying oil products under tendering.

The BPC has 431,835 tonnes of diesel storage, which can meet demand for 32 days considering daily consumption of around 13,607 tonnes.

The country has storage of jet A-1 fuel to meet 44 days of demand and furnace oil to meet 32 days demand, it clarified.

Bangladesh produces full quantity of petrol to meet local demand, while imports 40 per cent of octane of its demand from the international market.

In July, BPC imported around 255,000 tonnes of diesel through nine cargoes, 43,000 tonnes of A-1 jet fuel through two cargoes, 24,677 tonnes of octane one cargo and 53,358 tonnes of furnace oil through two cargoes, it stated.

It will also import 218,000 tonnes of diesel through eight cargoes. In August, 25,000 tonnes of jet fuel will be imported through one cargo and 25,000 tonnes of octane through one cargo, the statement points out.

Kalo Beral,

Currently, BPC is importing refined petroleum products above the international market rates, adding premium rate, as high as US$24 per barrel.

This is wierd. Why would anyone import at such a high premium.
