Bangladesh's Summit Group has signed a preliminary pact to supply 1.5 million metric tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) per year to state-run Petrobangla for 15 years, starting from October 2026, its chairman, Aziz Khan, told Reuters.

The deal, which Khan expects to be cleared by the cabinet in less than a month, does not specify a country of origin, giving the company flexibility to source cargoes from anywhere for supply to Petrobangla.

Khan did not provide details of pricing.

Petrobangla did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
