Power plant
Newaz Noor-ul Wahab, Housing Estate, Sylhet
Bibiyana gas field is one of the largest gas fields located near the river Kushiara in the district of Habigonj. The gas field is likely to produce nearly 600mmcf of gas within a year or two. The time is ripe to think of setting up a high capacity power generation plant within close proximity of Bibiyana gas field. Gas, water resources and land are the first and foremost requirements to establish a power generation plant.The high volume of gas produced in greater Sylhet region is not easy to transport to other regions of the country due to inadequate pipeline capacity. It appears to be wise to produce electricity from a nearby location of Bibiyana gas field and tie up with overhead national grid power line, instead of laying fresh pipelines to transmit gas from greater Sylhet to other regions. A high volume of gas can be consumed in the power plant with uninterrupted supply of gas. Every day our requirements for power is increasing and we need to be prepared to ensure power supply in the years to come. In order to minimize expenditure, we need to develop a few large power generation sources, instead of too many small power plants. Bibiyana based power plant can possibly be one of the major sources of power supply.
