Bangladesh is in turmoil after the government decided to impose what is the biggest ever hike in gas prices in the history of the world.
8The price hike has been affected to mitigate losses incurred by the increasing cost of LNG imports.
8Even after the price hike, subsidies willl still be needed for 23% of the cost of gas
8The price hike and the subsequent turmoil amongst political parties and industry again highlights the dangers inherent in the import of LNG into countries that essentially cannot afford such high cost of gas

Even a very conservative estimate of meeting only 5% blending of biodiesel would generate 1.59 million sustainable entrepreneurs of which 1.58 million would be engaged in plantation, 8.46 thousand would in trading and another 2.49 thousand as small-sized entrepreneurs in biodiesel manufacturing.
8In sum, the biodiesel programme has an enormous potential of sustainable entrepreneurship development meeting all the three objectives of economic growth, social equity and environmental sustainability.
8But there are significant risks that the government should try and mitigate, including declaring minimum support price for a range of biofuel feedstock for a reasonable period in advance so that the rural poor look at biofuels as another crop to plant

8The figure seems to have gone up rather dramatically.

It is now established that the goal of decarbonization and maintaining high returns within the existing set of technologies and business models is not feasible for an oil and gas company anymore.
8Thus investment in new technologies, particularly in low-carbon energy technologies has become imperative as global warming reaches a feverish pitch.
8But oil companies need scale and return of a kind which is incompatible with the diffused and disaggregated business models for new technologies.
8So where does an oil & gas company go from here given the dramatic nature of the energy transition ahead? Should it just try to stay put, improving efficiencies through economies of scale and digitization, or should it venture into the uncertain world outside and explore dramatically new business models.
8In a path-breaking paper, a research agency outlines how an oil & gas company needs to look at the future, what kind of technologies it can invest in, and what kind of returns it can expect.

A $40 million ONGC tender for 26 cementing units seems to have got mired in a lot of controversy.
8Accusations were flying thick and fast in a pre-bid meeting. Those who designed the Bid Evaluation Criteria (BEC) were accused of favouring just a clutch of cementing services companies to the exclusion of others.
8One qualification criterion outlines only three specific slurry mixing systems for the cementing units, that they should either be of  an "RCM IIIR" or a "PSM" or a "SLURRY Chief MARK-III" variety.  ONGC will not permit any other equivalent, proven and experienced manufacturer mixing system to be offered. But the point to note is that these systems are in fact trademarks of the just a clutch of three service companies. "ONGC might as well have issued a limited tender to all three of them," said a representative of a US-based cementing unit manufacturer.
8Then again, the group that had formulated the Bid Evaluation Criteria seemed to have been keen to get a cementing service provider rather than a cementing unit manufacturer. This is evident from the fact that there are two different sets of experience criteria applicable to qualify as an AMC provider in the tender. If you are a manufacturer, you would need to show an AMC contract with a pre-selected group of E&P service providers or operators. 
8But you if it is a cementing service company and also a manufacturer of cementing units, the AMC precondition is waived, and all that it needs to qualify is the experience of providing a service contract for a minimum of three years out of 10 years to a pre-selected group of E&P operators or drilling companies. Providing cementing services against providing AMCs against the supplied units are two different experiences. It seems service companies who are manufacturers of cementing units are unfairly exempted from the AMC experience requirement.
