Field history
Discovery1959

Chhatak Gas Field (Bengali: ছাতক গ্যাসক্ষেত্র) is a natural gas field located in Chhatak Upazila, Sunamganj District, Bangladesh.[1] This company is under the control of Sylhet Gas Field Company Limited (SGFL).[2] For the first time in Bangladesh, gas connection was provided to the industrial sector from this gas field in 1959.[3] In 1960, it provided approximately 4 million cubic feet of gas per day to Chhatak Cement Factory as well as Sylhet Pulp and Paper Mills.

Location[edit]

Chhatak gas field is located in Chhatak Upazila, Sunamganj district of Sylhet division,[4] about 300 km northeast of the capital Dhaka. This gas field is basically operated by two different gas fields - Chhatak (East) and Tangrtila or Chhatak (West); Which is merged to a single field after 2001.[4]

Explosion[edit]

Two explosions have occurred at the gas field. One of them happened on January 7 2005, and the second happened on June 24 of the same year.[1]
