B a n g l a d e s h ‘ s liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports are likely to outpace Pakistan’s by 2035, making it the secondlargest importer in South Asia after India, according to a projection by the International Energy Agency (IEA). Pakistan and Bangladesh together would import around 75 billion cubic meters (bcm) of LNG in 2035, up roughly 60 percent from 2024 levels, projected the intergovernmental organization, which provides policy recommendations, analysis, and data.
the Stated Policies Scenario reflects reading of country specific energy, climate and related industrial policies that have been adopted or put forward, even if not yet codified in law.
though the report did not specifically state the share of each country, the outlook data and infrastructural trends showed that Bangladesh would import around 42-44 bcm of LNG in 2035, while Pakistan would import around 33-36 bcm.
