Two ships carrying a total of about 51,000 tons of fuel are scheduled to reach Bangladesh waters on Wednesday under the supervision of the Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC). According to BPC officials, one vessel named MT Central Star, flying the Marshall Islands flag, is bringing around 26,000 tons of refined octane, while another vessel, MT Eastern Queens, is carrying 25,000 metric tons of furnace oil. Both ships are expected to take one to two additional days to reach the outer anchorage of Chattogram Port.

BPC’s public relations officer Farzin Hasan Moumita confirmed the arrival schedule. Officials said unloading operations will begin promptly once the ships dock at the jetty. Despite ongoing global conflict affecting supply chains, BPC continues efforts to maintain steady fuel imports and distribution across the country.

The timely arrival of these shipments is expected to support Bangladesh’s domestic fuel supply and help stabilize the energy distribution system amid challenging international conditions.
