The project is expected to have an annual unloading capacity of 9 million tonnes.
Under the project, BPC officials said the Chinese firm will build 146-km offshore pipeline and 74-km onshore pipeline to carry imported oil from sea to a refinery in Chittagong district, some 242 km southeast of Dhaka, for processing.
The project was launched as Bangladesh is not capable of handling large vessels carrying imported crude and finished oil, due to low navigability of a key river channel and constrained facilities at the main seaport in Chittagong.
According to the officials, large tankers anchor at deep sea and smaller ships unload them, taking lots of time and causing systematic losses for the government.
