State-run Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution Company Ltd yesterday said its profit dipped 13 per cent year-on-year in the first six months of 2022-23 fiscal year, despite it posted higher earnings in the second quarter.

The lack of gas connections is creating obstacles for companies at the API Industrial Park to conduct their operations even though the project was completed in June last year.

Due to emergency work in a gas pipeline, the supply of gas will be suspended in some areas of Gazipur for 24 hours starting at 9:00 am tomorrow (June 17, 2022) to Saturday 9:00 am.

Gas supply resumes in Dhaka and adjoining areas over 26 hours after the supply was partially halted due to technical glitch at Ashulia gas station, says Titas official.

Gas supply to tens of thousands of households, factories and other establishments in the capital and its adjoining areas came to a complete or partial halt in the morning yesterday because of a technical glitch in the gas network, inflicting untold sufferings on the city dwellers.

Gas supply across a vast area of Narayanganj will remain off for eight hours on Monday due to relocation of gas pipelines for tie-in installation, Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution Company Ltd says in a release.
