Bangladesh's energy minister said on 14 November 2026 that enough LNG has been bought to meet gas demand through December, with January purchases now being planned. A floating LNG terminal problem had cut gas supply by nearly half, forcing spot purchases.
The minister said spot LNG prices rose from $12 to $31 per MMBtu in Singapore.
Sharply higher spot LNG prices in Asia raise gas-based power costs toward oil-based levels, which can shift fuel-switching and feed-industry energy costs. The story is regional and has limited direct effect on feed commodity prices.
