Authorities have decided to suspend gas supply from two floating LNG terminals in Moheshkhali due to the incoming cyclonic storm Mocha.
Gas supply was snapped at 11pm on Friday (May 12) but will resume at the earliest considering the storm situation, reads a Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources press release.
As a result, Gas-powered power plants in Chittagong, Meghnaghat, Haripur, and Siddhirganj areas may remain closed or operate partially.
