Highlights of Operations
Chevron is one of the largest foreign investors in Bangladesh, providing employment for about 3,000 workers and meeting 35 percent of the country's natural gas needs.
The development to startup of the Bibiyana Field in just two years demonstrates our ability to handle complex projects involving a host of technical, environmental and workforce challenges. To bring the field into production, Chevron recruited about 2,300 Bangladeshi workers, who by June 2007 had logged more than 12 million work hours on the project.
Chevron also produces natural gas from the Jalalabad and Moulavi Bazar fields, both of which have been producing near full capacity. We continue exploration efforts in Block 7 in southern Bangladesh.
