The state-owned Chittagong Urea Fertilizer Limited (CUFL) resumed its production nearly nine months after it was shut down due to acute gas crisis. 

 

Karnaphuli Gas Distribution Company Limited (KGDCL) resumed gas supply to the fertilizer factory on the day. CUFL sources said it will take at least seven days to resume production at full capacity.

 

Initially, the KGDCL supplied a nominal quantity of gas to resume the operation of the plant. Gradually, the volume of gas will increase to the demand for 51 mmcft daily.

 

According to CUFL sources, the production in the industry was suspended on December 22 last year due to shortage of gas.  Production in the industry remained suspended for three years from 2014 and resumed fertilizer production on October 29 in 2017.
