The delivery windows are June 8-9, June 9-10, and June 14-15, according to a tender document.
RPGCL issued the tender to the 24 organizations that have signed the MSPA (master sale and purchase agreement) with Petrobangla for LNG supply on a spot basis.
The tender was issued on Monday, and it closes on May 7.
Including this tender, RPGCL issued nine tenders for a total of 22 spot LNG cargoes after QatarEnergy declared force majeure to its LNG buyers on March 4.
Qatar is the main LNG supplier to Bangladesh via long-term LNG deals.
RPGCL recently also issued an invitation to enlist additional spot LNG suppliers on behalf of the Ministry of Power, Energy & Mineral Resources.
The company extended the submission deadline twice, with the last running to April 30.
Bangladesh currently imports LNG via two FSRU-based facilities, both of which feature Excelerate Energy’s FSRUs.
The 138,000-cbm FSRU Excellence serves Bangladesh’s first LNG import facility, Moheshkhali Floating LNG or MLNG, operated by Petrobangla.
Excelerate’s 138,000-cbm FSRU Summit LNG serves as the second LNG import facility operated by Summit.
