The government has reshuffled the leadership of two key state-owned energy corporations, appointing Md Erfanul Haque as chairman of Bangladesh Oil, Gas and Mineral Corporation (Petrobangla) and Md Rezanur Rahman as chairman of Bangladesh Petroleum Corporation (BPC).
The appointments were confirmed in a notification signed on Monday by Joint Secretary Abul Hayat Md Rafique of the public administration ministry’s deputation-1 wing.
The order said the postings would take immediate effect in the public interest.
The reshuffle follows a series of rapid changes at BPC.
On Jan 29, then chairman Md Amin Ul Ahsan was made an officer on special duty (OSD).
Three days later, on Feb 1, Additional Secretary Md Rafiqul Alam was given charge of the post as an additional responsibility.
Within 24 hours, however, a fresh order appointed Rezanur Rahman as BPC chairman.
The moves mark a simultaneous shake-up at the top of two of the country’s most important energy bodies.
