Dhaka (Platts)--28 Jun 2016
Australian oil and gas exploration company Santos inked an agreement Monday with state-run Bangladesh hydrocarbon exploration company Bapex to carry out offshore drilling at the Magnama structure in the Bay of Bengal.
Bapex would now have the opportunity to carry out oil and gas exploration offshore for the first time under the JV with Santos, Bapex managing director Md Atiquzzaman told Platts Monday, boosting the Bangladesh's company technical know-how in offshore exploration.

Santos will have 51% of the JV, with Bapex holding a 49% stake, he said.
