PetroBangla (Bangladesh Oil, Gas & Mineral Corporation; পেট্রোবাংলা) is a government-owned national gas company of Bangladesh. It has the mandate to explore, produce, transport, manage and sell oil, natural gas and other mineral resources. It also concludes production-sharing agreements with international oil companies for exploration and development of oil and gas resources in Bangladesh.

History
PetroBangla was founded in 1985 by merging two government organizations, Bangladesh Oil & Gas Corporation (BOGC) and Bangladesh Mineral Development Corporation (BMEDC). To import liquefied natural gas, PetroBangla signed an agreement with Gunvor Singapore in 2018. In September 2019, QatarEnergy LNG delivered the first cargo of liquefied natural gas from a Q-Flex vessel to Petrobangla's Floating Storage and Regasification Unit off Bangladesh. In January 2020, PetroBangla and Gazprom signed a Memorandum of Understanding for strategic cooperation.

The group's current Chairman, Nazmul Ahsan, was appointed in December 2021 replacing Abdul Fattah who had become chairman in January 2020.
