Current and Expected Energy Production and Consumption within the Bay of Bengal Region: A Synopsis -- 3. Gas Potential at the Bay of Bengal and Implications for India’s Energy Security -- 4. Macroeconomic Challenges for the Growth of the Energy Sector in Bangladesh in the Context of Regional Integration -- 5. Energy in the Bay of Bengal Region: Myanmar’s Perspective -- 6. Marine-related Energy Resources in the Eastern Indian Ocean: Indonesian Perspective -- 7. Energy Trading and Singapore’s Role as a Hub -- 8. Bay of Bengal: Awakening of a Potential Giant Area -- 9. Energy Transportation Security in the Bay of Bengal -- 10. Ethical Business Practice or Camouflage? Energy and Mining Companies and Corporate Social Responsibility -- 11. Sustainable and Renewable Energy: Scenarios for the Future -- Index
Summary: The region comprising the countries around and in the proximity of the Bay of Bengal has remained relatively unexplored for energy. Following a few major discoveries of oil and natural gas, it is now becoming promising even as the energy requirements of a combined population exceeding 1.5 billion are growing exponentially. Here, the opportunities for regional cooperation are immense in a number of fields — production of oil and gas, their transportation, trading in energy, and production facilities for renewable energy. New initiatives are necessary to fully tap their potential.This region is indeed a new energy frontier which has only recently been discovered. No doubt major challenges will need to be overcome. Common stakes and growinginterdependence should, however, make it possible for the countries of the region to cooperate in the plans and programmes on energy.
