Titas Gas

Titas Gas is a physics topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Titas Gas rather than just read about it. In short: The Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution PLC (Bengali: তিতাস গ্যাস Titas Gas) is the state-owned natural gas distributor in Bangladesh, with an 80% market share. As of 2020, it employed 2,100 staff and served 2.8 million domestic customers, 12,000 commercial customers, and 5,300 industrial customers.

Key takeaways

Titas Gas belongs to physics; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Titas Gas to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Titas Gas from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

The Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution PLC (Bengali: তিতাস গ্যাস Titas Gas) is the state-owned natural gas distributor in Bangladesh, with an 80% market share. As of 2020, it employed 2,100 staff and served 2.8 million domestic customers, 12,000 commercial customers, and 5,300 industrial customers. It is responsible for gas distribution in Dhaka and Mymensingh.

History Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution PLC was established on 20 November 1964 following the discovery of gas in Titas in 1962 in the then East Pakistan. On 28 April 1968, commercial activities started with the supply of gas to Siddhirganj Thermal Power Station through the Titas-Demra gas pipeline. The pipeline was constructed by East Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation. On 9 June 2008, the company was listed on the Dhaka Stock Exchange and on 19 June 2008 it was listed on the Chittagong Stock Exchange.

Location of the field The Gas field is located some 100 km away to the direction of northern-east from capital city of Bangladesh, Dhaka. It lies at the outskirts of Brahmanbaria town. This field was discovered by Pakistan Shell Oil Company in 1962. The structure is an elongate north–south asymmetrical anticline measuring about 19x10 square km with a vertical closure of 500 m. As per latest official re-estimation, total recoverable gas reserve of Titas gas field is 4,740 billion cubic feet (134 km3). Commercial gas production from this field was commenced in 1968 and till 31 August 2006 total 2,581.162 billion cubic feet (7.30904×1010 m3) gas has been produced. The wells are spread (surface location) at 6 (six) different locations stretched over about 8 km distance. At present maximum 475 million cubic feet (13,500,000 m3) of gas is produced daily from 16 wells of this field and processing through 5 nos. glycol dehydration and 6 nos. Low Temperature Separation (LTS) type process plants and supplied to the transmission pipelines of Titas Gas Transmission & Distribution PLC (TGTD PLC) and Gas Transmission Company Ltd. (GTCL). Condensate produced (540 bbl per day on an average) with gas as by-product is fractionated into MS (Petrol) and HSD(Diesel) through two fractionation plants.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Titas Gas

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Titas Gas claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In physics, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Titas Gas before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Titas Gas ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Titas Gas

In research: Titas Gas appears in physics research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Titas Gas in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Titas Gas is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1964 establishments in East Pakistan, Bangladesh stubs, Companies in the DSE 30 Index, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Titas Gas outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
