Chevron’s new president of Base Assets and Emerging Countries, Javier La Rosa, on Tuesday reaffirmed Chevron’s longstanding partnership with Bangladesh during meetings in Dhaka with key government officials.

‘I am pleased to be here in Bangladesh engaging with our valued government stakeholders on day one of my new role,’ said La Rosa.


During his visit, Javier La Rosa and Chevron Bangladesh managing director and president Eric M Walker met with power and energy adviser Fouzul Kabir Khan, EMRD secretary Mohammad Saiful Islam, Perobangla chairman M Rezanur Rahman, BIDA executive chairman Ashik Chowdhury, and special envoy to chief adviser for international affairs Lutfey Siddiqi, highlighting the progress of the interim government in improving the investment climate, said a press release.

‘We have a strong partnership with the government, Petrobangla and people of Bangladesh; a partnership that has supported Bangladesh’s energy security and fuelled economic growth for 30 years,’ said La Rosa, adding that they had been encouraged by the approach of the interim government to resolve the current challenges, which sent a positive signal to existing and potential investors.

‘Together, we can leverage our enduring partnership to work through any challenges and unlock new opportunities for Bangladesh’s energy sector,’ he mentioned.
