Introduction
1.1 Introduction
The growing role of energy sector in facitating and expeding economic,social
developmentbis now being recognized by most of developing countries.Energy is therefore
incorporates an important part of the growing business activity.This study content
includesthe overall activities of the company and use of those activities in gas sector. With
Socio-economic development of the ccountry demand for energy is rising very fast.
Government is highly aware and active for increase of energy supply which is indispensible
for continuation of country's progress. Over the last five years, Government has
accomplished various infrastructure development and technical building in the energy sector
that is gas and coal sector. Exploration and production activities are primarily carried out by
the Petrobangla.Petrobangla (Bangladesh Oil,Gas & Mineral Corporation) is a goverment-
owned national oil company of Bangladesh.Petrobangla was founded in 1985 by merging
two goverment organization,Bangladesh Oil & Gas Corporation(BOGC) and Bangladesh
Mineral Development Corporation(BMEDC).Petrobangla explores,produces,transports and
sells 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. Petrobangla is responsible for overall corporate planning for the
gas sector. The relevant specific companies implement most of the investment plans but the
final decision and approval authority lies with Petrobangla. The national economic strategy
and the role of energy sector embedded in it guide the corporate planning of Petrobangla.
Petrobangla has formulated a plan that includes the whole range of activity from exploration
to marketing, taking in to cognizance both the public sector and private sector operators.
Petrobangla markets gas to various customers through its marketing companies. There are
now five marketing companies operating in their respective franchise areas. The companies
are Titas Gas T & D Company Ltd., Bakhrabad Gas System Ltd., Jalalabad Gas T & D
System Ltd., Pashchimanchal Gas Co. Ltd., Karnafuli Gas Distribution Co. Ltd. Over the
last five years gas production has been increased by 895 million cubic feet daily by
drilling/work over/production increased from 44 wells. Natural Gas is the most important
source of energy in our country as it accounts for about 80% of the total commercial energy
of the country. At present, about 37% of natural gas production is used as fuel for electricity
generation. Overdependence on the natural gas must be reduced as the present reserve is not
sufficient enough to support the country for long term economic growth. Overall, in long
term, an intelligent mix of the different available energy sources can enable Bangladesh to
ensure a sustainable economic growth of the country. Right conditions and framework at
policy and regulatory level is a must.

analysis of reporting practices in some cases.
 There are needed enormous times to accomplish this internship program successfully,
but the allocated time 3 months.
 Unavailability of the reference books.
 Sometimes I could not take some relevant information from concerning officers and
employees because of their busy time.
 If I could take interview of more respondents, my study could be more truthful.

Company Overview
2.1 History and Functions of JGTDSL

Sylhet Gas Fields Limited (SGFL), a company of Bangladesh Oil, Gas and Mineral
Corporation (PETROBANGLA) under the Ministry of Power, Energy and Mineral Resources
is the pioneer in the discovery and production of natural gas and mineral oil in the country.
Though this Company was incorporated on 8th May, 1982, its history of production and sale
of natural gas dates back to 1960 under the umbrella of its predecessor, erstwhile Pakistan
Petroleum Limited (PPL), which discovered gas at Sylhet Well No. 1 at Haripur in Sylhet
District in the year 1955. It was the first discovered hydrocarbon gas field in the Country.
In 1960, commercial production of gas commenced for the first time in the country by
supplying about 4 million cubic feet of gas per day to Chhatak Cement Factory which
heralded a new era in respect of production and use of natural gas in this region. It was
landmark in the use of natural gas as an industrial prime-mover.
In 1961, transmission of gas from Sylhet Well No. 3 commenced to Fenchuganj Fertilizer
Factory through a 30 mile long 8 inch dia pipe line at the rate of 20 million cubic feet per
day. This was a turning point in our industrial development since natural gas was used as raw
material in industry. In fact, it was the beginning of an era which paved the way for a
promising future.
On 23rd December 1986, the long cherished dream of the country came true with the first Oil
find in Well No. 7 at Sylhet (Haripur) Field. The Discovery gave a new impetus and opened a
new horizon hope for exploration of mineral oil in the country.
At present, the Company has under its umbrella 5 gas fields namely Sylhet (Haripur),
Kailashtilla, Rashidpur, Beanibazar and Chhatak with 11 producing gas wells. A condensate
fractionation plant at Rashidpur has been installed and started production from 01 August,
2009.
Fractionation plants having capacity 3750 barrel per day installed at Rashidpur to produce
motor spirit, octane, diesel and kerosene.

Knowledge Gained During BBA Program
I am a student of Bachelor of Business Administration(BBA).This program contains 12
semesters including internship.1st to 11th semester deal with educational activities, and 12th
semester requires internship.
As a student of BBA program,I gained a variety of knowledge through the class lectures,text
book,assignment,presentation,class test,quiz,viva,exams etc. While concluding my internship
in JGTDSL,some of this knowledge was very helpful which Iapplied in my internship.
During my internship,I found this knowledge very essential for practical professional life.

5.1 Principles of Finance

As a student of Finance,I can see lots of things how these courses applied in company.
Finance is a study, that describes how to collect funds at minimum cost and utilization of
those funds at maximum return.The key point of finance is the time value of money,which
refers to A Currency Today Is Worth More Than A Currency Tomorrow. Finance related
courses basically helped me by the following ways-
 In JGTDSL,all ratios like current ratio,quick ratio,receivable turnover,profit
margin,Earnings Per Share (EPS) etc. I learnd from Finance related courses.So it was
easy to understand,how these courses are applied in JGTDSL.
 In Finance course,I learned about deposites, loans, accounts etc.
 When I joined the JGTDSL,I wrote many cheques,bills.I learned how to write
different cheques like bearer cheque, crossed cheque etc.

5.2 Principles of Accounting

In the Accounting courses,I broadly understand the accounting system and procedures of my
organization.The Accounting is essential to business,and has been called the ‘Language of
Business’ because it is the means by which business communicates their activities to
investors,creditors and other stakeholders.
Accounting that provides information to people outside the business entity is called Financial
Accounting.

Cost Accounting is the process of collecting,analyzing,summarizing and evaluation various

alternative courses of action.

Management Accounting is concerned primaryly with providing a basis for making

management or operating decisions.
  In my Company,all the transactions are maintained by double entry system,which I
learned broadly in my accounting related courses.So it was very easy to
understand,what side should be debit and what side should be credit,when a
transaction is occurred.
 I have learned different types of statements in my Accounting courses,those
knowledges gave me an advantage in making the Journal,Ledger,Trial Balance and
Balance Sheet of JGTDSL.
 Bank reconcile is an important segment in any organization,The intermediate
Accounting course helped my to understand the Bank Reconcilation of different
sections of JGTDSL.

5.3 Principles of Marketing

In the BBA program, I have completed two courses of marketing named ‘Principles of
Marketing’ and ‘Marketing Management’.These two courses teach me how to behave with
clients/consumers that I performed my internship.Marketing courses basically helped me by
the following sectors-
 In marketing courses,I broadly learned that every business or organization has some
products or services.So when I joined JGTDSL,it was very easy to me to find out
what kind of services are available in JGTDSL.
 I learned about different types of customers in my academic courses.As JGTDSL is a
different types of organization, its customer category is also different.

5.4 Principles of Management

In this course I have learned about different management principles e.g
planning,organizing,leading,controlling.Having a firm grasp of the principles helped me
analyzing the issues the planning dept. faces,the chain of command,and the alternative
courses of actions etc. The management courses helped me by following ways-
 In my academic courses,I learned deeply how to manage human resources,how to
motivate their performance etc. So when I was joining in JGTDSL,I saw that there
were so many types of motivation program,trianing program arranged by managing
committee.My academic knowledge here to understand the main objective of those
programs.
5.5 Principles of Economics

The theory of supply and demand is an organizing principle for explaining how prices
coordinate the amounts produced and consumed.The law of demand states that,in
general,price and quantity demanded in a given market are inversely related.That is,the
higher the price of a product,the less of it people would be prepared to buy of it.As the price
of a commodity falls,consumers move toward it from relatively more expensive goods.

5.6 Organizational Behavior

The course named ‘Organizational Behaviour’ was included in the syllabus of BBA
program.Organizational Behavior is a field of study that investigates the impact that
individuals,groups and structures have on behaviour within an organization.This course
helped me on developing an understandung of practical implications of various theories of
human behaviour at work.This course also helped me identifying the various personality
traits through observation and dealing in a appropriate manner with them,working as a team
member.This course played a vital role in my internship.This course taught me-

 How to behave formally within an organization.

 How to express feelings in an organization.
 Leadership,motivation,teamwork.
 Different personality issues.

5.7 Business Communication

The study of Business Communication teaches me about the communication channels,how to
interact with customers,negotiate with suppliers etc.I applied that knowledge to understand
the communication channels of JGTDSL.
5.8 Business Research
The Business Research course has been the most useful course while preparing this
report.Right from the observational study,collecting primary data,analyzing secondary
data,taking formal and informal interviews Business Research course has helped throughout
the whole period.Following the ways in which I got benefited the most-
 Data collection (Primary & Secondary).
 Selecting relevant and legal data sources based on the purpose of the report.
 Maintaining the proper guidelines of the report.
 Filtering and interpreting the collected data on the basis of need.
  Using right information in right place.

5.9 Banking and Insurance

The course Banking and Insurance is an important course in Finance.I learned many
important things from this course and I applied my academic knowledge acquired from BBA
program.I also knew about the loan and advances from the course.I also learnt the types of
cheque,features of cheque which was very essential information for me,as an intern.I learnt
the apparent tenor of a cheque which are date, sum payable(both in fig. and
word),signature,payee.Without these four things cheque are not be considered as valid.I
applied these knowledge in JGTDSL while writting cheques.
5.10 Computer Application
During the BBA program we had a course named ‘Introduction to Computer’,where I
learnt to use different types of computer applications.Besides this course during BBA, I learnt
to use different types of computer applications and softwares from our teachers like- MS
Excel, MS Word etc.These helped my tremendously in my internship period.
Deviation of Practical Working Experience from Theory
Theoretical knowledge is only the bookish knowledge and practical knowledge is the
implementation of that theoretical knowledge in the working place.
In working place I didn’t get a huge deviation between theoretical and practical knowledge.

In the time of studing, I thought that the activities are more difficult but when I was in
internship for three months,though I felt difficulty at first but after a few days,I realized that
practical knowledge is easier than the theoretical knowledge.Practically,I could complete
almost all the task easily.
