"As soon as they get there, they will search and verify the information," Commodore Rashed Ali, director of Bangladesh navy intelligence, told CNN.
Bangladesh Navy has resumed the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.
Adelaide-based GeoResonance claimed earlier this week that it may have found the wreckage of the crashed Malaysian jet in the Bay of Bengal.
The Joint Agency Coordination Centre heading the search for the Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 yesterday dismissed marine exploration company GeoResonance's claim.
Reports said BNS Bangabandhu and BNS Anusandhan began scouring the sea from Tuesday night but the navy official said, "we are yet to get anything to report you".
The Australian company said that electromagnetic fields captured by their airborne multispectral images some 190 kilometres off Bangladesh coast showed evidence of aluminum, titanium, copper and other elements.
It said the elements could be of the missing Boeing 777-200 which disappeared from radar on March 8.
"The company is not declaring this is MH370, however it should be investigated," GeoResonance had said.
Reports back then said faint electronic signals sent to satellites from the missing Malaysian jetliner showed it might have been flown thousands of miles off course before running out of fuel over the Indian Ocean.
The renewed search was launched as experts said they have little choice but to check out the Australian company's claim.
The Beijing-bound Malaysia Airlines flight MH370- carrying 239 people, including five Indians, an Indo-Canadian and 154 Chinese nationals - had mysteriously vanished on March 8 after taking off from Kuala Lumpur.
