Bad news for Gas consumers
Shares
According to Sohail Siddiqui, there is a concern of gas shortage in Sindh for limited hours due to a major breakdown in the electricity supply in the Kund Passaki gas field, resulting in a significant reduction in gas production.
The provincial government has reconstituted the board of Sui Northern Gas. Gas supply to Karachi and Sindh from the gas field has decreased by 100 MMCFD, with a 14% reduction in the gas received by Sohail Siddiqui.
He also mentioned that technical issues have caused a 20 MMCFD reduction in gas production in the Naimat Basal gas field. Sohail Siddiqui further stated that the Sui Southern system is also affected due to the significant reduction in gas supply, but gas load management will prioritize domestic consumers.
