Gas supply to some of the areas of Sindh and Balochistan will be affected as one of the feeder lines supplying gas to Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) is facing a leakage.
The gas transmission company, in a alert on Facebook, said that a Gambat GPF IV feeder line was found to have a leakage due to which the system is experiencing a gas shortage of 38mmcfd.
The alert added that a team of Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) has begun pipeline repair which is expected to be completed within 20 hours.
"Due to this reason, some areas in Sindh and Balochistan will face low gas pressure. Inconvenience is regretted," said the SSGC.
According to The News, the SSGC last week said it was implementing a gas pipeline augmentation and expansion plan in Karachi and adjoining areas to ensure enhanced gas pressures and supplies.
The SSGC recently commissioned two projects — a pipeline project from Sheedi Goth to Future Colony and a pipeline from Azeempura to Jam Sadiq Ali Bridge.
SSGC Managing Director Imran Maniar reiterated the company’s commitment towards enhanced gas supply and pressures.
