Gas supply suspended to 165 industrial unitsISLAMABAD: Gas supply has been suspended to 165 industrial units in October said Rashid Loan, MD of Sui Northern Gas Company.

Speaking at a media briefing after attending a meeting of Senate Standing Committee for Petroleum here Thursday, he said the suspension of gas supply to industrial units came sooner this year compared to last year’s gas load shedding which began in December.

MD SNGC said suspension of gas supply to fertilizer companies would have to be undertaken this year if Kohat fields failed to supply gas.

During the meeting, managing director OGDC, Zahid Hussein said that cases regarding 18 oil and gas exploration projects are under court trial which has been affecting the produce of 300 million MMBTU gas and 7,000 barrel oil per day.

He further said that Qadirpur and Sui fields are producing 1.65 billion MMBTU a day compared to 1.86 billion MMBTU per day last year.
