KARACHI: <\/strong>In a significant development for Pakistan’s energy sector, the Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) has announced the discovery of new gas and condensate reserves in Khairpur district of Sindh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a letter to the Pakistan Stock Exchange, OGDCL said gas and condensate were discovered at the Bitrism North West-1 well in Khairpur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the company, the well tested 12.8 million standard cubic feet of gas and 175 barrels of condensate per day. The discovery was made in the Basal Sands of the Lower Goru Formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OGDCL said drilling of the well began on August 21, 2026, and it was drilled to a depth of 3,732 metres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company is the operator of the exploration licence with a 95 percent working interest, while Government Holdings (Private) Limited (GHPL) holds the remaining 5 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OGDCL said efforts are under way to connect the newly discovered reserves to the national gas system at the earliest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the company, the discovery will add to the country’s gas reserves and help narrow the gap between energy demand and supply.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
