Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has appealed to the trade associations to request their respective members to curtail gas consumption of their business units voluntarily by 20 percent for certain period due to gas shortage.
According to a press release issued here on Tuesday SSGC has been receiving less gas supplies from the six gas fields namely Bhit, Sawan, Kadanwari, Latif, Miano and Badin fields since October 24, 2010 due to a technical problem in Kadanwari Purification Plant (which takes care of the Kadanwari, Latif and Miano fields), resulting in SSGC receiving a curtailed supply of 99 mmcfd gas. SSGC is, however, expecting that the Kadanwari Gas Field, will resume supply from October 27, 2010.-PR
