Mari Petroleum Company Limited (MARI), one of Pakistan’s leading oil exploration and production firms, stated on Friday that it had started supplying gas from Phase-II of Sachal Gas Processing Complex (SGPC), formerly known as GTH Gas Processing Facilities.
“We are pleased to announce that MARI has successfully completed the construction of SGPC Phase-II facilities to process low Btu gas from Goru-B reservoir of Mari Gas Field, Daharki, Sindh,” said the company in its notice to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX).
The processing facilities are still being phased-in and being tested for performance, according to the company.
“After processing, 50 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of pipeline specification gas is being achieved and the company is supplying around 47.5 MMSCFD of processed gas to Sui Northern Gas Pipeline Company Limited (SNGPL), while the remaining 2.5 MMSCFD is consumed as fuel gas to operate the plant,” read the statement.
MARI shared that the gas is being supplied via its own 20-inch, 25-km-long, cross-country gas transmission pipeline connecting SGPC to SNGPL valve assembly (QV -2) at Muhammadpur.
“MARI will continue commissioning and performance testing of the remaining facilities,” it said.
Earlier this month, MARI announced the discovery of gas reserves from its exploratory well Mari Ghazij-1, located in Mari Development and. Production Lease (Mari D&PL) in Sindh.
