Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) has announced a major oil and gas discovery at its exploratory well, Bobi Deep-1, located in District Sanghar, Sindh.
The discovery was made within the Bobi and Dhamraki Mining Lease, where OGDCL holds a 100% working interest and operates the project.
In a notice submitted to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Wednesday, the company said testing of the Lower Goru Formation’s massive sand reservoir yielded promising results.
A cased-hole Drill Stem Test (DST) produced 2,000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and 1.1 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMSCFD) at a choke size of 32/64 inch, with a wellhead flowing pressure of 1,050 psi.
The Bobi Deep-1 well was re-entered on May 3, 2026, to evaluate the hydrocarbon potential of the Lower Goru Formation. Drilled to a total depth of 3,305 metres in the Sembar Formation using OGDCL’s in-house technical expertise, the well marks the first hydrocarbon discovery from the Massive Sand play in the area.
The company said the discovery opens new exploration opportunities, strengthens Pakistan’s indigenous energy resources, and is expected to contribute to meeting the country’s growing energy demand while enhancing national hydrocarbon reserves.
