Pakistan’s energy sector received a significant uplift with the recent discovery of a new gas reservoir in the Khairpur Latif block of Sindh province.

The well, which began drilling in May 2024, is now yielding 11.27 million standard cubic feet of gas daily.

This breakthrough, achieved through a collaboration between Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) and two private firms, marks a promising addition to the country’s natural gas reserves.

It is anticipated to alleviate Pakistan’s ongoing natural gas shortages and enhance energy stability by boosting production levels.
