The revised arrangement has been introduced to ensure limited gas availability during peak consumption periods only. This statement reflects the recent changes made by SNGPL, which has reduced gas supply to just six hours a day, now distributed in two daily intervals.
Gas will primarily be supplied during breakfast and dinner hours, while the supply will be suspended in the afternoon. This decision comes as a response to low system pressure, which has been exacerbated by disruptions in liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports.
The ongoing gas crisis has been affecting households across the region, making it increasingly challenging to maintain a consistent gas flow during the newly established time slots. The situation has made it impossible for SNGPL to supply gas three times a day, leading to significant disruptions in routine domestic use.
Consumers are being urged to use gas carefully, as the reduced supply is expected to significantly impact daily life. Citizens have been advised to conserve gas, especially during the limited hours when it will be available.
As the crisis continues, SNGPL aims to manage demand effectively during these peak consumption periods. The utility company is working to address the challenges posed by the current supply situation, but details remain unconfirmed regarding any potential improvements in gas availability.
With the ongoing disruptions in LNG imports, the future of gas supply remains uncertain. SNGPL’s new schedule is a temporary measure aimed at alleviating some of the pressure on the system while ensuring that essential gas needs are met during critical times.
