KARACHI: CNG stations in Sindh and Balochistan are to reopen at 11pm on Thursday, FTNews reported.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) had issued a statement announcing closure of CNG stations for 36 hours after suspected militants blew up a main pipeline near Jafarabad in Balochistan.
The incident had disrupted the fortnightly gas load management schedule of the SSGC. The damaged 18-inch diameter pipeline was supplying 114 million cubic feet per day (MMCFD) of natural gas to the Sui Southern Gas Company.
However, a spokesperson for the company told FTNews Thursday that repair-work on the pipeline had been completed and gas supply restored to the two provinces. Therefore, CNG stations in Sindh and Balochistan would reopen at 11pm on Thursday.
