According to company officials, the discovery was made during exploratory drilling operations aimed at identifying new hydrocarbon reserves. Preliminary assessments indicate promising quantities of both crude oil and natural gas, raising expectations for increased domestic energy production.
The newly discovered reserves are expected to contribute to the country’s efforts to reduce dependence on imported fuel and improve energy security. Experts believe the find could support industrial growth and help meet rising energy demand in the coming years.
OGDCL stated that further testing and evaluation activities will be carried out to determine the full commercial potential of the discovery. Technical teams are currently analyzing data collected from the exploration site to estimate recoverable reserves and production capacity.
Energy sector analysts have welcomed the development, describing it as a positive sign for ongoing exploration efforts across the country. They noted that successful discoveries can encourage additional investment in Pakistan’s oil and gas industry.
Officials emphasized that continued exploration remains essential for strengthening the national energy supply and supporting long-term economic growth. The company is expected to provide further updates as appraisal and development work progresses.
The discovery highlights the potential of Sindh’s resource-rich regions and reinforces efforts to expand domestic energy production through advanced exploration and drilling activities.
