With the month of Ramazan less than a week away, the Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) on Wednesday announced the gas supply schedule for the holy month.

SSGC’s main activity is the transmission and distribution of natural gas in Sindh and Balochistan.

“SSGC wishes a blessed Ramazan Mubarak to its esteemed customers and would like to assure them of uninterrupted gas supplies for Sehar and Iftaar preparations,” the company statement read.

“However, it must be kept in mind that around annual 10 per cent depletion in the country’s gas reserves has led to the widening gas demand-supply gap,” it added.
