Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) and Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) have announced their regular gas supply schedules in Pakistan for 2025, which are designed to ensure a steady supply of gas across the country. These schedules manage peak demand times and offer essential gas services to residential and commercial customers.
Gas Supply Schedule in Pakistan (2025)
SNGPL operates a schedule that covers major cities in northern Pakistan, such as Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore, and surrounding areas. The gas supply is divided into three key periods throughout the day:
- Morning: 6:00 AM – 9:00 AM
- Afternoon: 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM
- Evening: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
While gas is available during these periods, certain areas might experience low pressure or interruptions due to system maintenance or technical issues. The schedule is part of the government’s effort to balance supply and demand during peak usage hours, especially during the winter months when demand for heating is higher.
Winter Load Management by SNGPL
As part of its winter load management, SNGPL has restricted gas supply to certain sectors, including CNG stations and industrial units using gas as fuel, to ensure residential users have sufficient gas. This load management is essential to maintaining gas supply stability during colder weather.
SSGC Gas Schedule (2025)
SSGC, which covers southern Pakistan, including cities like Karachi and Quetta, has its own regular schedule for gas supply. SSGC aims to provide consistent service throughout the year, focusing on residential and essential sectors.
- Morning: 6:00 AM – 9:00 AM
- Afternoon: 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM
- Evening: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
SSGC also manages gas distribution to meet peak demand in the regions it serves, particularly in commercial and industrial areas.
