New Gas Supply Schedule Timings
Under the new gas supply schedule, SNGPL will provide gas in three designated time slots throughout the day:
- 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM: This morning slot will allow consumers to prepare breakfast and use gas for other early morning tasks.
- 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM: The midday window will cater to consumers’ lunch and other cooking needs.
- 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM: The evening time slot will help households with cooking dinner and other essential activities.
By providing gas during these specific hours, SNGPL aims to distribute the available gas supply more efficiently across different regions, ensuring full pressure during these peak times.
Why is the Schedule Important?
Gas consumption typically rises in the winter season as households rely more on gas for heating, cooking, and hot water needs. As temperatures drop, the demand for gas surges, putting a strain on the supply system. In response to this seasonal increase in demand, SNGPL has implemented this new gas supply plan to ensure that consumers can manage their daily activities without interruptions.
Adjustments in Gas Distribution
The changes in the gas supply schedule are in line with government directives to manage natural gas resources efficiently. SNGPL representatives emphasized that the company would maintain full pressure during the designated hours to meet customer needs. The revised timetable is expected to help stabilize gas usage, especially in regions like Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and other parts of Pakistan, which experience higher gas consumption during the winter.
Serving Millions of Customers
SNGPL currently serves over 7.22 million customers across various regions, including Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The new winter schedule aims to improve the gas distribution system and ensure that every household receives gas at full pressure when needed most.
