The holy month of Ramazan is near. The Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has announced its gas supply schedule for Sindh and Balochistan. This ensures uninterrupted service for customers during Sehar and Iftaar. However, the company warns of a growing demand-supply gap due to a yearly 10% decrease in gas reserves.
Gas Timings for Ramazan
To maintain smooth distribution, SSGC has introduced a pressure profiling strategy. This plan ensures a steady supply at crucial meal times.
Gas Availability Timings:
03:00 AM to 09:00 AM (Sehar)
03:30 PM to 10:00 PM (Iftaar preparation & evening cooking hours)
Gas Closure Timings:
09:00 AM to 03:30 PM
10:00 PM to 03:00 AM
