LAHORE: Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) says it has so far no plan to start gas loadshedding in domestic or industrial sectors in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

“We have so far no plan of gas loadshedding in domestic or industrial sectors since there is no gap between demand and supply,” SNGPL Managing Director Amjad Lateef told Dawn on Monday.

He said at present the total gas demand and supply on average in domestic sector was around 500mmcfd, while the industrial sector’s total demand was over 300mmcfd these days.

“For this, the 210mmcfd LNG and 100mmcfd indigenous gas is being supplied to the industrial sector,” the MD said.

He said as winter had not set in yet, the gas demand and supply was smooth.
