ISLAMABAD: The state-owned Oil and Gas Development Company Ltd (OGDCL) on Thursday announced a gas and condensate discovery at its Dars West-3 well located in Tando Allah Yar district of Sindh.

“During testing, Dars West-3 flowed at a rate of 9.70 million standard cubic feet per day of gas along with 580 barrels per day of condensate at a choke size of 36/64 inches,” the company said in a statement.

Pipeline laying is currently underway to connect the well to the KPD-TAY processing plant. Upon completion, the produced gas will be processed and injected into the SSGCL network, contributing to the national energy supply.
