Following in the footsteps of Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC), Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) has submitted a request to hike gas prices, seeking a substantial increase of 147%.
SNGPL’s proposal, presented to the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA), aims to implement the price hike by July 1, with a requested increase of Rs2646.18 per Metric Million British Thermal Unit (MMBtu). The company advocates for fixing the new average gas price at Rs4446.89.
Citing a revenue shortfall of Rs189.18 billion, SNGPL underscores the necessity for the price adjustment to address financial constraints.

It’s noteworthy that SSGC previously submitted a similar request to OGRA, seeking a further increase of Rs274.40 per MMBtu in gas prices. With both SSGC and SNGPL advocating for price adjustments, the gas market faces potential significant changes.
