KARACHI: Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDC) is stepping up efforts to unlock value from its stranded and low-BTU gas resources, with a renewed focus on fast-tracking production from challenging assets such as the Zin gas field.
As part of this strategy, OGDC is engaging with the Balochistan government to explore the utilisation of Zin’s low-BTU gas for industrial clusters and fertiliser projects. The initiative aims to support regional economic development while optimising the use of indigenous energy resources that have remained underutilised, the company said in a statement on Tuesday.
Further advancing this initiative, OGDC has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Uch Power Limited to jointly assess the technical and commercial potential of using Zin gas for power generation. The collaboration is expected to facilitate energy solutions in areas with limited access to conventional fuel supplies.
