On August 4, a gas shutdown alert was issued for Karachi.

Gas supplies are temporarily stopped due to a significant infrastructure project.

This Sunday, August 4, residents of Karachi should brace themselves for a major disruption in their gas supply.

In various areas of the city, the business has declared a 12-hour gas service suspension from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The construction of a new 12-kilometer gas distribution pipeline with a 20-inch diameter is the reason for the temporary stoppage of gas supplies.

The goal of this renovation, according to SSGC, is to improve gas pressure in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.

Affected areas:

• Korangi Sectors 21, 28, 29, 36-B, 36-G, and 37-A

• Hashim Goth

• Mansehra Colony

• Allahabad Goth

• Surrounding areas, including industrial and domestic zones

SSGC's announcement follows recent disruptions in water supply across the city. The company has urged residents and businesses in these areas to plan accordingly to mitigate the impact of the gas suspension.

This infrastructure development is part of ongoing efforts to improve the overall efficiency and reliability of the city’s gas distribution network.
