SSGCL Karachi Industrial Gas Shutdown Scheduled for January 11 is set to affect industrial units across Karachi. The Sui Southern Gas Company Limited (SSGCL) announced a 24-hour gas suspension from 8:00 AM on January 11 to 8:00 AM on January 12. This SSGCL gas suspension aims to ensure a steady residential and commercial gas supply and address ongoing gas pressure issues in the city.
The shutdown will impact numerous industrial areas in Karachi, causing a temporary industrial gas supply disruption. SSGCL advises industries to prepare for halted operations and adjust their load management plans. SSGCL clarified that daily load-shedding for homes and businesses from 10 PM to 5 AM will continue as usual. Residents experiencing low gas pressure can register complaints through the 24-hour helpline 1199.
This industrial gas supply halt comes amid a severe cold wave in Karachi. Increased demand for heating has strained the gas network, making this preventive shutdown necessary. SSGCL and SSGC asked the public not to spread fake news, which caused confusion last week. SSGCL shared official updates via social media and utility notifications to ensure accurate information.
Businesses should take precautions, such as limiting non-essential operations and checking backup systems. Industrial units can use the shutdown to perform minor maintenance or plan for uninterrupted production once the gas supply resumes. The SSGCL emphasized cooperation with both the media and the public to avoid misunderstandings during the gas outage for industries.
