After substantial completion of expansion program under GIREP-I, SSGC has embarked upon the execution of Gas Infrastructure and Rehabilitation Expansion Programme-II as apart of its five year core investment programme to provide the requisite infrastructural capability and reliability commensurate with the anticipated expansion needs of its franchise area through effective utilization of the indigenous gas resources including Sawan/Miano and additional gas from Bhit and ZamZama and the expected availability from fields located in the blocks of Zarghun , Khipro and Sanjhoro. In the 5 years from 2004-05 SSGC is going to spend estimated Rs 12 billion on GIREP-II & QPCEP-III with the normal expansion of gas transmission and distribution system involving the extension of transmission & distribution network by around 700 Kilometers excluding the project still at conceptual stage.
