Gas Pipeline in Uch Power Plant Blows Up
Monday, February 3rd, 2014 9:42:14 by Ahmad MehdiThe gas pipeline that carries gas to the Uch power plant was blown up in Dera Murad Jamali, as reports claim.
There have been several such problems faced by Oil and Gas Development Company Limited as different terrorists have even targeted these pipelines so that the people of the area do not get any gas supply.
There is already a shortage of gas in Pakistan and this is going to cause more problems not only for people living in Uch but for others who live around the area and rely on gas from the Uch power plant.
The pipeline which has been blown was 18 meters in diameter. The OGDCL team has already been called to the location so they can fully repair the damage which was done to the pipeline.
Reports claim that the pipeline is going t take at least 3 days in order to get fully fixed. However, OGDCL team has stated that they are going to shift the load of this particular gas pipeline on another one which passes right next to it. However, that is still going to take some time for them.
Police claim that the pipeline was blown in a village named Allawaria.
