KARACHI, May 8, 2026: Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) has successfully commissioned Faiz X-1 Deep (Basal Sand) at its operated Gambat South Block in District Sanghar, Sindh. Production from Faiz X-1 Deep was ramped up in stages since its commissioning on February 25, 2026, gaining a current flow of approximately 3.6 MMscfd gas and 750 bpd condensate, following optimization of operational parameters.
Drilled in 2014, Faiz X-1 discovery could not be developed due to absence of nearby pipeline infrastructure, leaving the project uneconomical. Following the pipeline connectivity and technical and economic re-evaluation, Basal Sand interval was determined to be commercially viable to bring the well into production with installation of surface facilities and construction of ~ 4.5 km feeder line to connect the output to Gambat South Gas Processing facilities.
The increase in condensate supplies demonstrates PPL’s commitment to monetizing discoveries in a cost-effective manner, while contributing to meeting the country’s energy requirements.
