ISLAMABAD (The Thursday Times) — Pakistan ki donon gas companies ne Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority se rawan maali saal ke liye apni ausat muqarrara gas qeematen barhane ki darkhwast ki hai, aur yeh izafa yakam July se lagu karne ka kaha hai.
Sui Southern Gas Company ne fi million British thermal unit (MMBtu) 366.75 rupay izafa manga hai, jis se us ki ausat muqarrara qeemat 2,071.75 rupay ho jaye gi. Sui Northern Gas Pipelines ne kahin kam, yani 10.40 rupay izafa manga hai, jis se qeemat 1,702 rupay se barh kar 1,712.40 rupay fi MMBtu ho jaye gi.
OGRA faisla karne se pehle donon darkhwaston par sama'at kare gi.
Bilon par kya asar parega
Muqarrara qeemat woh ausat nirkh hai jo OGRA is liye tay karti hai ke company apne takhmeena shuda akhrajaat poore kar sake, jise revenue requirement kaha jata hai. Yeh woh tariff nahin jo ghar aur karobar ada karte hain. Sarifeen ke tariff zumra-war tay hote hain aur sirf usi waqt badalte hain jab wafaqi hukoomat regulator ko hidayat de aur naye nirkhon ka notification jari kare.
July mein hukoomat ne donon companies ke liye OGRA ke sabiqa faislon ke bawajood sarifeen ke gas tariff mein koi tabdeeli nahin ki thi.
LNG aur sardiyan
Apni darkhwast mein SNGPL ne 60.147 arab rupay ke LNG service akhrajaat shamil kiye hain, jin ka takhmeena us ne 471.16 rupay fi MMBtu lagaya hai. Company ka kehna hai ke sardiyon mein maqami gas ki kami ke baais izafi intezamat karne hon ge, aur us ke andaze ke mutabiq is mausam mein LNG ke 16 cargo darkar hon ge.
Donon companies ne aalmi mandi mein khaam tel ki barhti qeematon ka hawala diya hai, jo darameedi gas ki laagat par asar dalti hain.
Yeh darkhwasten aise waqt aayi hain jab Pakistan ke purane gas fields ki kam hoti paidawar ke baais darameedi LNG par inhisar barh raha hai. Is se pehle is hafte petrol aur diesel ki qeematon mein do baar kami hui, aur hukoomat ne OGRA ki jagah PSO aur SSGC ko LPG ki qeematen tay karne ka ikhtiyar dene ka faisla kiya.
