Sui Northern Gas Pipelines
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL), is the largest integrated natural gas company in North & Central Pakistan through an extensive network in Punjab and NWFP. SNGPL was incorporated as a private limited Company in 1963 and converted into a public limited company in January, 1964, and is listed on all the three Stock Exchanges of Pakistan. The Company has over 42 years of experience in operation and maintenance of high-pressure gas transmission and gas distribution systems. It has also expanded its activities to undertake the planning, designing and construction of pipelines, both for itself and other organizations.
SNGPL transmission system extends from Sui in Balochistan to Peshawar in North West Frontier Province (NWFP).
Most of the gas produced at Sui is provided to other provinces. Though significant royalties are paid for these resources, some local politicians accuse the rest of the contry of exploiting the Sui region.
