Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (LSE:OGDC) (OGDCL) said it has discovered gas at the Sahito-1 exploratory well in the Khewari Exploration License, District Khairpur, Sindh Province, Pakistan.
“Based on wireline logs interpretation results, the sands of Lower Goru Formation (Massive sand) were tested through DST and yielded 17.2 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMSCFD) through choke size 32/64" at wellhead flowing pressure (WHFP) of 3390 pounds per square inch (psi),” the filing said.
The company said Sahito-1 was spudded on December 24, 2025, and drilled to a total depth of 3,870m TVD in the Sembar Formation using OGDCL's in‑house expertise as an exploratory effort.
“The discovery represents a major milestone, and this development is anticipated to play a vital role in reducing the national energy demand-supply gap through indigenous resources, while also contributing to the enhancement of hydrocarbon reserves of OGDCL, Joint venture partner and the country,” the company said.
