Guys clear your facts
1- Failed well doesn’t mean no hydrocarbons.
2- Pressure kick is not a good news for health of offshore well. It s treated as a threat.
3- Sideways drilling is an alternate option when vertical drilling is risky and detailed seabed samples are required.
4- There are...
Couple of years back I visited few sites in Pakistan controlled Arabian Sea. We went to observe some geological formations in deep sea. Methane activity was clearly observed around current drilling site. Sea basin around the area of highlight has properties that ask well maintenance over budget...
They don’t import LNG, most of it is created by the sewage wastes that undergoes biological decomposition. In case of miles covered per dollar spent diesel has the best efficiency and worst atmospheric effects.
Indeed public transport is so bad that it encourages people to buy cars and bikes...
Indeed United Nations’ Commission on Limits of Continental Shelf (UNCLCS) reviews the decision of any coastal country to claim the land up to 350 tsqkms. If not then resources are being actually explored and exploited by international seabed authority ISA. This institution has contractors...
Whole lot of public buses in Stockholm run on gas as it’s cleaner. I wonder if your opinion is backed by any logic. Industry / Automobiles usage depends what are your needs.
I think it’s a healthy discussion and none is believing the rumours spread by media.
Land is claimed by none rather it’s seabed we are talking about. Orions aircraft are helping in surveillance and security of the patch, so it’s no longer international community’s headache. Recently the Indian...
“Following the acceptance of the claim, Pakistan’s offshore territory of 240,000sqkm would expand by another 50,000sqkm allowing the country to benefit from the natural resources contained in it.”
Stronger your presence better your claim.

The political situation of this block is very interesting. Remember when America provided us Orion aircrafts back in 2000s which increased our sea water territory? It was only after we vowed to auction new blocks to ENI.
Remember the taliban attack which completely destroyed one of our onions at...
Pakistan has one of the worst air atmosphere. Gas is considered a cleaner burner w.r.t oil. Thanks that we have CNG or it could have been worse. Gas is not for cooking parathas and qorma everyday.
Reserves being discovered doesn’t mean production in continuous. Wells will be dug after proper sample reports return from Milan Italy in May 2019. Pressure kick recorded indicates gas reserves rather than oil.
Imagine our last 40 years of dirt cheap gas, how much did we progressed ? When gas...
The reserves were handed to OGDCL in 2006 which were later transferred to ENI in 2007. Zardari and Italy and oil. You get the idea ;)
ENI later invited ExxonMobil to Pakistan which now has acquired 25% shares in offshore drilling in Pakistan.
There must be commissions involved for zardari as...
I think the way international community is investing in oil refineries around gawadar the oil reserves are huge but kept under wrong impression for safety until ExxonMobil was involved.
UAE Qatar Saudi Arabia and Iran have promised oil refineries in gawdar during different times.
