The sindh’s gas field Zamzama was endangered last week of flood water entering in to it after a breach of Tauri Bund, located some 70 kilometres from Guddu Barrage on the right side of the Indus River. An excerpt from Daily Times gives more details.
The Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has come to the rescue of Zamzama gas field and deployed men and heavy machinery to strengthen the highly vulnerable parts of the breach by covering it with sand.
The Zamzama gas field experienced flooding after a breach of Tauri Bund, located some 70 kilometres from Guddu Barrage on the right side of the Indus River.
In the wake of this development, SSGC Managing Director Dr Faizullah Abbasi and Sui Northern Gas Pipeline Limited (SNGPL) MD Abdul Rashid Lone visited the gas field and the areas around it on Wednesday to personally inspect the sudden inflow of floodwater and formulate a plan to utilise all possible resources to alleviate the damage in and around the field.
Dr Abbasi gave special instructions to Project Director (Special Projects) Arbab Mohammad Hashim to immediately deploy more manpower and heavy machinery to the affected area and closely monitor the flood situation around-the-clock. He instructed SSGC’s project director to expedite the process of strengthening the highly vulnerable parts of the breach by covering it with sand.
