The Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has announced a winter gas supply schedule for domestic consumers in Sindh and Balochistan, limiting daily supply to three fixed time slots.

According to the schedule announced on November 4, households will receive a total of eight hours of gas in every 24 hours, with supply prioritised around meal preparation times.

The announced timings are:

• Breakfast: 6:30 am to 9:00am
• Lunch: 12:00 pm to 2:30pm
• Dinner: 6:00 pm to 9:00pm

An SSGC spokesperson said the arrangement follows federal government directives and is intended to manage gas demand during the winter season.

However, consumers in several parts of Karachi have reported low pressure and interruptions even during the designated breakfast hours, raising concerns about the reliability of supply.

The announcement comes as households prepare for higher gas demand in the colder months. Consumers will now have to plan cooking activities around the notified supply windows.

The schedule applies to domestic consumers across SSGC’s service areas in Sindh and Balochistan.
