OGDC is the operator of the Bitrism Exploration License with 95% working interest, along with Government Holdings (Private) Limited (GHPL) holding 5% working interest.<br \/>\nThe Bitrism East-1 well was spudded on June 30, 2025, and drilled to a depth of 3,800 meters in the Sembar Formation. The well was drilled using OGDC\u2019s in-house expertise in collaboration with its joint venture partner GHPL. Based on wireline log interpretations, two Drill Stem Tests (DSTs) were conducted in the Lower Goru Formation, targeting Massive and Basal Sands.<br \/>\nThe first DST in the Massive Sand and the second DST in the Basal Sand both confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons. The well has a combined production potential of 22.5 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of gas and 690 barrels of condensate per day (BCD) at a 32\/64\u201d choke.<br \/>\nThis discovery adds to OGDC\u2019s hydrocarbon reserves and underscores the company\u2019s commitment to enhancing Pakistan\u2019s energy security. It will also contribute towards reducing the gap between energy supply and demand through indigenous resources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISLAMABAD Oil &#038; Gas Development Company Limited (OGDC) on Wednesday announced a significant discovery of gas and condensate at Bitrism East-1 exploratory well, located in District Khairpur, Sindh.
