Oil and Gas Development Company (OGDC) on Wednesday announced a significant discovery of gas and condensate at Bitrism East-1 exploratory well, located in Khairpur district of Sindh.
The Bitrism East-1 well was drilled on June 30, 2025 and reached a depth of 3,800 metres in the Sembar Formation. The well was drilled using OGDC's in-house expertise in collaboration with its joint-venture partner Government Holdings (Private) Limited.
Based on wireline log interpretations, two Drill Stem Tests (DSTs) were conducted in the Lower Goru Formation, targeting Massive and Basal Sands. Both the first DST in the Massive Sand and the second test in the Basal Sand confirmed the presence of hydrocarbon.
The well has a combined production potential of 22.5 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd) of gas and 690 barrels per day (bpd) of condensate at a 32/64" choke.
