Topline Securities brokerage house released a report on production trends of oil and gas in the second quarter of the fiscal year 2020-21 (October to December 2020), showing that oil production fell by 6 percent while gas production decreased by 4 percent.

The report also shows that five oil fields and four gas fields were added during the period in concern.

Pakistan’s Oil production during 2QFY21 fell by 6 percent YoY to 76,331 barrels of oil per day (bopd). This decrease happened primarily due to a decline in production of Tal block fields like Mardankhel and Makori Deep by 27 percent and 31 percent YoY, respectively.
