Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL) has commenced oil production at its Dhok Sultan-03 well, located in the Dhok Sultan Block in District Attock, Punjab. The production, which began on November 1, 2025, is part of an Appraisal and Extended Well Testing (EWT) arrangement.
According to a news report, PPL, as the operator of the block, holds a 75% working interest, with Government Holdings (Private) Limited (GHPL) owning the remaining 25%. The production setup efficiently manages both oil and gas streams: the produced oil is processed at the Dhok Sultan Oil Handling Facility, while gas is transported to the Meyal Gas Processing Facility for treatment and distribution.
Oil produced from the Dhok Sultan-03 well is sold to Attock Refinery Limited (ARL), while gas sales are directed to Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL), the designated offtaker.
The operation has the potential to ramp up production to 1,400 barrels of oil per day, alongside 2.5 million standard cubic feet of gas and approximately 15 tonnes of LPG daily.
PPL reaffirmed its commitment to energy security, stressing that ongoing exploration and development initiatives, like Dhok Sultan-03, are essential for the country’s long-term energy resilience and economic growth.
