Industrial Update: SSGC Announces 24-Hour Gas Suspend
Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has officially announced a SSGC gas supply suspension for industrial consumers across its network. The temporary gas suspend will affect all industries, including captive power plants, for a period of 24 hours.
Gas Supply Suspension Schedule
According to the official statement, the suspension will follow this timeline:
- Start: Sunday, April 12, 2026, at 8:00 AM
- End: Monday, April 13, 2026, at 8:00 AM
Reasons for the Decision
The company cited the need to manage load across various sectors as the primary reason for the move. Furthermore, this measure allows the utility to maintain adequate line-pack pressure within the system.
While the utility aims to ensure fair distribution, industrial stakeholders have expressed concerns. Many fear that the SSGC gas supply suspension could lead to significant production losses and disrupt overall output during the work week.
Consequently, businesses are advised to plan their operations accordingly to minimize the impact of this one-day closure.
