ISLAMABAD: The government has cut the average sale price of re-gasified liquefied natural gas (RLNG) by more than 13 per cent month-on-month f or May 2025, delivering a significant cost reprieve to consumers and industries amid easing global oil benchmarks.
The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) slashed RLNG prices by 13.64 per cent for Sui Southern Gas Company Ltd. (SSGC) and 12.51 per cent for Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Ltd. (SNGPL), according to an official notification issued Tuesday. The revised prices take effect from May 1. The lower price is likely to help cut the cost of power generation, particularly from RLNG-based power plants.
RLNG price for the Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) consumers was slashed by $1.686/mmBtu, while for Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) clients, prices have been reduced by $1.716/mmBtu) over the previous month (April 2025). It set RLNG prices at $11.79/mmBtu for the consumers of SNGPL and $10.874/mmBtu for SSGC clients.
OGRA’s latest revision comes as Brent crude averaged $70.90 per barrel in April, down from $74.90 a month earlier. For May 2025, six cargoes are being procured at a slope of 13.37 percent of Brent, while four at 10.2 percent.
