„ormation of Oil and Gas
m § rock that has produced oil and gas is known
as Source rock
m Marine plants and animals die and sink to the
bottom seabed
m there is no oxygen present to break the organic
remains
m §s the sediment pile becomes deeper the organics
within it are subjected to heat and pressure which
leads to formation of oil and then gas
atural Gas
m Natural gas (methane) is the tiniest pieces (fractions)
of the oil molecules.
m These are so small that they do not stick together well
enough to be a liquid, and so they are gaseous.
m For this reason Natural Gas is almost always found
with crude oil.
m Natural Gas can sometimes be found on its own
m Oil is always accompanied by some natural gas.

Oil and gas resources of Pakistan
m §ccording to Oil and Gas Journal (OGJ), Pakistan had
proven oil reserves of 300 million barrels in January 2006
m The majority of produced oil comes from proven reserves
located in the southern half of the country,
m Pakistan produced an average of 58,000 bbl/d of crude oil
m according to the 2008 Energy Survey, Pakistan consumed
an average of 362.38 thousand barrels a day of oil in 2007.

is the biggest natural gas field in
Pakistan.
m ut is located near Sui in Baluchistan. The gas field was
discovered in the late 1952
m Sui gas field accounts for 26% of Pakistan's gas
production
m §ccording to the Geological Survey of Pakistan
(GSP), it was estimated that there are reserves of 19
trillion cubic feet of gas and 6 trillion barrels of oil
in Baluchistan
