...Natural gas is a vital energy source for Pakistan. In FY2010, Pakistan consumed about 1.3 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas,all domestically produced and representing about half of primary energy consumption. Natural gas is transmitted and distributed by two companies: Sui Southern Gas Company Ltd. (SSGC) the sub borrower in this Project supplying Sindh and Balochistan, Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Ltd.(SNGPL) supplying Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Many large gas fields are in decline, and at current production forecasts, the country is at or near its peak production. Proven remaining reserves were estimated at 27.6 tcf in 2010. By international standards, and compared to oil products, natural gas is inexpensive in Pakistan, which lead to inefficient use. A critical challenge is The high level of unaccounted for gas (UFG). Pakistan has UFG in the gas pipeline system of more than 9 percent in SSGC's network and more than 11 percent in SNGPL's system. This compares to 1 2 percent in well run gas networks. Most of the UFG is caused by leakages from a corroded and under ‐ maintained pipeline system, but a significant part also stems from gas theft Fertilizer industry uses around 17% (which is equal to total household consumption in Pakistan so if they stop giving gas to these industries, household gas problem will be solved) of gas in Pakistan and Government has written agreement with them that no gas will be provided to them during three months i.e. Dec...

...Two of my long term goals would to open another business just by myself. And to obtain my bachlors degree. To open my own business first thing is to have the money to open it up and do it all by myself without having a co owner. This is something I have been wanting to do for a long time. I know what it takes to open one up for I am involved with one now. Just having to do it all by myself will make it much harder unless I hit the powerball. And to obtain my bachlors degree I just have to stick with it and not give up. I need to start getting down to it and get things done on time. I have a lot going on right now and I need to space my time out to where I can get everything done. To open my business I need to find a place first. Then obtain the funds to get everything started.

It will take a lot of planning and a step by step on what needs to get done first. For my bachelors I just need to keep doing what I am doing and that’s take a few classes at a time instead of craming myself with 5-6 classes. Take it one day at a...
