Islamabad: Gas supply to households has been restricted to cooking hours due to load management measures across the country.




Pakistan is facing growing uncertainty regarding LNG supplies from Qatar, prompting the implementation of gas load management for domestic consumers.




Authorities have limited residential gas supply to peak cooking times; the *force majeure* declared by the Qatari LNG company, Qatargas—following an incident at the Ras Laffan LNG production plant on March 4, 2026—has not yet been officially lifted.
