Gas crises and its solution
1 like273 views
The document discusses Pakistan's gas crisis and potential solutions. It identifies four main factors contributing to the crisis: home users, CNG stations, industries, and mismanagement. For each factor, it provides details on their role in the crisis and proposes solutions. Key solutions proposed include banning new gas connections; implementing load shedding for homes, CNG stations and industries; shifting industries to alternative energy sources; improving management through removing corruption and establishing an independent regulatory body. The goal is to balance gas availability and demand through restrictions until new sources of gas can be secured.
Gas crises and its solution
- 1. RIPHAH INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY RESEARCH GAS CRISES AND ITS SOLUTION BY: MOEZZA MIR 12/19/2011
- 2. GAS CRISES AND ITS SOLUTION Pakistan is one of those countries who is caught in different serious energy crisis and gas is one of the big crisis for Pakistan .This topic includes identification of gas crisis and its solution. We can divide gas crisis into four factors 1. Home Users 2. CNG Station 3. Industries 4. Miss Management HOME USERS Home Users is one of big and important factor of gas users who enjoy of the available gas resource as users .Home Users use gas for cooking, for hot water in various purpose, Heater in winter Home Users become part of gas crisis as follow: Giving new large number of connections in new areas just for political needs. Using of gas heater rather than warm clothes .Excess usage of gas geezers. CNG USERS CNG meets the big fuel necessarily of transport .It is a source of energy competitively cheaper in price them other sources like pet ,diesel etc .CNG also plays an important part in gas crisis .Issuance of CNG station licenses unlimited and without policy is on basis of political apprises .Usually it can be seen in populated areas that CNG stations become a problem of gas shortage issuance of licenses 7 to 8 even an area of 1 km is worst example of gas corruption and the important is their location in population .Unlimited import of CNG kits in that case without considering the gas reserves in hand through this policy users convert every kind of this vehicle into CNG kit .Never made a vehicle criteria that which class of vehicle is suitable for CNG it also become part of accidents ratio. Another reason is cheaper cast of CNG comparatively others energy sources pet, diesel etc
- 3. INDUSTRY Industry convert from other energy sources to CNG rapidly because of cheaper gas prices of high prices or less sources of other sources .Biggest industry of country convert these factories into gas quickly. The industries become part of gas crises due to above mention reason. Now they installed million dollars of CNG machinery .They cannot reverse it back. They are also playing important role in GDP and they cannot run without gas. MISS MANAGEMENT: M.M is a big or one of the biggest factors in gas crises because without considering gas reserves available in country granted the new n unlimited gas connections to new home users & new residential areas. Issuing new & unlimited licenses of CNG stations on the other hand ignoring how much reserves are available & populated areas. Like only IJP road have 17 CNG station stations in 4KM area. Same criteria is for whole country &worst example of M.M. Issuing license &grant permission to industry to convert their all infrastructure into gas & They spend millions of dollars in it .M.M reaches at this stage They never seriously consider to import gas from Iran and X-USSR countries. Who can provide on cheaper price & after that they need to issue those licenses? WHAT TO DO: Solution can be dividing in four parts. 1- Home USERS 2- CNG 3- INDUSTRY 4- MANAGEMENT HOME USERS: Give awareness through media and other medium of information to convert gas geezers into solar & use solar energy more and more. Load shedding from am to 11 am and between 3pm to 6 pm. Use warm clothes rather than gas heaters.& also ensure the availability the warm clothes in cheap prices . Ban on new gas connections in new areas on urgent basis until a new solution of availability of gas.
- 4. WHAT TO DO IN CNG SECTOR: Ban on new gas connections for CNG stations on urgent basis until a new solution of availability of gas. Propose vehicle criteria that which kind of vehicles is suitable for CNG Kits. Urgently calls a meeting of CNG association representation from all over the Pakistan & after a detail discussion and mutual understanding propose a suitable load shedding in all country for the two various days & various timing until new resources identify. Suggest for the change the CNG compress timing in populated areas between 9 am to 11 am and 3 pm to 6 pm. What Can Be Done In Industry? Ban on new gas connections in new industry on urgent basis until a new solution of availability of gas. Propose & make industry criteria that which one industry & how much gas can consume in a certain time. Arrange a round table conference of industry holders from all over the country and after detail discussion & mutual understanding shift industry away from the populated areas & convert from gas to solar, wind hydral and other sources of industry. ROLE OF MANAGEMENT: By the collaboration & consultation of research dep’t management should search &dig new resources. Get gas from Iran and X-USSR countries to protect industry. Remove miss management. Remove corruption. Dissolve Sui northern gas pipelines limited and Sui southern pipelines limited, & make one supervisory dep’t under which small units forms for all over the Pakistan. Establish a selection board who appoint management team only on basis of merit, honesty & trust worthy.
