On February 19, 2026, the Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) announced a significant gas and condensate discovery at the Dars West-3 well in Sindh's Tando Allah Yar district. The well, drilled to a depth of 2,100 meters in the C-Sands of the Lower Goru Formation, produced an impressive 9.70 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of gas and 580 barrels per day (BPD) of condensate during testing. The wellhead flowing pressure was recorded at 1,725 pounds per square inch, indicating a robust hydrocarbon potential. OGDCL holds a 77.5% working interest in the Dars West Development and Production Lease, with the remaining 22.5% owned by Government Holdings Private Limited. The company emphasized that these results reflect its ongoing commitment to enhancing domestic oil and gas production through rigorous reservoir evaluation and field development activities. As stated in the ProPakistani report, "The test results confirm the strong hydrocarbon prospectivity of the Lower Goru C-Sand reservoirs in the Dars West area."
