Pakistan's second largest Natural Gas reservoir in Kirthar: Sindh

[/COLOR]

We get our strike fighter F-16 from USA, we get billions of dollars in aid from USA, lot of our military hardware is from USA, that would include things like Cobra Helicopters, PC-1 Orion aircraft etc. In addition most of our elite send their children to US for higher education. Also 100,000 of Pakistan have made USA their home and millions more would love to migrate if they could find a boat that they could hide in to take them to USA.

So, all in all I suspect our hypocracy index would not be elevated to any significant degree we were also to say to Uncle Sam "can we pretty please have the horizontal drilling trchnology"?

If they refused we could always burn a few more US flags !!!

Something I've been preaching ALL along. If you look at Pakistan's history....the US has ALWAYS stood by it. May be not to the expectations that the Pakistanis had. But it's been there. From Jets to Education to Roads to Healthcare to Government's salaries...the US has been provided for whatever was asked !!!! Sad part is...Pakistani leadership never let the flow of money and the idea of a better life down to its people. At the end, the same politicians rule Pakistan at the cost of bitchin* about the US. That's sad.
If you take a look around, over six decades.....how many 'arab brothers' or 'afghani or irani brothers' have stood by Pakistan? On and OFF (KSA) may be but NO ONE offered continuous support as the US did.
I think people on this forum (who agree with me and the post above mine) need to tell their friends, families, etc and make sense out of it. TRUST ME, a MODERATE Pakistan is in US's BEST interests. A failing and ailing Pakistan, plagues by Talibo-sclerosis (as I call it), will raise eye brows across the globe.
Pakistani population, like the Indian population (same genetics) is VERY smart. I think the smartness needs to realize their national interests. The US DOES enjoy VERY good relations with Turkey, Indonesia, UAE and Malaysia....all of these are Muslim countries. So the US doesn't have a 'problem' with muslim countries. Pakistan needs to understand that friends CAN HAVE different national security focuses. And they may not see eye to eye on everything. BUT they remain FRIENDS and keep working together. I think moderation, tolerance and advancement needs to be talked about in the streets of Pakistan so that the American sentiment can reduce in nature and a more productive relationship can be established. If you keep burning the American flag on tv and the Americans are seeing it....not sure how you score positive points. There is a non-emotional, democratic way to show your disagreements

I think with this discovery we should not stopped our plan to curb CNG rather we should make the process even fast to stop the usage of CNG and put this and other resources to House hold and industrial purposes which is facing immense shortages now a days.
 
is that same which was discovered in offshore karachi.

so curb the CNG for common public while the industrialists who make large profits by selling expensive stuff to the common man should get easy excess to it??
 
Congrats!!! hope this discovery of gas field will materialize in to production field.
 
this wouldnt effect iran-pak pipeline, but pipeline is less likly due to VERY EXPENSIVE GAS iran is offering more than what any other country is paying or offering ..!! tip will cost us around 65-70% of bernet fuel while ip about 75-80%

the reserve is very small as compared to sui about 10% of sui, so we shouldnt expect a yield of more than 100-200 MCF
as our depend in WINTERis around 6 BCF(6000 MCF) while production is around 4.0BCF..so at best it will add only around 5-10% to our prodduction..we already are about 33% deficient in summer(we are self sufficient in peak summer)


iran gas pipeline will give us around 800MCF

Interesting post. It boils down to simple self interest. Nation states look after their interests. USA is no differant. There is no morals or love/hate in international relations. If your interests align than you are a friend, if they clash then there is possibility of hostility. It is simple, it is machiavellian.

Any nation state is measured by the quality of life it affords to it's citizens. By that measure UK, USA, most of Western Europe, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Australia etc are shining stars. We all know where Pakistan stands on this measure. Me, you and couple of million Pakistani's living abroad testify how great Pakistan has done.

Our elite have plundered and raped our country. They have turned Pakistan into a personal asset where the general population is shafted by the elite. How do the elite get away with this? Simple. Blame USA/West/Isreal and use Islam as a masking tape to cover up their plunder.

That is why the ordinary Pakistani never asks and makes the elite why he has no sanitation, no job, no schools, almost no medical care, no electricty, no law and order, streets are dirty etc.
 
Loll Pakistan itself can't do jack with those resources, Better bid them out than wasting time. Invite Indian companies too..

Oh, actually, great post. So let me tell the Pakistanis to do this the way you do this. Have an Indian (local) person as the CEO in your country, send some staff over to the contracting country for training (US, France, UK, etc). Tell this staff to start looking for senior jobs there as they are in and not come back. These people's core job is to promote India and give all jobs to Indians. Screw the country's laws that you are in. Just keep hiring Indians. Then get a few Westerners to go to India to do the work so it seems like the contracting company is "involved".

The people that went for training and got jobs there, will bring in the rest of the India there. Horray, you've f'd up the organization blindly in the curtain of "trade". The 13 million Americans are victim of your illegal ethical business dealings.

Here you are acting all arrogant....I'd love to take you back to 1995 and see how your life was. May be servign tea with an MBA?? I hate to call people out but arrogance is stupid and no one has to put up with it. I hope you'll be respectful with people / countries the next time
 
PAKISTAN is rich in all kind of resources ,
all we need is to explore them and properly manage and utilize them

BS US has never stood alongside Pakistan FOR Pakistan as an ally/friend. So called support has always been to further their own agendas. End off, they haven't and never will do anything out of the goodness of their heart.

A true friend/ally wouldn't sanction you. Provided everything whenever Pakistan needed it. where were they when we needed the F16s we paid for? where were they after we defeated the soviets for them?

The US is not a friend of muslims and never will be. It is all a show.

True Pakistan is being raped by the elites but who put them in power, the population so they should quit complaining or vote for some one on their merits/policies and not simply on biradari politics.

Until the voting system is not revolutionised as well as the mindset on voting the country will go downhill, corruption also needs to be curtailed by introducing capital punishment.
 
Actually as VCheng pointed out it is not a question of borders - All of iranian oilfields are located in West of Iran in area that has no semblance [ in geological terms ] to Pakistan.

We may be neighbours [ Iran-Pakistan ] but most of our geology could be from other side of the planet.The sad fact is [ self masturbating asides ] that the Indus Valley geology is very poor as regards to mineral/oil resources. Most of our geology is raw and very young in geological terms.

As a result we are almost bereft of any coal, iron, aluminium or oil. All are needed for modern industry. We have some gas but it is not sufficient for our burgeoning poulation.

All that hype about Thar coal is just that ...... hype. I have in my back garden rusty coloured soil. Any inspection would reveal that as indicative or ferrous ore which contains the elemant iron. Any further analysis would also probably reveal traces of gold and coal.

That does not mean I can set up a mine there and get rich overnight. The truth is elemants such as Iron etc are found almost everywhere. The problem is extraction. You have to have a certain purity before it becomes economical to mine. In the case of coal anthracite the highest grade has most carbon and thus the heat content.

Lower grade coal such as the Thar coal has very low heat content but very high moisture content therefore making it uneconomical. That explains why we do not have a long line in Islamabad of multinationals ready to sign contracts. Rest assured if we discovered large deposits of high grade coal or iron we would have multinationals falling over each other to sign contracts with Pakistan.

Coal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Compare Australia which exported 400 million tons of coal to China and Japan earning it $40 billion. It also exported $55 billion of Iron ore most of which went to our friend China. If we had these resources locked away in our soil you think the Chinese would be going to racist Australians for their Iron imports?

Just think about it, between coal and iron [ both bounty of nature ] Australia earns nearly $95 billion that is almost 4 times more than our combined exports. Thats what you call resource [ lucky ] rich country.

Daily Times - Leading News Resource of Pakistan

So guys irrespective of daku Zardari we are going to continue to be resource starved country - Maybe the mullahs could force every Pakistani to pray 5 times a day, kill all the blasphemers than Allah Almighty might decide to change our geology so that out pours oil, gas and the sandy soil turns into iron, coal, gold, zinc, manganese etc.

Then Pakistan would also be blessed like USA or Australia is !!!

The most of coal found in thar is lignite. If not fuel the same can be converted into fertilizers(soil conditioners. If this is not as big a use as wanted then why not try this
Coal-water slurry fuel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The lignite coal is used as a fuel in power stations worldwide.
Lignite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As for the last paragraph, we may have been blessed but it is the fault of us humans that we are ignorant. Thanks, no offence.
