In Pakistan have not yet evidence of the presence of oil, experts

Karachi(94news) No evidence has yet been found regarding oil reserves in the sea, while Prime Minister Imran Khan has announced several times that Pakistan has come very close to discovering the world's largest oil reserves, the prime minister said that experts have found evidence of vast oil reserves.

Information has been received from the sources of the Ministry of Petroleum that no such evidence has come to light so far. Petroleum sources said that 3,700 meters have been drilled so far, which is too low for oil discovery, adding that oil reserves may exist at a depth of at least 5,500 meters, so it would be premature to say that oil reserves exist.

According to reliable sources, 'Kekra 1' well which is located in G Block was drilled to 4900 meters on January 9, but pressure was felt due to which the soil was rising up, then it was closed and drilling started from one side, which failed and now drilling is being done from the other side, which has reached a depth of 3700 meters.

More 1800 meters of drilling is required, after which it will be known whether oil is present or not. Sources say that they do not know who is briefing Imran Khan on this matter. But due to this statement of the Prime Minister, the stock market has made a lot of difference and now if the reserves are not discovered, many people may lose billions.
