Baker Hughes partners with OGDCL on Pakistan well optimization

Baker Hughes signed a multi-year contract with OGDCL to maximize production performance from OGDCL’s mature oil and gas fields in Pakistan. The agreement builds on a decades-long relationship between the two companies and supports Pakistan’s efforts to source more of its energy from domestic resources.

Baker Hughes will evaluate more than 120 wells across OGDCL’s Tando Alam Oil Complex and Pirkoh field and develop redevelopment plans aligned with OGDCL’s production targets and economic objectives. The company will advise on integrated technology and digital solutions intended to improve production performance and recovery across the mature assets.

Following the evaluation phase, Baker Hughes and OGDCL will move to operational execution, which is set to include AI-enabled chemical injections to improve flow assurance along with well workovers and interventions aimed at restoring output from underperforming wells. The agreement was signed in Islamabad at OGDCL headquarters on 2 September 2026.
