Abstract

The study was conducted to establish the air quality data at the oil and gas field of LASMO. LASMO oil Pakistan limited, a subsidiary of LASMO U.K is engaged in exploring oil and gas field in Pakistan. The data has been obtained at Nara gas/oil field, located at 60km away from district Khairpur Sindh. Data was collected for the carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxygen, and total hydrocarbons.
