Gulf Today, Staff Reporter

The Sharjah Government Media Bureau stated that a technical malfunction occurred in the gas plant in the Sajaa area in Sharjah that caused a power outage in some areas in the city of Sharjah.

The competent work teams were able to quickly restore the electricity to the areas of Sharjah city after a sudden technical defect occurred that caused the non-flow of gas to the power stations.

A technical malfunction in the gas plant in the Al Saja’a area in Sharjah caused the closure of the valves of the gas pipelines feeding the stations of the Sharjah Electricity, Water and Gas Authority, due to the emergency procedures used in the gas plant, which are closed directly when technical malfunctions occur, and the specialized work teams proceeded to isolate the main valve feeding the stations electricity in Sharjah, and 80% of gas was restored through it, which contributed to the complete restoration of electricity.

Work is also underway to address the major technical defect and restart the entire gas complex.
