Preface
Department Of Commerce has always tried to make its students be
familiar with the different techniques in the field of Project
Appraisal so that they can understand & present the concepts of
Project Appraisal in the todays world of progress & development.
The importance of principal work almost exists in every
professional field. Practical knowledge makes man a technical
person who enables to do every work efficiently regarding his
profession. The very distributive feature of the degree of Business
Administration is that it stresses more on the practical aspects of
study especially the 3rd semester. Our teachers have extremely
realized this importance & they use all the tacts to expose us to
the real field circumstances.
Project Appraisal has become a common phenomenon now-a-
days. We have tried our level best to fulfill the requirements of the
topic. Every effort has been made to incorporate all the available
means of information to make this assignment comprehensive. We
tried our best to accomplish our work.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
We are the fresh and energetic students of MSC A&F. We are going to start a new
business. We have selected the business of CNG Station. We have selected this
business because there is so much potential in this business. Especially todays there
is increasing number of cars. This is also a challenging project. This will be the test
of our hidden qualities.
CNG is environmentally friendly fuel since it unleaded and releases less than 10%
carbon mono oxide as compared to petrol and is an indigenous fuel commonly known
as natural gas and Sui gas. Natural gas is compared to high pressure for storage, for
this purpose, a compressor and storage facility is installed, the vehicle to run on
CNG, it is suitably modified to have a vehicle storage cylinder, high pressure has
piping and filling system and other items like pressure regulator, pressure has relief
value, solenoid switch etc.
We are going to produce only one product i.e. CNG. We are not producing any
other product. We are following the single product approach. So the only problem we
have to face is the production problem. Growth of sale does not matter. At initial
stage we will be producing at 75% capacity.
We purchased our plant from abroad and as well as from local. Plant reached at
site at January 1, 2010. Our plant installed on March 1st 2010. It started its trial run on
March 2010. It started its commercial operation on January 1st 2011.
The financial ratios of our company are increasing. Its means that our company is
prosper day by day. So the company is doing very well business and there is no
chance of loss.
Means of Finance:
There are two types of means of finance. One is from our own
resources and other is from taking debt from Bank. The ratio is of debt
and equity is of 60:40

TASK MONTHS
INTRODUCTION OF COMPANY
The company is doing partnership business. There are three sponsors of
the company which are the partners of the company also. The company is doing
legal business. Profit earned by the company is distributed among the members
of the company.
We are going to produce only one product i.e. CNG. We are not producing any
other product. We are following the single product approach. Growth of sale
does not matter. At initial stage we will be producing at 75% capacity.
We purchased our plant from abroad and as well as from local. Plant
reached at site at January 1, 2010. Our plant installed on March 1st 2010. It
started its trial run on March 2010. It started its commercial operation on January
1st 2011.
CNG stands for Compressed Natural Gas. It is one of the most viable
alternatives to traditional fuel energy resources for the automotive industry. CNG
is low in pollutants, high in calorific value and heat yield, economical and
available in abundance globally
The business of CNG filling station has marked its place in the country through
growth during the last few years. This growth has opened up new opportunities
and more CNG filling stations are being setup all over Pakistan. The prime
reason for this is the low cost of the fuel. Along with that, CNG fuel is less
hazardous to the environment as compared to the traditional petroleum fuel
No person can set up CNG station without first obtaining license from the
Authority i.e. Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority Islamabad under Rule 6 of CNG
(Production & Marketing) Rules, 1992. Initially OGRA issues provisional license
for a period of 2 years for setting up CNG station. After obtaining provisional
license from the authority, the licensee is supposed to start construction of the
station and also obtain NOCs from the local authorities and a license from
DEPARTMENT OF EXPLOSIVES on form B .
MARKET ANALYSIS
The commercial application of CNG technology now forms an important element
of
Governments petroleum policy, which is reflected in the efforts made by the government
For installing so many CNG stations in the country and converting 600000 vehicles on
CNG fueling system till February 2005.
Market Demand:
At present there are more than too many vehicles, which have been
converted to CNG fuel. Due to the increasing prices of petroleum products, the
trend of converting cars to CNG fueling system has been on a rise. However,
there exist a large number of people who were reluctant to convert their vehicles
from petrol to gas due to safety concerns. Recently, many car manufacturers
have started manufacturing the cars with built-in CNG fueling system. This
change has led to enhancing the confidence in the minds of the general public
regarding the safety concerns, and now, more people are inclined towards
purchasing these factory-fitted CNG fueling system cars.
Present Demand:
The present demand of CNG is very high because the cost of CNG is very cheep as
compared to petroleum, diesel and LPG. This is also beneficial for the life of
engine of vehicles so the people prefer the CNG.
Now the transporters also converting their vehicles in to CNG vehicles because
cost of CNG is very low and in this way they can earn high profits and engine of
their vehicles also saves so the demand of CNG is increasing day by day. Now a
day the demand of CNG is so high that there is supply and demand gap
generated for CNG.
The use of CNG in vehicles brings an added blessing that it is much less
polluting than regular gasoline (petrol). The emissions coming out of CNG
vehicles consist of water vapors and carbon monoxide (CO).
With Pakistan going full ahead with making CNG as the primary fuel source
for transport, one concern is that Pakistan is depleting its Natural Gas reserves
faster than ever before.
Distribution channel:
No distribution channel is required for CNG. The customers come at CNG
station and fill their cars with CNG. So no distribution channel is required.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
The main machinery at CNG station is compressor. The technology involved
in machinery is very advance and technical. Pakistan is not to advance to
produce or manufacture the compressor because Pakistan has no technology to
manufacture it so the whole technology involved is imported from the Canada
because Canada is very advance in technology and manufacturing high standard
of compressor. Dispensing machine also imported from Canada. Compressor
imported from Canada is very good in its function. It contains two generators one
is run by the natural gas and other is run by electricity. So that in case of
absence of electricity or Sui gas other generated can be used. This compressor
converts the Sui gas into CNG with the help of 3 way pipelines and cooling tower
then this compressed natural gas is transferred to Dispensing machine to
vehicles and system is control by Control panel.
CNG has now become a major area of investment and is being actively
promoted as alternative fuel across the entirety of the automotive industry in
Pakistan. As a cheaper and environmentally friendly alternative, the shift to CNG
has proved immensely popular, especially in light of the spiraling price of oil.
With an exponentially growing market, there are growing challenges and
potentials for growth arising as well. Being one of the pioneers of CNG sector in
Pakistan.

Compressor:
Two compressors of 530 Nm/hr will be installed with appropriate storage cascades.
Sequential and three ways penal priority installed in separate room will be operated from
a control panel outside the compressor room.
COLLING TOWER:
When the compressor run it produces heat which should be minimize. For this purpose
we used cooling tower. Now the question arises how it work. Its working is very simple
it rotate the water in this way heat evolve out and temperature minimize
Storage Cascade
Priority Panel
Priority Panel for Vehicle Priority During rush hours, the compressor is
directly connected to the dispenser, bypassing then storage cascades/cylinders
with the help of priority panel, facilitating the refueling of vehicles at a faster rate.
. CNG Dispenser high flow dual hose Gas is filled into the vehicles with the help
of dispenser. This dual hose dispenser is capable of handling two vehicles at a
time.
Input Required
The main input for CNG is natural gas which is obtained from SNGPL. This is the main
input for the CNG then electricity is also required to run the compressor.
In the case when there is no electricity the diesel is also required to run generator , so
that the supply of CNG in the vehicles will not stop.
Some chemicals also used these chemicals include one type of acid and one type of base.
These two used in the cooling tower to purify the gas.

EXPLANATION:
The above is the chart that shows the brief process how GAS (SUI)
moves from different processes and finally reaches the ultimate vehicle in the
shape of compresses GAS.
S
First of all it enters into the FILTERS for purification purpose and this
consists of two filters. And then it enters into a TANK and then again enters into
the MICRO FILTER for further purification and finally enters into the main
compressor room. Here it is operated in a two ways, manually and Auto control.
After these it enters into the FOUR STAGE compressor machine for the
purpose of COOLING. This is a complex stage and the main purpose of this
machine is to just only compress the gas in order to make high pressure.
In the next step, it moves to the Priority PANEL. From where it is filled into
the GAS CYLINDERS and finally reaches the VEHICLES through the help of
DISPENSORS.
PERSONAL Analysis
Management
4. M. Bilal Partner
Requirement of Staff
Technical staff
For the well check and running of compressor a person is required which
should have done the diploma in Electrical engineering. So that he can
understand the working and function of compressor, and one helper is also
required having diploma in the electrical engineering.
There are ten or more persons required which should be metric. These staff
required to operate the dispensing machine for fulfilling the gas into vehicles.
Gas filling is so simple process and it is not a technical process so there is not
need for a special staff, which should have some specific kind of diploma. One
sweeper is also needed for the cleanness of the CNG station. And one security
guard is also needed for security purpose.

Interpretations
Current ratio is continuously increasing it means that current assets of the company
are increasing continuously or there is a decrease in the current liabilities. A good
company has a good ratio of at least 1.25 The station has above this standard which
shows a good financial position
There is a huge sales being earned on the assets which shows assets are being
utilized in a good manner.
Gross profit margin ratio shows the increasing trend because cost and sale price of
natural gas increase up to 5%.. So the gross profit margin ratio is increasing year
wise.
The operating profit ratio is showing the increasing trend which shows that the
business of company profitable and company is earning well profit.
The net profit margin shows that CNG industry has a good growth rate now-a-days
hence it will good in the future.
The cash ratio of company is very good in all the years. It means the company has
sufficient cash to discharge its liabilities.
IRR is 21% that is good for the company.

Weakness:
Recourses are going to be end
Security problem

Load shedding of sui gas
Threats
SAFETY FEATURES
CNG has four safety features that enable it to be inherently a safer fuel as
compared to gasoline, diesel or LPG.
a) CNG is lighter than air so if it first rises and dissipates into the
atmosphere, on the other hand fuels will puddle on the grounds,
should a leak occur.
c) CNG has to mix with air in a small range 4 to 14% by volume, for
combustion to take place. This is a lower range, as compared to petrol.
RECOMMENDATION
On the behalf of my feasibility report I would like to recommend that this business is
very profitable business. If the resources of natural gas increased and some precaution
are followed then we can easily start a new CNG station.
Government should also make such type of strategies and rules and regulations that a
new investor can easily enter in such type of business. There should be no barred for
entering in this type of business. OGRA and SNGPL should also be helping.
To finance such type of project the banks also provide loan on low interest rate. So
that the investors arrange the finance easily.
CONCLUSION:
The business of the company will flourish in the future because now-
a-days CNG has a high demand. We have good expectations from our
Project.
OGRA (oil and gas regulatory authority ) also giving same type of facility
when new CNG station is started banks also provide loan with low interest
rate. And machine is also imported easily. So this is concluded that this
type of business is profitable business.
