Petroleum, or gasoline, is obtained through fractional distillation of crude oil. Petrol prices in Pakistan frequently change and can be found here easily.

Compressed Natural gas (CNG)

Oil Prices in Pakistan

Petroleum is one of the most common fuels for vehicles around the world as well as in Pakistan. It is also known as gasoline and is available widely across the country. Petroleum, or gasoline, is obtained through fractional distillation of crude oil. Petrol prices in Pakistan frequently change and can be found here easily.

The quality of petroleum is determined with the help of its Octane number. The octane number shows how well the petroleum can resist knocking and provide efficient performance. There are several reputable petroleum providers in Pakistan, which include Pakistan State Oil, Attock Petroleum Limited, Total Parco, Shell Pakistan, and Hascol Petroleum. These oil refinery companies are responsible for the majority of petrol distribution in Pakistan.

For a long time period of time, Pakistan had a supply of low-grade petrol in the country while the rest of the world was using finer quality fuel in their automobiles. Even the most undeveloped countries had better quality fuel supplies than Pakistan. It was the year 2016 when Pakistan started to import better quality petrol with a higher Research Octane Number (RON), 92 to be exact. Today, most oil marketing companies in Pakistan refine RON 95 or 97 petrol.

 

High Octane Price in Pakistan

High Octane Petrol Price in Pakistan Today: Among the highest petrol prices in the world, Pakistan's high octane petrol commands a significant price due to its superior quality and performance benefits. Stay updated with the latest prices to make informed fuel choices.

NOTE: OGRA does not control Hi-Octane petrol prices in Pakistan. Thus, Hi-Octane prices vary across different Petrol Pumps.

 

Euro Fuel Emission Standards in Pakistan

Pakistan has officially adopted the Euro V emission standards to improve engine performance of our vehicles.This also helps create a greener environment for Pakistan's future generations.

Previously, Pakistan adopted the Euro II Emission Standards back in 2012, when Euro II was already outdated. Now, Pakistan has skipped Euro III and Euro IV to adopt Euro V standards in 2020 which was actually introduced in 2009 in other countries. Currently many countries are following Euro VI Emission Standards since 2014, and would switch to Euro VII which is expected around 2025.

Petrol Rate in Pakistan 2023

Petrol prices have always been a topic of frequent discussion in the Pakistani media. Still, there is a lot of misinformation that surrounds the process of price determination of petrol. There are several factors which play a role in setting petrol prices in a country.

Petrol and petroleum products are derived from crude oil. Starting from the exploration and production of crude oil, to the refinement and distribution process, several different industries are involved in providing the finished product of petrol. All of these industries add their incurred costs to the price of petrol. On top of all that, the government adds tax money to the price of fuel.

Within Pakistan, the international oil market’s rate also plays a huge role. Based on the value of the Rupee in the international market, the oil prices also fluctuate. Since 2018, due to the devaluation of the Rupee, the oil prices in the international market have also increased for Pakistan.

In 2021, the government of Pakistan tried to regulate petrol prices in the country by decreasing the tax margin. Although effective, the strategy was not a long-term solution. Issues like this are common for developing countries like Pakistan that highly rely on imported oil. This leads to inflation in the oil prices and makes it difficult for consumers to buy petrol.

The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) controls the petrol rates in Pakistan. OGRA has a practice of revising all fuel prices twice a month. The new prices are announced on the 15th and the last day of each month and usually remain in effect for the next 15 days. Moreover, petrol prices are different in different areas and regions of Pakistan. 

The petroleum prices in Pakistan are directly related to the global transformations of oil and gas. However, they are also affected by many other local factors such as the supply of petroleum resources in the country, economic conditions, political instability, etc. As a result, the public witnesses frequent ups and downs in the fuel prices. 

Highest Petrol Price in Pakistan:

The highest petrol price in Pakistan history was Rs 331.38 per litre in January 2023. Though it also occasionally looms around the 230 mark whenever petroleum products are in high demand globally, as is the case these days.
