Pakistan Shifts to Daily Fuel Price Revisions Amid West Asia Conflict
Pakistan has announced a shift to daily revisions of petrol and diesel prices to better respond to volatile global oil markets amid the ongoing West Asia conflict. The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) will determine and publish daily fuel prices along with the calculation factors, replacing the previous weekly system. This move aims to increase transparency and align domestic prices more closely with international trends. The government also highlighted plans for Turkish Petroleum to resume oil and gas extraction in Pakistan. Some petrol pump owners have opposed the deregulation policy and plan protests.
