It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistan received the first batch of 100,000 metric tons of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) from Russia.
In a message on X (formerly Twitter), the Russian Embassy to Pakistan said that Moscow has delivered the first batch of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the amount of 100 thousand metric tons to Pakistan.
The LPG batch entered Pakistan through Iran’s Sarakh’s Special Economic Zone (SEZ). It added that Pakistan and Russia are holding consultations for the second LPG shipment.
In August, it was reported that Pakistan temporarily halted its imports of Russian crude oil as the refining process yielded more furnace oil than petrol, simultaneously, making arrangements of negotiating a long-term agreement with Russia for the import of oil at ‘discounted rates’.
