Oil Companies Advisory Council (OCAC) on Monday stated that current stocks of Petrol (Motor Gasoline) are continuously being replenished by OMCs from supplies being made available through local Refinery’s production & regular arrival of vessels carrying imported Petrol at the two ports namely; Karachi Port Trust (KPT) & Fauji Oil Terminal Company (FOTCO) at Port Qasim Authority (PQA). It may be noted that in the month of June, a total quantity of around 850,000 Metric Tonne (MT) of petrol is being supplied from the production of local Refineries & Imports to the Distribution & Retail Network of the Country. The current sales of petrol in the Country are exceptionally high (50 % growth) due to easing of COVID-19 lockdown in past few weeks (causing depletion of stocks) & low price of the product.
