Pakistan is about to start building the White Oil Pipeline Project, an important step to improve the country’s oil distribution system. This project has received backing from the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), which is a key development for upgrading the country’s energy infrastructure.
The project is being led by major companies, including Pakistan State Oil (PSO), Pak-Arab Refinery Limited (PARCO), and Inter-State Gas Systems. The Frontier Works Organisation (FWO) will be in charge of the construction process.
The pipeline will stretch 477 kilometers and will connect important locations such as Machike, Thalian, and Taru Jabba. This new pipeline is expected to make the transportation of petroleum much more efficient. One of the main goals of the project is to lower transportation costs, which will benefit consumers and businesses alike.
Initially, the pipeline will have a capacity to move 7 million tonnes of oil each year, with the potential to expand this capacity to 10 million tonnes in the future.
This means that as the demand for oil increases, the pipeline can accommodate more shipments, ensuring that the energy needs of the nation are met effectively. Overall, this project is a crucial investment in Pakistan’s energy sector, aiming to create a more reliable and cost-effective oil distribution network.
