A major refinery project in Hub, Balochistan, is set to transform Pakistan’s energy sector and reduce reliance on imported fuel.
The $4.5 billion investment is expected to create jobs, support industries, and drive long-term economic growth.
Pakistan is preparing to establish its first deep-conversion oil refinery in Hub, Balochistan, through an investment estimated at $4.5 billion.
The project is being developed under the Greenfield Refinery Policy and is expected to play an important role in improving the country’s energy landscape.
The new refinery will help reduce Pakistan’s dependence on imported petroleum products by increasing local refining capacity.
Officials believe the project will strengthen energy security and ensure a more stable supply of fuel for domestic needs.
The facility will be equipped with modern refining technology designed to produce high-quality petroleum products that meet international standards.
It is also expected to encourage the growth of downstream petrochemical industries, creating new opportunities for manufacturing and exports.
In addition to its economic benefits, the refinery is projected to generate around 2,000 direct and indirect employment opportunities during both the construction and operational phases.
Industry experts view the project as a significant step toward industrial development, investment attraction, and sustainable economic progress in Pakistan.
The development reflects ongoing efforts to modernize the country’s energy infrastructure while supporting industrial expansion and long-term growth.
