The Economic Coordination Committee in Pakistan is expected to allow the marketing of higher-quality petrol from October with an estimated price increase of Rs2.75 per litre.
This is part of the petroleum ministry’s plan to introduce petrol, premier motor gasoline (PMG), one of three different grades of better-quality imports to replace the existing petrol of 87 research octane number (RON). The higher-grade PMG imports would include 92 RON, 95 RON and 97 RON.
Higher RON is considered an indication of better quality petrol that the petroleum ministry says will provide “reduced environmental impact due to lower emissions as a result of better engine hygiene, while simultaneously providing an enhanced motor vehicle experience to the customer"
