Meanwhile, kerosene oil experienced an exceptional surge of 70.46%, producing 13,170 thousand liters, while motor spirits output rose by 15.37% to 305,262 thousand liters. However, certain products saw sharp declines, with diesel oil (n.o.s.) plummeting 54.01%, petroleum products (n.o.s.) dropping 38.18%, and jute batching oil falling 69.03%. On the other hand, solvent naphtha and LPG witnessed robust growth, increasing by 32.09% and 26.08%, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking at the cumulative production from July 2024 to January 2025, HSD production stood at 3,315,892 thousand liters, marking a 6.34% increase, while furnace oil output declined slightly by 0.96% to 1,543,749 thousand liters. Jet fuel oil saw a 12.65% decrease, totaling 412,381 thousand liters, whereas kerosene oil surged 38.18% to 72,568 thousand liters. Motor spirits remained relatively stable, slipping 0.76% to 1,916,866 thousand liters. Other notable changes included a 50.92% rise in jute batching oil, a 31.86% increase in solvent naphtha, and a 3.80% decline in LPG production, which totaled 481,051 thousand liters. Petroleum products (n.o.s.) experienced a sharp 24.79% decline, reflecting shifting demand patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the refinery sector demonstrated strong growth in high-margin products such as HSD, while low-margin products like furnace oil showed a modest increase. The data underscores ongoing shifts in product demand, with refiners likely focusing more on high-margin fuels to enhance profitability while balancing production of essential lower-margin products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reference Link:- <a href=\"https:\/\/augaf.com\/pakistan-refinery-output-jumps-20-in-january-driven-by-high-margin-hsd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/augaf.com\/pakistan-refinery-output-jumps-20-in-january-driven-by-high-margin-hsd\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pakistan refineries production increases 19.59 percent during the month of January 2025 with notable gains in high-margin products like high-speed diesel (HSD) and declines in certain low-margin products like furnace oil.
