Ali Pervaiz Malik, Pakistan's Petroleum Minister, stated that Qatar kept providing gas to Pakistan at rates of $12 and $13 rather than the market price of $30, overcoming difficulties within the energy sector.

This remark drew attention to the part Qatar played in assisting Pakistan to fulfill energy needs during periods of pricing and supply difficulties.

Malik additionally disclosed that daily liquefied petroleum gas consumption in Pakistan reaches roughly 6,500 to 7,000 tonnes. Domestic output accounts for about 2,000 to 2,500 tonnes of that amount, with foreign purchases covering the rest of the requirement.

Such data emphasizes the dependence of Pakistan on foreign energy shipments to cover the difference between local output and nationwide consumption.
