Pakistan energy report

• Institutions & Energy Policy

  The Ministry of Energy oversees the energy sector through two divisions:the Petroleum Division, in charge of oil and gas supply, as well as of energy and mineral resources, and the Power Division. The Ministry was created in 2017 from the merger of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources and the Ministry of Water and Power.

• Energy Supply

  Oil:

  Oil production has remained stable at around 4.9 Mt since 2014. Production supplies just over 20% of the country's needs. Crude oil imports were over 10.5 Mt in 2018 and are steadily increasing (+8%/year since 2011).

• Energy Prices

  Gas:

  The residential gas price was US$0.75c/kWh in 2019. It had been stable between 2013 and 2017, but increased slightly in 2018. The industrial price is much higher (US$2.33c/kWh in 2019). Since 2014, it has been increasing rapidly (7%/year on average), despite a slight decrease in 2018.

• Energy Consumption

  Per capita consumption is about 0.52 toe, including 590 kWh of electricity (2018).

  The country's total consumption stabilized at 104.5 Mtoe in 2018, after a period of significant increase between 2014 and 2017 (4.2%/year); the progression was more moderate between 2008 and 2013 (1.5%/year).

• Issues & Prospects

  As part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) initiative, China has pledged more than US$50bn in financial support to improve Pakistan's transport and energy infrastructure in order to end its ongoing power shortage crisis and boost trade from China's landlocked north-west region to Pakistan's Gwadar Port.

In the Pakistan energy market report you will find the following tables:

• Economic Indicators: Annual historical data including population, GDP growth, imports and exports, inflation rate, energy security and efficiency indicators, CO₂ emissions.
• Supply Indicators: Historical data including oil and gas reserves, electric and refining capacity, energy production, power production and external trade. All are detailed by energy source
• Demand Indicators: Historical data including consumption per inhabitant, consumption trends, total consumption by energy source, final consumption by energy source and sector, and electricity consumption by sector.
• Energy Balances: Single table displaying the overall energy industry balance per annum, also graphically displayed by energy sub-segment.

The Pakistan energy market data since 1990 and up to 2018 is included in the Excel file accompanying the Pakistan country report.
It showcases the historical evolution, allowing users to easily work with the data.

Key Data included in the excelsheet:

• Economic indicators: Annual historical economic indicators, energy security, energy efficiency and CO₂ emissions.
• Supply indicators: Annual historical reserves, capacity, production and external trade (imports(+) exports(-) balance).
• Demand indicators: Annual historical consumption per capita, consumption trends, total consumption, final consumption (per energy and per sector) and electricity consumption total and per sector.
• Energy Balance: total and per energy.
• Pakistan Energy Prices: In addition to the analysis provided on the report we also provided a data set which includes historical details on the Pakistan energy prices for the follow items: price of premium gasoline (taxes incl.), price of diesel (taxes incl.), price of electricity in industry (taxes incl.), price of electricity for households (taxes incl.), price of natural gas in industry (taxes incl.), prices of natural gas for households (taxes incl.), spot price of Brent and CO₂ emissions (from fuel combustion).
