Pakistan is exploring the option of importing crude oil from the United States for the first time, aiming to promote balanced trade and expand energy partnerships.
The proposal is part of a forward-looking strategy, ahead of a scheduled visit by a Pakistani delegation to Washington for trade discussions.
A refinery executive shared that Pakistan may look into importing up to $1 billion worth of US crude matching its current oil and refined product imports.
If approved, this step could diversify energy sources and enhance cooperation between the two countries
