Total fuel oil imports for February stood at around 390,000 tonnes, a slight 0.9 percent lower than the previous month, figures from the Oil Companies Advisory Committee showed. Imports of high-sulphur fuel oil (HSFO) fell 20 percent to 260,000 tonnes, while imports of low-sulphur fuel oil (LSFO) climbed 88 percent to around 130,000 tonnes. The country's main buyer, Pakistan State Oil, had earlier secured a total of 890,000 tonnes of fuel oil for February and March through a tender, which means March imports are likely to be higher. Pakistan's requirement for the power generation fuel in the second quarter is likely to be steady, as PSO has issued a tender seeking similar volumes of 650,000 tonnes of HSFO for the period.
