Pakistan receives Euro II emission standards Diesel from Kuwait

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has received from Kuwait the first consignment of improved-quality diesel that meets Euro-II emission standards.

 

Federal Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said sulphur content, which caused pollution in the environment, was 95% lower in the new diesel quality compared to the old fuel being sold across the country for decades.

 

 

 

“First PSO {Pakistan State Oil} cargo that arrived on Friday tested 250 parts per million (ppm) sulphur content,” he said.
