 Highlighting the immense growth potential for alternative sources of energy in Pakistan, FUELLING PAKISTAN represents a unique opportunity for experts and leading energy players from around the world to capitalise on the enormous potential that Pakistan’s energy sector holds for them. The largest trade exhibition in Asia, FUELLING PAKISTAN has attracted widespread participation from over 80 companies around the globe in the last three years and with each passing year, the success of this widely attended forum continues to grow.
The mounting interest of investors in Pakistan’s energy sector has been encouraged by the steady economic trends witnessed during the last six years with growth recorded at a yearly average rate of 6.6%. During the fiscal year 2007-08, despite an anticipated slowdown, Pakistan’s GDP grew by 5.8%, while foreign direct investment inflows reached US$ 3 billion. Pakistan therefore continues to remain an attractive investment destination for foreign investors and leading companies around the world.
 However, given the rising prices of oil, the demand for natural gas is growing at a much faster pace than the existing supply base of gas reserves can meet. Now more so than ever before, Pakistan needs investors who can bring in a steady supply of gas into the country and induct technical expertise and state-of-the-art technology and equipment into its oil and gas sector.  |  With the Government’s policies aimed at creating an investor-friendly environment, Pakistan has all the necessary
drivers for the adoption of top quality energy projects and is well equipped to deal with an influx of investments within its oil and gas sector.
As is the trend every year, Fuelling Pakistan will serve to highlight Pakistan’s growing focus on alternate energy sources like CNG, LPG and LNG and will provide a much needed platform to exhibitors for showcasing the latest technologies, products and services to an audience of potential investors and buyers from around the globe. |
