What Is Diesel Fuel Used For in Pakistan?

Diesel fuel runs most of the country's heavy transport trucks, buses, tractors, and generators all depend on it. Since so much of the supply chain moves on diesel, a price hike here doesn't just hit transporters. It shows up later in the cost of food, cement, and pretty much anything that needs to be trucked from one city to another.

Why Do Diesel Fuel Prices Keep Changing?

A few things push the rate up or down at each review:

• International crude oil prices, since Pakistan imports nearly all of what it refines.
• The rupee-dollar exchange rate because fuel is paid for in dollars.
• Government levies and taxes added on top of the base price.
• Global shipping and refining costs which shift with supply and demand.

Diesel vs Petrol — What's the Difference in Price?

• Diesel usually costs more per litre than petrol.
• Petrol powers the smaller stuff — motorcycles, cars, everyday local rides.
• Diesel runs the heavier vehicles — trucks, buses, tempos.
• That heavier commercial use adds to why diesel costs more.
• Higher import costs play a part too.
