"Pricing policy: Ex-depot prices of automotive diesel have been deregulated since Jun 2002. Government was setting ceilings for ex-depot prices of other fuels based on an import-parity formula until Jun 2011, when these prices were also deregulated except kerosene. For LPG, government sets ceilings for ex-refinery or ex-processing plant prices of domestically produced LPG but not imported LPG. In 2012, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources reported on its Web site that fuel prices were being subsidized through adjustments in the Petroleum Levy.
Hedging: In Aug 2009, State Bank of Pakistan rejected the finance ministry’s proposal to hedge oil prices for a year. Hedging losses suffered by the Pakistan International Airlines in 2008 were questioned by the Public Accounts Committee of the National Assembly in June 2010.
Information: Oil companies are required to notify their selling prices to Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA), and the prices are posted on OGRA’s Web site by company and location. In addition, OGRA continues to compute and notify ex-refinery prices of diesel, kerosene, and gasoline (containing 10% ethanol) every month. Maximum prices of other fuels computed by Pakistan State Oil (PSO) are also posted for information. OGRA also posts the findings of inspections to check compliance and commercial malpractice."
