Byco Oil Pakistan and Pakistan State Oil have signed a product sale and purchase agreement which will ensure guaranteed sale of 65% of Byco’s petroleum products from its new refinery to PSO.
The agreement will help substitute present imports, particularly of PMG, HSD and HSFO products, and Byco will sell products to PSO against a confirmed letter of credit.
The agreed payment arrangements will benefit the refinery and ensure timely collection of its dues, which will greatly help in reducing circular debt, says a Byco Oil Pakistan press release issued on Monday.
The agreement was inked by PSO Managing Director Naeem Yahya and Byco Pakistan Country Business Head Oil Refining M Qaiser Jamal. Byco’s new refinery, with crude oil processing capacity of 120,000 barrels per day (bpd), is expected to attain mechanical completion by the end of June.
