Saudi Arabian oil giant Aramco has officially opened its first petrol pump in Lahore, Pakistan, marking a significant step in the company's expansion into the South Asian nation's fuel retail sector.
The new station, located in a bustling area of Lahore, is the first of many planned by Aramco as part of its strategy to increase its downstream presence in high-growth markets. This move follows Aramco's acquisition of a 40% stake in Gas & Oil Pakistan Ltd. (GO), one of Pakistan's largest fuel retailers, earlier this year.
