Pakistan’s regulator raises LNG price by $0.06 per MMBtu for February, increasing supply cost for gas utilities and potentially adding pressure on energy consumers.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority has issued a notification announcing an increase in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) prices for February.
According to the notification, LNG prices have been increased by $0.06 per MMBtu. Officials say the adjustment reflects market trends and import cost changes, as energy prices continue to move up and down globally.
Under the revised rates, LNG supplied through the system of Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited has been set at $11.33 per MMBtu.
Similarly, LNG supplied to Sui Southern Gas Company has been priced at $10.27 per MMBtu.
Energy analysts say even small increases can have a ripple effect across industries and households, as gas prices often trickle down into electricity generation and production costs.
The revised prices are part of regular monthly adjustments made in line with international LNG market rates and supply agreements.
