KARACHI: Pakistan State Oil (PSO), in continuation of its quest to improve the quality of fuels in Pakistan, has upgraded its products portfolio with the inclusion of the RON 97 high octane petrol under the brand name ‘Altron X Hi- Octane 97’.
RON 97 delivers superior performance to vehicles for a smooth and knock-free drive. The higher-grade RON results in extended engine life and reduced maintenance costs. As they result in better engine hygiene, the new RON 97 from PSO reduces the environmental impact due to lower emissions. Additional benefits of the new product range include better mileage, enhanced engine performance and a great driving experience for the consumer.
Being Pakistan’s flagship oil marketing company, PSO played a key role in materializing the vision of the Government of Pakistan and the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources (MNPR) by introducing higher grade RON fuels in the country for the very first time in November 2016.
PSO Managing Director and CEO Sheikh Imranul Haque said, “PSO is the most trusted Oil Marketing Company of Pakistan and we have earned that status by delivering the best fuel products to our customers in the hardest of situations. The launch of Altron X Hi- Octane 97 is yet another testament to Pakistan State Oil’s commitment to effectively meeting the changing needs of our consumers with fuel products that are at par with global standards.”
Improving fuel quality, and meeting the nation’s energy requirements have been key constituents of PSO’s mission, both of which are efficiently met by the company. PSO pledges to undertake initiatives that enhance our consumers’ fuelling experience and ensure nationwide availability of all its products.
Thanks to PSO for improving the quality of Petrol.
In short we are getting low quality petrol which causes following issues:
• Engine damage – resulting in regular faults and decreased resale value
• Increased engine noise
• Poor mileage
• Slow acceleration
• Engine shuts down on its own randomly
• Reduced top speeds
• Incomplete combustion causes more toxic emissions
• Modern cars are not designed for low quality petrol
