Pakistan’s oil and gas production showed positive growth in the first week of January 2026, with oil production rising by 1.1% week-on-week (WoW) to 65,444 barrels per day (bopd), driven by increased output from northern fields and reduced curtailment, according to data compiled by Arif Habib Limited.
Gas production also reached 3,012 million cubic feet per day (mmcfd), marking its highest level since mid-March 2025. This surge was fueled by increased gas supply to the fertiliser and power sectors, coupled with reduced curtailment in the northern region.
