Wafi Energy invests in Pakistan’s energy storage and inaugurates new motor gasoline tank at Tarru Jabba

Wafi Energy Pakistan Limited inaugurated a 7.4 million litre motor gasoline storage tank at its Tarru Jabba terminal in Nowshera, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. This newly constructed facility expands Pakistan’s fuel storage infrastructure and marks company’s latest investment in Pakistan’s energy industry.
As Pakistan’s energy needs continue to grow, this new storage tank strengthens reliability of fuel supply for customers, including on major travel routes to the country’s tourism destinations. The inauguration ceremony was attended by representatives from the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA), led by Sohail Ahmed Tariq, Senior Executive Director (Enforcement), OGRA, alongside Wafi Energy Pakistan’s team.
Zubair Shaikh, Chief Executive Officer, Wafi Energy Pakistan, said, “Since 1947, this company has been serving Pakistan. I am proud of the team that built this tank and brought it into service. Pakistan’s demand for fuel keeps growing and we are continuing to invest in energy security for the country. Reliable supply depends on how much you can store and how close that storage is to your customers. This investment strengthens our ability to serve customers while supporting the continued growth of our Shell network across Pakistan.”
Construction of the new storage tank was completed over one year, with 300,000 work-hours delivered safely. The investment strengthens Wafi Energy Pakistan’s growing Shell retail network, which now spans more than 700 sites nationwide following the addition of 32 new sites in 2026. It is another step in the company’s long-term commitment to investing in Pakistan’s energy needs and supporting the country’s continued growth.
