• Govt and mining company conducting formal review of procurement plans for project • Minister hints at gas tariff relief for domestic consumers from July 1 ISLAMABAD: Pakistan and Barrick Mining Corporation are working on upgrading the security requirements of the multi-billion dollar Reko Diq Copper-Gold Project in view of the prevailing situation, resulting in increased security costs. A team of Barrick Gold is currently in Pakistan to discuss security upgrades, confirmed Ahmad Hayat Lak, chief executive officer of the Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL), one of the key Reko Diq partners. He told journalists that the Reko Diq project agreement had provisions for security arrangements and that the partners were discussing possible upgrades. He said both sides were conducting a formal review of security arrangements and procurement plans for the project. Lak added that the review, as required under the agreement, would suggest whether security upgrades and additional funding were needed, while stressing that Pakistan, as the host country, bore sole responsibility for protecting the site. He said lenders had expressed confidence in existing security protocols during a recent meeting in Canada, having completed their own due diligence before committing funds. New financiers are also showing strong interest in joining the venture, he added. Petroleum Minister Ali Pervaiz Malik said Barrick Executive Chairman John L. Thornton had recently led a high-level delegation to Islamabad to discuss the security situation and procurement strategy with the government. He said it was reassuring that Barrick, one of the world’s leading mining firms, remained committed to the project despite global and local challenges. The delegation also reportedly explored the acquisition of advanced heavy-duty equipment through competitive bidding and the expansion of the project’s lending and credit structures. ‘Relief in gas tariff’ The minister hinted at relief in gas tariffs for domestic consumers in the upcoming pricing review from July 1, instead of an increase demanded by gas companies.“You will hear good news” on gas prices, he said. He said the government had already decided to charge Rs2,000 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) for gas supplied to power generation, instead of Rs3,500 per mmBtu in the case of LNG, and that a formal summary would be moved for implementation shortly. A summary would be sent to the federal cabinet to align the pricing of this gas with local rates and shield consumers from higher costs, he added. The minister said local gas production had been increased by 400 million cubic feet per day in response to supply disruptions and that proposals had been prepared to address the chronic circular debt problem in the gas sector. Petroleum Secretary Hamed Yaqoob Sheikh said the division was optimistic about receiving a positive response from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) regarding concessions aimed at facilitating the upgradation of local oil refineries. He said the minister had made a strong case before the IMF and emphasised that failure to modernise refineries would not be in the country’s interest. Published in Dawn, June 4th, 2026

ISLAMABAD: A Senate subcommittee on Monday voiced alarm over widespread internet degradation and fuel theft from telecom sites, after being told that more than 9,200 incidents of theft and vandalism had hit about 16 per cent of the country’s cellular infrastructure in 11 months. The subcommittee of the Senate Standing Committee on Information Technology, chaired by Senator Sadia Abbasi, reviewed challenges posed to nationwide telecom service continuity. The committee was informed that Sindh recorded the highest number of 3,938 fuel theft cases across 31 districts, followed by Punjab with 2,827 incidents in 38 districts. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa reported 1,668 incidents across 25 districts, while Balochistan reported 716 incidents in 26 districts. During the briefing, officials of the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) said that persistent loadshedding had severely deteriorated service continuity by rapidly depleting backup batteries and exhausting local generators. To build long-term resilience, the PTA has engaged Nepra and the power division to secure dedicated priority power feeders and speed up deployment of smart transformers for critical telecom nodes. Separately, the Universal Service Fund (USF) and its quality assurance teams reported infrastructure deployments in Balochistan. While 80pc of target areas are identified through competitive bidding, severe security vulnerabilities and systemic diesel theft continue to undermine telecom operations. In response, the committee directed relevant departments to map high-theft hotspots and instructed district and provincial authorities to handle complaints strictly under the law. The panel also reviewed network modernisation steps, including recent spectrum auctions that expanded bandwidth by 480 MHz and the issuance of 5G commercial licences in March 2026. Infrastructure targets include raising average 4G speeds from 4 Mbps to 20 Mbps, mandatory rollout of 1,000 new sites annually, and introducing Voice over LTE and Voice over Wi-Fi services. To enforce compliance, the regulator has set stringent network downtime thresholds for cellular mobile operators. CMOs must now keep downtime to 5pc or less at the UC level, 3pc or less at the tehsil level, 2pc or less at the district level, and 1pc or less nationwide. The committee reaffirmed that internet access must be classified under essential services criteria. It directed all telecom operators to execute immediate safeguards against fuel theft to ensure national connectivity standards are met without interruption. Published in Dawn, June 2nd, 2026

Miami-Dade county officials agreed to pay HRP Group more than double the price for land on Fisher Island to protect fuel depot used by the cruise industry A three-way tug-of-war erupted in recent months over ownership of a property on Fisher Island – one of the wealthiest zip codes in the United States – that sits in Biscayne Bay opposite the skyline of downtown Miami. When TransMontaigne Partners, a Denver-based global energy company, put the parcel on the market in May 2024, interest ran high because that land represented the last remaining piece of real estate available for development on the island. The eventual winner of the bidding war was a Chicago-based developer called the HRP Group, which purchased the property for $180m in late September last year. The developer then announced ambitious plans to build condominium towers on the property at an estimated cost of $2bn. Continue reading...
