Poland Looks to Expand Investment in Pakistan’s Oil and Gas Sector

Poland has expressed a strong interest in expanding its investment in Pakistan’s oil and gas sector, where it already holds stakes worth more than $100 million, during a meeting between Polish Ambassador Maciej Pisarski and Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb on Monday. Ambassador Pisarski said Poland intends to reinvest locally generated resources into further exploration activities, underlining the sector’s potential for growth. He highlighted that Poland’s energy investments remain a key pillar of bilateral economic engagement and could be scaled up with closer collaboration between government ministries and private stakeholders. The envoy noted that bilateral trade has already crossed $1 billion, largely in Pakistan’s favour, and stressed the importance of broadening economic ties into energy, mining, and other resource-rich areas. He said Poland was keen to share technical expertise and regulatory support to deepen cooperation. Aurangzeb welcomed Poland’s continued commitment to Pakistan’s oil and gas exploration sector and said Islamabad is open to partnerships that encourage knowledge transfer, technology adoption, and sustainable development of mineral and energy resources. He also acknowledged Polish contributions as Pakistan continues to recover from devastating floods. Both sides reaffirmed their resolve to expand bilateral trade and investment, with a particular emphasis on energy and resource development as a foundation for stronger economic ties.
