Earlier, it was expected that petroleum prices in Pakistan will be increased by up to Rs9.60 during the upcoming fortnightly review for November 2025.

The anticipated price hike was largely attributed to a reduction in diesel production in the Gulf region, caused by ongoing maintenance at a major oil refinery in Kuwait.

Meanwhile, oil prices jumped about 2 percent in international market on Friday on supply fears after a Ukrainian drone attack hit an oil depot in the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossiysk, a major export hub.

Brent crude futures rose $1.24, or 1.97%, to $64.25 a barrel by 0315 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude rose $1.25, or 2.13%, to $59.94 a barrel.

The attack early on Friday damaged a ship in port, apartment buildings and an oil depot in the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossiysk, injuring three crew members of the vessel, Russian officials said.
