There should be 6 to 7 international quality luxury beach resorts being built stretching from Pasni to Gwadar showcasing the golden sandy beach along the Makran Coastal Highway.

The Baluchistan government after solving the security situation should look into this as tourism will boost local economy. It would be wonders if Kelpinski or Hilton opens a resort which will make this coast line next Sharm el Sheikh.

That is the future. May be 20 years from now.

In a major development, the Chinese lubrication Oil industry is ready to enter Gwadar Free Zone Phase II as an affiliate of China’s enterprise “Hengmei Technological Grease Company” has agreed to establish a lubricant blending plant in Gwadar.

According to a Gwadar Pro's report on Monday, Hengmei Technological Grease Company has already been registered and incorporated in the Security and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) and after signing the sub-lease deal agreement, it will make its debut in Gwadar Free Zone Phase II ushering in a brand-new chapter of lubrication manufacturing & industry in Gwadar Port.

Hengmei is an affiliate of the energy giant Sinopec, which focuses on the development and production of greases for upstream petroleum exploration, production, and refining. Sinopec namely China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation) is a Chinese oil and gas enterprise.

The Chinese government has gifted a desalination plant with 1.2 million gallons per day (MGD) capacity for the port city of Gwadar to provide clean drinking water to its residents.

According to, Gwadar lacks a clean drinking water facility whereas this desalination plant of 1.2 million gallons per day (MGD) capacity would help purify seawater and make it safe for human consumption.

The reports said that the desalination plant would be installed in Gwadar Free Zone to supply potable water to the Old City area along with Gwadar Port Authority (GPA) requirement.

The project would cost $12.7 million which would be financed by the Chinese government. However, a contracting company on the basis of EPC from CIDCA would be hired for the project execution.

Almost 70 percent of the population of Gwadar was facing acute water shortage and required some 7.5 million liters of water to feed its existing population whereas the desalination plant would provide clean drinking water for the water-parched masses, an official of the Ministry of Maritime Affairs told APP.

He added that the Ministry would be the supervising agency of the project. The project implementation agreement was signed on July 5, 2021, whereas the civil work would be kicked start this year and would be completed in 12 months .

The lawyer representing the Balochistan government on Wednesday told the Supreme Court that the province would receive $32 billion in 47 years from the Reqo Dik project.

Salahuuddin Ahmed further told a five-judge larger bench, headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Umar Ata Bandial -- hearing a presidential reference on the project -- that 25% of the proceeds gained from the gold mine project belonged to the provincial government.

Of this 25% share, 15% would be held by a holding and offshore company of Balochistan, he added.

Salahuuddin further told the court that the Balochistan government would receive 25% capital, 5% in royalty as well as facilities of corporate social responsibility and jobs.

CJP Bandial inquired when the project would be completed.

To this, the lawyer replied that 2.5 years would be spent on preparing the feasibility studies of the project.

Work on the Reko Diq project would be kicked off in the next five years after that, he added

Govt spending Rs100m to advance Balochistan Toposheets’ geological mapping project​

By Staff Reporter | The Nation Dec 6, 2022



ISLAMABAD-The government would utilise funds amounting to Rs100 million, during the current fiscal year, to advance an ongoing project of the Petroleum Division for the geological mapping of 50 Toposheets of ‘Outcrop Area’ to identify minerals’ potential in Balochistan province.
Last year, an amount of Rs30 million had been allocated for the project under the Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP 2021-22). “Under the project, 50 geological mappings of Toposheets of Outcrop Area, out of 354 unmapped Toposheets of Balochistan, are being carried out. The geological maps provide a bird’s eye view of the surface and (subsurface) distribution of various types of rocks and economic minerals that are found in a particular region,” according to an official document available with media.
Through the mapping, the Geological Survey of Pakistan (GSP) wanted to maintain a database for future exploration of the occurrences of metallic and non-metallic minerals potential, dimension stones, aggregates and limestone reserves for the industry. “These maps are essential for all future detailed geological works including, minerals’ exploration, civil engineering, soil surveys, land use, town planning, groundwater, earthquake hazards; environmental geology and soil conservation projects,” the GSP said in the project detail.
Worldwide experience suggests that geological maps of 1:50,000 scale provide the most useful information and meet the basic requirements of the majority of the demands, involving research in ‘stratigraphy’, structure and tectonics, sample collection for laboratory studies, mineral evaluation and identification of promising areas for further exploration of natural resources. According to the document, the total outcrop area of Balochistan is 335,360 square kilometer (524 Toposheets) out of which 108,800 sq km (170 Toposheets) have been mapped and published on a 1:50,000 scale and the maps are available.
The promising mineral potential outcrop area would be mapped under this project, following which its gained experience would be used in mapping the rest of the outcrop area. “This project will help map the outcrop area in detail on 1:50,000 scale and maintain a database for future exploration of the occurrences of metallic and non-metallic mineral potential, dimension stones, aggregates and limestone reserves for the industry in targeted potential areas of Balochistan,” the GSP said in the document. The information collected after geological mapping and laboratory testing of rock samples would generate a database for interpretation to lead the individual occurrences of mineral reserves and other natural resources. The studies would provide a platform for the exploration of mineral resources by using other geoscientific investigations like geophysical surveys and geochemical studies followed by drilling operations and contribute considerably towards the development of the mineral industry and mining sector.
