Gas & Oil Pakistan Ltd. (GO) today announced its plans to roll out its new and innovative fuel station concept “goLink” across Pakistan. The goLink Station is a mobile fuel station format that will enable for motorists easy access and convenient fueling services in their direct vicinity. It is designed to significantly reduce driving time for customers to find a petrol pump as it can be deployed on existing parking lots or paved areas.
Speaking at the occasion, Mr. Zeeshan Tayyeb, Chief Operating Officer for GO stated that “goLink Station will significantly reduce the cost of providing vital fueling infrastructure in Pakistan due to reduced space requirements and significantly lower initial investment with each mobile station saving approximately 500,000 liters of fuel for motorists along with 1,200 MTs of reduced carbon emissions every year. It is therefore ideally suited to serve residential, commercial, and business areas as well as remote/seasonally busy areas with much needed motor fuels. The goLink Station can also provide a safe and convenient way of fueling for the gensets operating in Pakistan.”
GO has partnered with ENOC Link, the Emirates National Oil Company’s (ENOC) mobile fuel delivery arm, to bring this unique industry innovation to Pakistan. The UAE is one of the most advanced fuel distribution markets globally, and a leader in technology innovation.
ENOC Group owns and operates ENOC Link, the digital mobile fuel delivery service in the UAE, created in 2019 as part of ‘Next’, the Group’s digital accelerator program. ENOC Link also runs uniquely designed eLink stations, a mobile fueling format that enables motorists and customers easy access and convenient fueling services. It does not require assembly and can easily move to a different location on the spot and is also equipped with innovative digital systems giving customers a new fueling experience.
GO’s goLink Stations will be equipped with various tank sizes with the ability to fuel up to four vehicles simultaneously, thereby cutting down on waiting time. The mobile station uses the latest international design and safety standards and complies with standard fueling regulations for petrol pumps and fuel distribution trucking. The goLink Stations are also equipped with innovative digital systems – like digital payment options, access to the GO Card loyalty program, etc. – giving customers a new fueling experience altogether.
Subject to regulatory approvals, goLink Stations will offer consumers a reliable supply of GORON 92, and GORON ULTRA 95 and GO Diesel fuels.
The ENOC Link team along with GO’s Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Zeeshan Tayyeb, visited Chairman OGRA, Member Oil, DG Explosives and DG Oil to explain the goLink Station concept and to kickstart the regulatory approval process.
The goLink Stations are expected to start operations within 2022 once regulatory approval process is completed.
