President Trump announced a “massive” oil exploration partnership with Pakistan despite its lack of confirmed oil reserves. Energy analysts are skeptical, noting that Pakistan has never produced commercially viable offshore oil despite seismic surveys.

The United States and Pakistan hailed a trade deal on Thursday that Islamabad said would lead to lower tariffs and increased investment, but without specifying the level of tariff to be levied on Pakistani exports.

Claims of the discovery of oil and gas reserves in Pakistan repeatedly make headlines across the world. But every time it proves to be all gas and no oil. From Imran Khan's claims in 2019 till now, no concrete evidence has emerged.
